Cool, but i rather have a real lantern, and Mp3 player.
They should of design it to work with two AA batteries, or four AAA batteries cuz not many places sell batteries in packs of three just packs of two or four. meaning the consumer have 1 unused battery when he used up three of the AAA batteries's power from the pack of 4, but 1 battery be unused, but you need 2 more fresh batteries to run it, so you need to buy another pack of four.
I guest if he buys 6 AAA bateries like 3 packs of 2 AAA batteries will make there be no left over batteries, or buy 3 packs of 4AAA batteries =12 AAA batteries. also work , or buy a pack of batteries with a # of batteries that can be divided by 3 without a remainder. But, it's kind of complicated to do math when buying batteries.
