Some of the most interesting and distinctive types of lighting are workshop lights and camping lights. Mainly their design, which differs from standard flashlights, makes them deserve a separate category. One of the main features demonstrated by camping lamps is the angle of illumination. They allow you to illuminate the entire area around you. They are the central point of illumination, so they cast light all around.
The first lamps of this type in mass production were simple kerosene lamps. This is one of the oldest mobile sources of lighting, and its inventor was a Pole - Ignacy Lukasiewicz. Thanks to the use of a small kerosene tank and a wick dipped in it, it was possible to illuminate the area around the lamp continuously. The glass holder protected the wick from gusts of wind or rain, so it was possible to use it regardless of adverse conditions. Today, you can still buy a kerosene lamp, but using it as a camping lamp, due to the heat generated, will be less practical and even dangerous. Nevertheless, for fans of the classic shape of the kerosene lamp, there are counterparts in which the kerosene reservoir has been replaced by a place for a battery, and the wick - by an incandescent bulb or LED. Thus, you can continue to enjoy the classic look of the lamp, while maintaining convenience and safety. Such models can be considered a tourist lamp.
One of the most important features a travel light must have is its ease of transport. To meet such a need, low weight and affordable size will be key factors. For the production of most modern models, polymers are used - from the body to the LED cover - but in more advanced models, glass is further used as a cover due to its higher scratch resistance. Making the body from polymer allows to keep the weight low, which brings ease of transportation. Most models also have additional seals, guaranteeing resistance to rain. Thus, you will be able to successfully use such a lamp regardless of weather conditions.
The most common power source for this type of equipment is standard stick batteries, so you can always carry a spare set or buy them anywhere. Alternative power options can be built-in rechargeable batteries, which often offer the possibility of recharging with powerbanks. Virtually every camping lamp also has a mounting hook, allowing you to hook it up anywhere or carry it more conveniently.
Another distinctive type of lighting is lamps for the workshop. Such models are designed through the prism of obtaining the greatest possible resistance to all sorts of external factors. Such lamps must stand up well to dust, dust, be resistant to steel filings or falls. To guarantee the durability of such construction, durable aircraft aluminum is most often used for their production. For stable positioning of such lamps, most often there are either stable stands, which also allow adjusting the angle of incidence of the light, or in the case of more mobile versions of such lamps - strong magnets. This type most often uses built-in rechargeable batteries, which you can charge using mains chargers or docking stations.
