Introduction

A good camping flashlight will offer focused and bright light to supplement the light of your camping lantern.

Step One
Look for a flashlight that's guaranteed to be corrosion-resistant, scratch-resistant and waterproof. This should be easy to find for as little as $10.

Step Two
Consider a flashlight with an adjustable beam.

Step Three
Purchase a flashlight that converts to a lantern or freestanding candle for maximum ambience.

Step Four
Select a flashlight that's small enough to fit into your jacket or pants pocket so it's easily accessible after dark. Many mini lights are available that offer intensive light despite their small size.

Step Five
Purchase a biteable handle that slides onto your mini light, allowing you to hold the light between your teeth while freeing your hands. These can be found for a little more than a dollar.

Step Six
Consider buying a headlamp instead of a flashlight, or a headband designed to hold a mini light. This will allow you to keep your hands free for tasks.
