Tent Lantern is what you always needed on your camping, but you didn't know it before today.

It turns your torch (flashlight or headlamp) from sharp and pointing into a diffused, cozy light source illuminating everything around. You can lighten your tent without constantly holding torch in your hand or blinding yourself.

Lantern has many uses: you can hook it in your tent, take it with you for a walk in darkness or put it on a table, as a stationary lamp. You can even use it as a decoration, especially if you put a colored light source inside or print it with colored filament.

Tested and approved by scouts!

 

How to use:

After Lantern has been assembled turn on your torch and put it inside, so that it will rest on the honeycomb at the bottom. Most shapes and sizes of torches should fit, including headlamps. If you have slender, tubus shaped torch, put the adapter inside first. You can use hook that is part of design, or put lantern on a table, stool, or simply on flat patch of ground.

 

Assembly:

Design consists of 4 parts:

  1. Main tube with honeycomb at the bottom and six holes at the corners.

  2. Lower cap with thin bottom and six pins at the corners on top.

  3. (optional) Hook

  4. (optional) Adapter to hold tubus shaped torch in place (if using headlamp, it won't be needed).

Just mount lower cap to the bottom of main tube putting pins of the cap into holes of the tube. They should fit tight and stay in place. Then you can put your torch inside, and slide the hook into holes on top of main tube. Put the adapter inside if you have slender, tubus shaped torch, to prevent it from falling to side. If your torch has string or belt, just lay it on top.

 

Printing:

It is designed to be printed as easy as possible. No supports, no fancy settings. Just place it with flat surface to printer bed and opening upwards.

  • nozzle: 0.4mm

  • layer height: 0.2 mm

  • infill: 15-20% (gyroid is recommended)

White, vanilla or other light colour of filament is recommended, and PLA will suffice to indoor (or in-tent) use. If your torch is waterproof, you can use PETG instead and put it outdoor. I have used Lithophane White PLA, because of its nice, consistent structure.
