Love it but..

I love this light but the multiple colors stopped working and I am unsure how to get the colors back. Has anyone else had this problem?

Lights

I have all three sizes. I can’t say one particular size is my favorite. They all have great use for different purposes. I have four mini ones. One is on my backpack just in case I need a light source on the road. I love them for ambience and just in case for black outs. They last for four hours on high brightness. I have dropped the mini one a few times. Got scuffed a little but not to the point where it’s not useable. The big and middle one have so many different light modes. I’m a big fan of the fire light but I feel it’s the best on the medium light. There is a lock mode too. You can charge your phone and the best part is their portable. They are great as gifts but there just pricey. I haven’t got them wet yet so I can not speak on that. The mini is great because it has a bungee rope to hook onto anything. The others have hooks to make like lanterns. This won’t disappoint you.

Versatile, easy, multi-purpose lantern

Bought this for the high powered light for emergencies, the warm lantern and red light for reading and late night musings. Great lantern. Very versatile. Long lasting for multiple nights out camping with hook to hang it.

5000 Points For My Bio Lite 500

I love my BioLite 500. It works immediately out of the box. It really lights the place up. It has 5 other colors, it is just the neatest gadget since sliced bread. You can get the smaller lights or the hanging lights too. I love their lights!! And they have more camping gear to look at and buy.
