Swank Camping Advice

[innerSpaceman]

I am not a fan of traditional lanterns precicely because they can be much brighter.

Drowning out the firelight is not something I enjoy. Granted, we need light around the table(s) to attend to business at night (mostly bear-proofing in a drunken and sleepy state), but brightness rivaling the sun is not necessary.

Ah, but they can be dimmed quite a bit - which is how I had it most of the time (at the campfires).
