(I can charge batteries at a neighbor's.)  It performed well:  bright and easily carried with the battery attached.  Seems stable on the battery, doesn't knock over easily.

Battery life is decent, but for the price it would be nice if it was LED so you didn't have to worry about bulbs and the battery life would be longer.
