can this lantern be used indoors like in a power outage

No!! It uses a fuel, that when burned, emits carbon monoxide. ONLY use outdoors.

On case of true emergency yes, but in normal outage I won't use indoors... Some odor & don't know about toxicity of exhaust gas...

Yes, it is. I would make sure you had it on a fire retardant surface. I have used ours both indoors and out. I mainly use ours on our boat. But is great if your power goes out you will bea able to cook.

Hello, Thank you for your inquiry! The sky lanterns are meant to fly, they can not be used like lamps. They should also not be anchored down once they are lit that can become a fire hazard. I would recommend using a basic round paper lantern if you would like to use it for decorations, those will work out better. Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any further questions, we would be happy to assist you. Customer Service RepresentativeJust Artifacts1-866-620-8328

Excellent question. I will wait to see answer before buying this lantern as I want to use rechargeable batteries with it.

No. Doesn't work indoor for very long either. Mine lasted 2 weeks before it stopped working.

I'm in Rhode Island. I use it indoors without issue. I have an 10-watt LED bulb in my back porch light and it works fine all-year. You will have issues with batteries is the cold. They produce less current when they are cold. http://batteryuniversity.com/learn/article/discharging_at_high_and_low_temperatures

Absolutely NOT. It needs (by code) to be hardwired to a direct power source. That's the whole purpose- when the power goes out, the emergency lights come on. You can wire it to the power BEFORE it enters the light switch, but not after (controlled by) the light switch.

They are great for indoor but not enough power for outdoors. You will need halogen lights to do that from Home Depot .

These lights were meant to use indoors. You can use it outdoor, but it must be completely protected from the elements. Water damage will also void your 2 year warranty. We hope this helped! Happy Growing

The light is battery powered, so can be used ANYWHERE. I'm using mine in the freezer of my fridge, which did not have a built-in light, and it has worked perfectly for this use!

yes, we used 2 of these lamps for a dinner preparation when the electricity went out. Had one lamp sitting on top of the refrigerator & one light in the dining room.

I have not used it outdoors at night time in that type of lighting situation however I use it to light my entire main floor of my home when we have a power outage and I find it very sufficient lighting.

The larger lantern would be better. It works great for power outage. It is easy to take one off to go into another room and leave the others in living area. I bought this small one for grandkids to use for reading in bed and in their tent.

Ours are used indoors but I would think that in a waterproof enclosure it would work fine. It puts out quite a lot of light for the low power consumption.
