Do floating lights exist? Absolutely! We are currently in the season of warm nights, roasting marshmallows around the campfire, and family barbecues in the backyard (appropriately socially distanced, of course!). When the sun goes down, there’s no reason to stop the party, especially when you have the right lighting. For backyards, we are used to just the normal built in lights. For camping, we have the typical lantern. For backpacking trips, we put on the trusty headlamp. But what if there was a lighting source that could work in all of those situations and more?
The floating light also known as the globe lantern is a play on the classic camping lantern with a versatile twist. The NoBox Rechargeable Global Lantern is a compact LED light that has legs with 3 different positions and is able to be oriented in 4 different ways. It can run for 25+ hours on the lowest setting making it perfect for places where you don’t have the ability to plug in. And the best part of it: this lantern is waterproof and it floats! All in all, it’s a lighting source that is sure to keep the fun times rolling even when it gets dark out. “Why versatile?”, you ask. Well, let’s look at some of the ways we can use it.
Possible Uses for Floating Light
The floating light works as a pretty good ball to toss in the pool, too!
-
Pool: Imagine this: It’s the middle of the summer and the kids are making the most of the warm night air, swimming in the backyard pool until parents call them in to sleep. And then, after the kids go to bed, the parents jump in for a little jacuzzi session to wind down from the day. Throw that floating light in to make the whole night experience that much better. Now the kids can see when they swim underwater and parents get some nice ambient lighting as they enjoy the rest of the night to themselves.

Decorative Floating Lights: Maybe you’re jumping in with the COVID trend of backyard weddings, or maybe you’re trying to spice up the vibes for your next dinner party. You can get a few floating lights as decoration and throw them in your pool, stick them in the centerpiece of a table, or hang them along a walkway. Not only do they serve a practical function of lighting up a space, but also serve as a vibe booster for any type of gathering you have, as formal as a wedding, or as casual as a backyard barbeque.
-
Emergency Lights: One of the best features of the floating light is the ability to position it in different ways using the swivel legs. You can move the legs around to set it up on your bedside table as an emergency night light in case the power goes out. Pro tip: Always keep it in the same place, so that if anything happens you know exactly where to find it. Make sure to keep it charged and it should last you just the right amount of time until your power switches back on. If you need to get around the house, simply move the swivel legs, so you can hold the light like a lantern.
-
Night Light: Similar to the idea of the bedside table emergency light, your kiddos will love using this light as a bedtime night light. Use it at a higher setting to read their favorite bedtime stories and switch it down when it’s time for the lights to go out and fall asleep.
-
Camping/Glamping: This is probably the most obvious use of our floating light, yet it is still one worth mentioning here. Because of the versatility of this lantern with its adjustable legs, floatability, and different setup options, you can find many different uses for this lantern on all of your outdoor adventures. Bring it out into the lake for a late night swim under the moonlight. Set it up on your picnic table as you enjoy dinner. Set it by the campfire so you have enough lighting to put your perfect s’more together. And hang it in the tent as you get ready to snooze after a day well spent.
-
Sunset Picnic: Who’s ready for date night? This floating light is ready to accompany you on the perfect sunset picnic date with your partner, or even with your best friends. Step one: find a beautiful spot. Step two: Pack up a basket full of food (and let’s be real, some fun drinks too!). Step three: Lay out that blanket and set up your lantern right in the middle. When it gets dark, you don’t have the end the conversations and good times. Simply turn on the light and continue enjoying the night.
-
