Lykt is Norwegian for lantern, and that’s all it tries to be: a soft, even light for the table, the tent or the dock. The frosted diffuser spreads the glow without glare, and the dial on top fades from candlelight to full brightness in one smooth turn.

The cap seals against a moulded gasket, so rain, spilled tea and the odd swim never reach the battery. On its lowest setting it runs for close to a week of evenings, and the USB-C port hides under a flap that closes with a click.
