Not knocking the Lantern at all, but I have to correct you there—Lantern outputs ~30 mW, Aerolamp outputs 100 mW.
But yes, I’m excited for the V2 Torches! They could be a really great portable solution. Aerolamp can be used portably but I’d really prefer that people only do that if they’re going to put it 8+ feet up and not just leave it on a countertop...
It’s a fair point about nonparametric lamp failures. We aren’t really seeing many of them with the ushio bulb+ballast but you never know—this industry is young and there’s lots to learn
