  • Needs an update

    Definitely need an update

    So many things are buggy

    Very disappointing
  • Trash

    The Bluetooth never connects to the battery pack and the battery pack never turns off. You can not turn the fan on. Bio lite does not have good products
  • Horrible App. Doesn’t Reflect Well On The Company

    I’ve spent a lot of money on Biolite products only to realize they offer zero support. The app to the base lantern xl hasn’t been updated in YEARS! What started as a great idea, company with excellent products is fizzing out and letting their customers down. There is a lot of other products out there that I’d rather buy now.

    Nothing the app is supposed to do works. The lamp is nothing more than a heavy brick with light.

    I’m not buying from these charlatans ever again.

  • Battery Indicator Does Not Work

    I’ve had the Base Camp Lantern XL for 5 years and use it sparingly. The lamp works ok, but the app is supposed to tell you how much life is left on the battery charge and it does not even come close to how much the lantern says it does. This wasn’t always the case… when it was brand new it worked. It’d be nice if BioLite would update the app or offer a fix but it looks like they have a habit of abandoning their products and discontinuing support for them.

  • Requires an update and overhaul

    Not sure what’s going on with the app but it’s not working. Went to use the app to control the base Lantern XL only for it to not be able to find my unit, but somehow was able to find six (6!)others. What is going on BioLite?
  • Brilliant

    I downloaded the app and was using it to control my fire pit in under 30 seconds.
    It works brilliantly 5 stars
  • App is not stable

    Constantly have to re-pair which means that the proximity control is virtually worthless. Gives completely inaccurate readings as to remaining battery life.
  • Decent app, but major bug with remaining charge

    The app has some useful functionality for dimming and brightening the light, plus the ability to store preferred settings for different moods.

    My main grievance with the current version is that it only ever indicates between 20-40 mins of charge left on the lantern even when fully charged.

    This is going to make it really hard for us to understand how much battery power we’re consuming while we’re away camping for the next 3 weeks - which is the main reason we chose to buy it.

    Would appreciate a fix for this asap, but judging from the update release history it looks likely there are only yearly releases - so I don’t hold out much hope.
