Hey everyone, it's Evangeline here at etrailer.com. And today, we have the Goal Zero Skylight. This is gonna be a portable tripod light, great for overlanding, camping, setting up your space. If you want a large floodlight that is adjustable in terms of brightness and also height, this might be the one to look at. This is an up to 6,000 lumen light that can go from four feet up all the way to 12 feet up. And when you turn those lights on, you can get up to a 300 foot diameter beam radius.
Here we are in one of our installation studios. I couldn't quite find us an empty room that was 300 feet in diameter, so we aren't quite able to see that full radius of light. But still, even in this tall studio, we have a good amount of light output. This light has four settings, by the way. The first setting is gonna be off, but once you turn it on, you can then go from low, medium, to high output at 6,000 lumens.
To cycle between those settings, you have this switch. The switch also is pretty much where you're going to plug this into your power source for when you need to charge the lights. And you can see our LED lights here also indicate the battery level. So if I needed to turn the light on or off, I would long press this button. Once the button or the light is on, you just press it once, and then you can cycle through the different output settings.
The lowest setting is gonna be 400 lumens, and then you can go all the way up to 6,000 lumens. Choosing which light output will depend also on how long your battery will last. What I was a bit curious about was how do the pedals work and maneuver around to really block off one side of the light. So here we have our pedals down, and in the down position, they do a pretty good job of blocking that. There's a little bit of light seeping around the edges, but enough where I'm not blinding my neighbor to one side.
And I have two pedals up illuminating the garage door pretty well. We have a very large and wide beam, and it does seem pretty diffused, so nothing too stark and in your face. So this could be helpful in a campsite where you wanna light up your vehicle or camper but not blind everyone else around you. This light stores into this hard plastic case. So if you're someone that has your trailer or your vehicle set up for overlanding and camping, this makes it easier to lug around as well as store safely and securely. Now, to set this up, it's simply a matter of getting your case, unscrewing the top, lifting the light up and out of that case, and then if you hold onto the hand grip and press the button, you can then extend the tripod out. Now, you just undo the wire, flip open the levers, lift the tripod up to your preferred height while securing the levers to keep it in that open position. And just like that, you now have your large area light. I've worked with a bunch of different area lights and this Goal Zero Skylight is gonna be the more premium and pricey option, but you definitely see in its build why you might pay more for better features. This sits very sturdily out here. We do have it in its almost max setting, max at least for the middle pole. And while we do have a little bit of sway from those top heavy LED pedals, I'm pretty confident in how well it's holding up. Now, you do have to take this down during rainstorms and thunderstorms, but that's a very easy process. What I care the most about though is the base. We have three telescoping legs. Usually I would prefer just keeping them in the preset default position just 'cause you can get plenty of height without having to extend the legs. But if you want a bit extra, these legs, if you undo the lever, can also extend out, and that's how you get from your 12 feet of height to your 12 1/2 feet. The bottom has these rubber feet, which help give a little bit more grip on the ground, especially if you're in a parking lot or hard terrain, this is gonna be helpful. Now, at the end, you have a hole which you can use with your own stakes, or you can utilize the integrated stake. So if you lift this middle piece up and you pull it out, you can see that it has sharp ends that will fit into the end of that foot. So on soft terrain, you can use this to secure your tripod. I did see to take this down during a thunderstorm, and that's not dissing on the quality of the tripod, but just more of you don't want this acting as a lightning rod extended up into the air. But if it'
