Last updated 05-26-20
The Ozark Trail Lantern is part of a six-piece package that also includes two LED flashlights, two LED penlights, and an LED headlamp.
For this review, I'll only be focusing on the flashlight.
This flashlight uses six 5mm phosphor white LEDs to produce a remarkably potent medium spot with soft corona.
It gets its power from three AAA cells, which are included in the package.
Advertised runtime is 3 hours.
* This comes as a six-piece set, including this lantern, two flashlights, two pen lights, a head lamp, and 17 AAA cells all for $9.82.
SIZE
To use the flashlight, feed it first (see directly below) and THEN you'll be ready to go camping or brighten up that room after a power failure.
To turn the flashlight on, press & release black button on the tailcap.
To turn the flashlight off, just do the same thing.
To change the AAA cells in this flashlight, unscrew and remove the tailcap, huck it at that pesky grizzly bear that's been going through the garbage at your camp so that the bear thinks that it's a yummy piece of refuse, tries to eat it, finds it distasteful so that it spits the disc out, and then squats over it and pisses on it...O WAIT!!! YOU'LL NEED THAT!!! So just set it aside instead. 
Tip the battery carriage out of the barrel, remove the "dead-as-a-doorknob" AAA cells from it and dispose of them into the dustbin (garbage can) or drop them into the battery recycling box if your community has a battery reclamation program in place.
Install three new AAA cells into the carriage, orienting them so that their flat-ends (-) negatives face the springs for them in each compartment.
Slide the carriage back into the flashlight, orienting it so the arrow embossed onto it points toward the LEDs.
Finally, screw that tailcap back on.
Aren't you glad that you didn't chuck it at that hungry grizzly bear that really needed to go poddy now?
Current usage measures 380mA on my DMM's 10A scale.
This flashlight has a somewhat "cheap" or "chintzy" feel to it, but since I have two of them, "The Smack Test" will proceed unabated.
I bashed it against a brick wall ten times (five against the side of the bezel, and five against the side of the tailcap) and was able to expose the bare Metalmarineangemon - er - the bare Metaltrailmon - um that's not it either...the bare Metalsusanoomon...er...uh...wait a sec here...THE BARE METAL (guess I've been watching too much Digimon again! - now I'm just making {vulgar term for feces} up!!!) on the side of the bezel and tailcap where it was struck.
No electrical or optical malfunctions wer detected.
The purpose of The Smack Test isn't to see how badly damaged the external parts of the flashlight would become; it gauges how well (or how poorly) the LED and driver circuit handles the instantaneous G-forces encountered during this test. The Ozark Trail 6xLED Flashlight passed the test.
It did however, flunk The Toliet Test.
Here's proof that I really performed, "The Toliet Test" on this flashlight.
And this is the evidence that this flashlight failed the test. In this photograph, the flashlight is actually turned off.
But after sitting for ~10 minutes at an ambient temperature of 88.4°F (31.3°C), the LEDs were fully off and actuating the flashlight's switch several times in rapid succession showed that normal operation has been restored.

Measures 244,000mcd on an Amprobe LM631A light meter.
Output is stated as being 30 lumens; however you need a rather expen$ive instrument called an integrating sphere to measure light in lumens, and I do not own or have access to one of these critters.

Spectrographic analysis of the white LEDs in this flashlight.
Spectrographic analysis of the white LED in this flashlight; spectrometer's response narrowed to a band between 440nm and 460nm to pinpoint native emission peak wavelength, which is 447.650nm.

A beam cross-sectional analysis would normally appear here, but the ProMetric System
that I use for that test was destroyed by lightning in mid-July 2013. 
TEST NOTES:
Test unit (the entire kit actually) was purchased from the proprietor of the Happy Market located at the intersection of N. Maple Ave. and W. Shields Ave. in Fresno CA. USA on 04-29-20.
He offered to sell it to me; of course since I've been running this website for over 20 years, I took the bate.
