One of the coolest features of the Siege lantern is that you can hang it either upright or inverted with the integrated D-rings on the top and bottom of the lantern.  You can remove the housing around the LED if you want a less diffused beam.  The on/off button also acts as battery status indicator, changing from green, to yellow, to red, to flashing red as the batteries get weaker.
