The Black Diamond Moji R+ is a compact rechargeable camp lantern that combines white-area lighting with color and ambiance modes. This editorial guide is based on current manufacturer information and practical RV-use considerations; RV Gear Scout did not perform hands-on testing.
Quick verdict
The Moji R+ fits RVers who want one small lantern for a picnic table, tent, or interior backup light and who will recharge it between outings. It is not a searchlight or an emergency power plan. Confirm the current lumen rating, battery specification, included cable, and weather rating because names within the Moji family are similar.
Match light output to the task
Black Diamond lists the current R+ as a compact area lantern with a high white-light output commonly advertised around 200 lumens. High mode is useful for cooking cleanup or gear sorting, while a lower level preserves night vision and battery life. Color modes are recreational; use steady white light when accurate visibility matters.

Charging and runtime planning
Recharge before the trip and learn the indicator behavior. Runtime varies sharply with brightness, color mode, battery age, and temperature, so do not plan from the longest low-mode claim if you intend to use high. Carry a compatible cable and a separate headlamp or flashlight for critical tasks.
Placement and weather
Hang or set the lantern where it cannot fall onto a stove, wet surface, or sleeping area. Do not stare into the LED at close range. Weather resistance does not mean every port can remain open in rain; keep charging-port covers closed and follow Black Diamond’s immersion and temperature guidance for the exact version.
Who should buy it?
It makes sense for campers who value small packed size, rechargeable power, and adjustable mood lighting. Campers who need phone charging, a hand crank, or very long emergency runtime should compare other designs. A shelter such as the CLAM Quick-Set Escape also benefits from diffuse area lighting rather than a harsh flashlight beam.
Bottom line
The Moji R+ is a compact comfort light with useful versatility. Treat the highest-output setting as a short-duration tool, recharge deliberately, keep a backup light, and confirm the exact model’s controls before the first dark campsite setup.
