Yeah I love my LT1 but definitely the LT1S is a form factor that 'plays much better' for camping. LT1 is somewhat 'tippy' for non-perfectly flag things like a tent floor (so much so I made a screw on baseplate for myself).
Hanging a LT1S in the tent is where it's at. The tent we use most often has a light colored fabric. White or a light grey. Either way, the "reflections" create a nice, even light throughout the tent.
Inside of tents I usually ceiling bounce the light. Less stress for the poles, especially during wind. But it can be hung up under a tarp, a tree or standing an a table.

I need to get back into camping so I have an excuse to buy one.

May need to pick one up, didn't realize it worked as a battery bank as well.

During fire ban a nice lantern is fantastic.
