UCO StakeLight Illuminated Tent Stakes 4-Pack

The UCO StakeLight 4-Pack includes four illuminated tent stakes built from 6000 series aluminum with an IPX6-rated, water-resistant TPE LED housing. Each stake marks your tent's location in the dark, guides you back from a late-night trip into the woods, and creates a visible perimeter of light around your campsite.

Find Your Way Back in the Dark

Losing your tent in a crowded campground or on a dark trail is a real frustration. Each StakeLight runs in area mode at 17 lumens for up to 10 hours, casting enough light to spot your shelter from a distance without blinding anyone nearby. That runtime covers a full night of camping on a single set of batteries, so you're not scrambling for replacements mid-trip.

Strobe Mode for Maximum Visibility

When you need your tent to stand out in fog, rain, or a busy festival-style campground, switching to strobe mode extends battery life to up to 24 hours of flashing light. The strobe is also useful as a low-key safety marker when camping near a trail or road where other people or vehicles might pass through your site.

Built to Handle the Conditions

The stake body is 6000 series aluminum, a grade commonly used in outdoor hardware for its balance of strength and corrosion resistance. The LED sits inside a TPE housing rated IPX6, meaning it can take direct water spray from any direction without failing. The on/off switch is integrated into the lens itself and glows in the dark, so you can find the control without hunting for it. The LED module detaches from the stake and can be used on its own as a small standalone light.

Specifications

Who This Is For and Isn't

The UCO StakeLight 4-Pack suits car campers, festival-goers, and overlanders who set up and break down camp in low-light conditions and want a simple, low-profile way to mark their tent's location through the night. The four-stake count covers the corners of a standard tent footprint.

These stakes are not rated for hard, rocky ground where a standard aluminum stake would bend or fail to penetrate. They function as tent stakes in typical soil conditions, not as heavy-duty anchors for high-wind or technical mountaineering setups. The LED housing is water-resistant to IPX6, not waterproof to IPX7 or IPX8, so submersion is not covered.

Common Questions

Can the LED be used without the stake?

Yes. The LED module on each UCO StakeLight is designed to be removed from the aluminum stake body and used independently as a small standalone light, useful for reading inside a tent or marking gear without driving a stake into the ground.

How do I switch between area mode and strobe mode?

The on/off switch is built into the lens of each UCO StakeLight and glows in the dark for easy location at night. Cycle through modes using that integrated switch. The exact switching sequence beyond the two stated modes is not detailed in available product data; confirm with UCO documentation before your trip.

Are the UCO StakeLights waterproof enough for rain?

The LED housing on each UCO StakeLight carries an IPX6 water-resistance rating, which means it is tested to withstand powerful water jets from any direction. That covers rain and splashing. IPX6 does not cover submersion, so the lights should not be left in standing water or flooded ground.

Is there a California Proposition 65 warning for this product?

Yes. The UCO StakeLight 4-Pack may expose you to chemicals including BPA, which is known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm. For more information, visit www.P65Warnings.ca.gov.
