Use

Like an oil lantern, a steel lantern can be placed on any back wall, side or top of a solid block, and even on leaves or tree trunks. Unlike oil lanterns, they are waterproof, and won't be dislodged by water, whether flowing or stationary.

The light given off is whiter and travels farther in comparison to an oil lantern, traveling approximately 24 blocks from the source.

If dropped on the ground it will produce a faint light source.
