Guy lines that have glow in the dark threads woven in to them. This is the closest I have found up to now..
Glow in the dark cleats

I have seen these in several camping shops in the Lake District.

Someone called Rob has already invented the gadget of the century, the Delta peg. It's already saved me a bomb in a new tent .I've had the misfortune to camp in a gale already ,had it not been for these pegs i think i would have lost my tent. Others around me had a torrid time and had to sleep in there cars. Rob for a knighthood (but i cant afford to buy him one just yet).

There seems to bit of confusion with this company, I remember when I went on a camping trip in 1971 meeting an Australian guy who had an inflatable Igloo tent, it looked very similar to the one in the picture which they claimed to have developed in 1981....10 years later...??????

With these already invented glow in the dark Guylines and your Cleats, I doubt you will need lighting in your tent.

Looks a great  tent the Karsten, and comes in all sizes. Very expensive , but you would still be running after it in a gale if you didn't use Delta pegs
