When we were at the C&CC NFOL this year wew were sheltering in the CMS Mobile trade stand during a thunder storm. In the marquee they had a couple of led strip lamps on demo. EWe bought one of these because we were impressed by it in daylight. They use 11 watts of energy and give a light output of 75 watts. Each contains 150 leds. We gave it a try at night and we were very happy. In fact so happy that we bought an add on tube. These are great for reading in the tent.

The starter pack contents are:

LED light complete with 5 metre cable;

1 * 12 volt socket to crocodile clips;

1 * 230 volt adaptor;

1 * 12 volt cigarette socket plug lead; and

2* plastic holders.

So the lamp can be used with/without EHU.

We bought ours on a show offer but they are not included on the CMS Mobile website. The following does link to a seler of these: http://www.leisurepower.co.uk/acatalog/le810.html

The add on is at:

Use a flourescent strip light with crocodile clips which clips onto a small sealed battery (type you see in Maplins).  Charged up battery before went and light lasted for all the 5 nights we were there without needing charging again.  Tried various light solutions in past but this is by far the best and is brighter then many EHU set ups we see on sites.

intersted in the striplight set up....

so a bit of advice needed...

What size battery and what kind of strip light set up.

Is it easy to assemble or can you buy a complete kit(including battery)?

Just to let you know i am not technically minded so i need as much help as possible!!!!
