We have some LED lanterns but they give quite a cold light, I wanted something for the evening which has a nice warm light - any suggestions? I've seen a couple of lightbulb style ones in Decathlon but they are pricey and don't seem bright enough.

Outwell Castor at Go Outdoors

£14.99 is a great price too.

My advice is worth no more than the price paid for it

If you are able it is so much easier to make your own. For the new TT I have made all the lights and according to BH looks great and there were several people with light envy!
All you need is some cable, light fitting, plug, 3amp fuse, switch (optional) and then you can buy the collapsible paper shades that warm up the colour (we use the 4w LED warm bulbs). You can also make the cable as long as you need so no extension leads required.
Shout if you want more info.

The Outwell is nice but I should have mentioned we don't have EHU so just need something battery operated.
