Battery, gas, or mains electric?

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

led's powered off a leisure battery will last an eternity before the battery needs a recharge.

On hook up, I use my Outwell Tauri light.
Non-EHU, I use battery powered UFO lights.
Outside the tent for the evenings I have 2 Campingaz lanterns.

The battery powered one we use is the Ring Vega Cybalite (see Amazon) very bright and long lasting. Well reviewed and reasonable in price at £20.
On EHU we use an Outwell Merope electric light with an 8w energy saving bulb.
Really pleased with both.

I already have a 12v leisure battery that I use for work so would prefer led lights that can work from it.
Thanks
