For on EHU we use 3 BulkHead Lanterns, 70watt Halogen (100watt/1200 lumen)in the main living area of the Tent, for out side under the Sun-Canopy a BulkHead Lantern 105watt Halogen (150watt 1800 lumen) both units have inline rotary dimmers fitted.
Kitchen Tent uses a BulkHead Lantern 53watt (75watt 800 lumen)
For back up or when no mains electric is available we have two of the Outwell 400 XL battery Lanterns which take 6 rechargeable "D" Cells each, although probably the brightest LED lantern around they only give out 30watt of light each in old money, or about half as bright as a single mantle gas lantern.
We no longer use fluorescent lighting, as the Glow seem to attract every flying insect imaginable, along with the Glow being stark and cold.
We also no longer take the Paraffin Pressure Lantern or CampinGaz Lantern, no need in this modern age although the brightness from such portable ancient Lanterns, is far brighter than any modern day LED Lantern can offer, not to mention the lovely Glow from both, but especially the Paraffin Lantern which is so warm and special and a reminder of the old times.
