Hi there,
Long time lurker, first time poster here :)

A while ago at a show (can't remember which) I saw some lovely lights that have little clippy bits to grasp the interior of your tent. I think they ran off of a wee pack that had some batteries in. The entire loom had 5 or 6 of these clip lights on, and for the life of me I can't find any info on them now or remember who sold them.

Does anyone know of these things? Did I imagine it? :( Would be ideal for me Mrs. and Mutt so we can read without loads of light from the striplights etc. (just me and the missus read - Mutt can't read yet though he likes the taste of books)

tia,
Andy.

Hi Andy; you can't lurk forever! Alas never seen what you're looking for but someone will be along soon who will know. Strange - our dog can't read either.

Hi and Welcome

I bought a set of lights from Blacks, Little LED lights with velcro backing and a battery pack. I think they come as a set of 3 or 5

They are not on their web site at the moment but may have some instore if you have one local

If Black's have any of their own range of tents in stock, they come with a set of these lights and also sell them separately. They are not much use for reading or cooking but we put them in our sleeping pods and they are more than bright enough and last for days and days in a single set of batteries.
