Hi Suebea,

We've bought the rechargeable lantern from halfords which is really bright. I think we paid £25 for it, and we use it for playing board games/cards/reading and it's great. Plus it's got a remote control and you can hang it up in the tent (you get a hook with it)....but watch yer 'ead as I found out on several occasions!

Also, the nightsearcher lantern seems to be a popular choice on here. I think there's been a thread recently about it.

You can buy the nightsearcher via UKCS with a discount, I have one and it sounds like what you need!

We Can recomend this one by ROYAL.     2 x 7W tubes, switched either 1 on or 2 on and LED night light for the Kids! 4Ah lead/acid battery, mains and car chargers. We were VERY impressed by the quality of construction compared with some we have seen. Cost about £24-£25.

Happy Camping Frank & Kathy

I can reccomend the green one sold on UKCS.  Really bright for reading/playing.
