We go electric camping a lot and I was looking for a practical light to use in the tent. This light is brilliant. It has a super long lead so you can trail it around the tent. You have the option of either a hook or tent pole grips to fix the light to the roof of your tent. The only advice I would give is change the light bulb because the one provided with it is a bit dim. We changed it for a short, round curly styled energy saving lightbulb equivalent to 60W and it lights up the whole tent (we have a large tent!!). We bought two lights thinking we would need them, but by chaging the bulb you only need one of these to do the job. We gave the other one to my sister in law who is also really impressed with it. Make sure you get an energy saving lightbulb for two reasons: 1) it won't get too hot and melt throught he tent lining 2) The lecky won't short out if you boil the kettle because it uses low energy.
This light is also brilliant if you hook it up outside the tent at night for evening BBQ's (but not in the rain obviously!). Highly recommended.
