I bought a battery powered string of led lights, blue. one of those hardware store by-the-till impulse buys. Its very discrete and looks nice strung on edges of shadyboy awning.

Didn't seem to bother the coyotes or other widllife :)

Shoot, guys.....was just trying to have some ground lighting that's easy to set up, functional, unobtrusive for the most part, no fuel to carry, no hiss like a Coleman lantern, not blinding, windproof, weatherproof, no smell, easy on and off, cheap, etc. . Not intending to "advertise" or attract attention. On the ground, maybe even under the van, not hanging from any awning (don't have anyway).

Besides...it was the girlfriend who really liked it! And we like bats and stars and quiet surroundings in the middle of nowhere, too. Just nice to have some light to not trip over things when shuffling in and out of the van and around it, and give you a place to walk back to after doing your "business" over yonder.

Anyway....try it, you might just like it...we do.
