Thought I’d give a quick report on how this worked during our three weeks travelling. General feedback is that it was incredibly useful and we had quite a few nice comments and people asking where I got it from. The light was really bright - to the point that most of the time I unplugged one side and only use half of it unless we really needed lots of light. On a few campsites that had no ambient lighting it made the van stand out from a distance. It does attract bugs and I’ve seen a post elsewhere saying that a yellower light would attract fewer bugs so that might be worth thinking about in the future. However because the light points sideways then all the bugs stayed over on that side - so sitting on the ‘unlit’ side meant no bugs but still plenty of light to read by etc.
On one site we arrived quite late and pitched up next to an Italian couple in a T2 who were playing cards on a Camping table using a little lamp. When I plugged in the rafter I heard an exclamation behind me and turned around to apologise for it being too bright and to offer to unplug it - only to see the chap heading towards me! I started to apologise but he quickly shook my hand and thanked me, saying that it had been impossible playing cards in such dim light
