I hate LED arrays or lanterns that put light out in every direction - they just end up blinding you.

This is what I built for my camping. It has 3 adjustable 60 degree wide heads that I can point where I need and MORE importantly light from up high.



and




and in action quite a few years ago.



I've since upgraded the old Luxeons to the latest Cree and the light output has been tripled. It also now runs from a long lead from an aux 12V outlet in the back of the cruiser. It also has one of my dimming drivers, so I can set the LEDs to the dim setting as a general nighttime area light that draws less than 100mA.

Good luck find something like it

cheers,
george.
