hi, i am going on my first camping trip and wondered if anyone could recommend a good lantern/torch which will be quite bright in our tent (6 man). I need it fairly bright as i have a 1 and 3 yr old  that are usually up quite late,and will need to see where they are walking. I have just bought one from woolworths (rechargeable wind up one with radio etc) but I am not sure if this is going to be ok. I do not want a gas one  and would prefer a wind up or battery operated one, that is not going to cost the earth to keep replacing the batteries. I do not really want to spend more than £20.00.

Thanks!

Just check out the accessories section of Go Outdoors as they usually have some bright LED ones in there for under twenty quid.

This is small, light, really quite bright and lasts for ages.

There are bigger versions I believe.

Then there's this if you are car camping.

or this!
