    Couldn’t work out to post a link on my phone, so have a screen shot instead :)
    I’ve got a couple of these for reading type lighting. I need to sort out more general light, so I’ll be pinching ideas from here!

    With my fat thumbs I just clicked your clem profile pic by accident. You need to get @Robo to update the picture to reflect the ‘deluxe’ status!!
    Or I can ask @oscar to do it? :)

    connected to two of these fitted as downlighters in the spring void above the bed ...

    Only a few quid on Ebay ,works well ;)

    Dim together and/or push the lamp to switch each light on or off individually for that boo-dwaahh effect - with a low wattage strip light in the main cargo area a good solution to any lighting situation required .

  12. I went for reading lights under the back wardrobe which are flexible stems which allow them to move around and mounted them on the side of the overhead shelf and LED tape down the side, but I prefered to put them in this

    which is nice and neat, and can be nicely covered with opaque plastic to make them look less 'single bulbs' and more of an overall light. went for RGB and not RGBW as the former you can get thiner tap and then use the thiner trunking. Ligts off you can hardly see them as they just blend in so really pleased with this. Also they are on remote colour changing so you can have various effects.

    Thanks for all the suggestions. I've gone for a spot at the back for reading (integrated USB charger):

    And some an adjustable strip lights either side of the van:[​IMG]

    I've ordered pretty much all of the leisure circuit bits now (bar the battery and solar panel!) so should be getting some wiring sorted over the coming weeks.
