Lighting Types

• Mirrors and other reflective objects work well during the day and can help at night and during whiteouts if coupled with some form of light.
• The simplest light you can use is a few of blinking bicycle safety lights; you should set them so they can be seen from any direction.
• Chemical light sticks can help, but they will fade out too soon and would have to be replaced daily.
• Use battery powered lamps such as the large round “tap” lamps that you push to turn on or off.
• Use larger flood lights connected to a power source with enough power to last the night.
• Use solar LED lanterns.
• Use EL wire (electroluminescent wire) to light up the perimeter of your installation.
• Blinking lights get attention faster than lights that are always on and blinking lights use less power.

This is a handheld solar LED lantern, costs around $35, it has 6 high bright LED lights with more than 10,000 hours of life. It can be charged both by solar and crank, solar taking up to six                  hours of daylight. This could work well with what i want to achieve.
