Subdued Lighting

Nomad

I've always found the T@B lights to be too bright - Maybe it's because I do a lot of photo editing and want it subdued - But even when reading a book I tend to like it more subdued.

I was at WallyWorld today and they had end-caps (automotive section) filled with these little battery powered lights - they have high/low, swivel/tilt, auto on/off. They came in a 3-pack for $19 or so. Working really well - have one on the end of each of the side shelves and one under the air conditioner. They attach with either screws or velcro.

Something I use later in the evening or to keep the light level low is an inexpensive, small LED lantern I found in a shop at the farmer's market this past summer.  It has a dimmer switch and really eliminates the bright light effect.  

I also picked up a couple of the small lights they use in the T@G trailers that have a blue light and a white light.  I like the blue light setting for creating a subdued atmosphere.  The white light can be used for reading.

Mike - what lantern is that one (brand) and also does LG sell the blue/white lights? That sounds good too. Thanks. Michele

The light in the wet bath on my T@b is blue/white. 1st click is blue, hold switch or press again for white. The blue does indeed provide for a nice subdued light.

I made shades for my lights, but the Dutchmen lights are different than the LG.

You should be able to purchase lights via the factory.  Call Elsie as she is "everything parts."  

I would also check at Walmart as they were selling the smaller LED lanterns with dimmers on them by Coleman.  My lantern is not a brand name and probably a product of China.  But hey, it works for me!  ;-)

To prevent getting light blinded I have one red led light. Learned that on the boat.
