Why do I get the feeling i`m going to be the Guinea pig here? :-)

Because you're the one who has difficulty getting about your garden
to check things without a flood of light. I'd use a lantern.

Good for you. I have torches to use, but a torch is not as convenient
as a floodlight for many jobs is it?

The lantern seems quite adequate. Good light. Stands up on its own.
Useful in the loft or under the floor when working on electrics.
I wouldn't cut the hedges or chainsaw things under that light but those
kind of jobs are best done in good daylight.

And for wandering round, moving stuff, tidying up etc? Yes a lantern can be
good for some jobs, but it`s hardly the perfect solution to every possible
lighting requirement is it? :-)
