I got a 12VDC flourescent lantern somewhere. I also have a 12 V little
car fan and a deep-cycle 12 V battery kept on a charger. I use these when
the power goes out. Doesn't happen that often but it is very handy when
it does. Light is bright enough to read by.

I have a collection of antique oil lamps. All I need to do is kill a
baby seal and process the fat.
