Default 12v lighting for outbuilding

Nigel M wrote:

I want to set up a 12v lighting system in a outbuilding, possibly with a
12v battery to be topped up by a solar cell. The system will need to
provide light for a 4m x 4m room, for an hour or so a day.

Anybody got any suggestions?


What level of light is required? Just enough to read by? Enough to do
detailed work? This can make a huge difference.

An 8W 12V fluorescent tube will provide enough light to see, but nowhere
near enough for say a workshop.
