    How'd you go? the battery was an 18 ah job from Jaycar
    placed in a battery box and packed tight using polystrenLight is an LED spun alloy job
    Puts out plenty of light , I originally took 3 away but ended up using only one.
    The good part was if you wanted yo go down the river and have a fish for a while you could
    as I had mine mounted on 3 mtr pole I made up. Camp lighting was then via an awning light
    using aux 4x4 battery or another light on pole via my camper
    As for the battery packs get one with around 30 ah rating some of the smaller ones are shite.
    I never have flat batteries at camp and camping under a full moon saves even more battery power,
    my lights go through a dimmer as well to further conserve power
