What kind of lighting are you guys using to light your tent areas at contest? Was thinking some LED rope lights zip tied around the tent would work, but wondering if you guys had better ideas.

They aren't as bright as you would think. I would just get a powerful battery powered lantern to hang from your tent plus the rope lights.
We string up something similar to these: https://www.homedepot.com/p/Bergen-...ry-Light-Stringer-Yellow-GL50142MPC/304710231
I can't find the exact one we have right now, but they provide plenty of light when turned on.

We use about 4-6 of these clamped on the tent frame. Using LED lights with plastic bulbs is best.

I use 2 strings of these. Plenty of light. Once bulbs start burning out, I will replace them with LEDs. Got em on sale for 19.99

Thanks. I'll look into a few of those options.

I use the same as Pig Farmer. 2 strings provide quite a bit of light, but I also wish I would've just gotten the led ones from the start mainly bc I've broken a few bulbs.

im all in on the led rope lights......they are plenty bright enough to work under and not so bright that you feel like you are in a doctors office. they are perfect for us. we actually dig the vibe and mood they create at camp.
only negative for me is that it does take a few minutes to string them up and take them down. but it';s not enough of an issue to cause me to want to change.

We used to use these before we got our trailer. Used them for a couple years and they worked great

We use the LED rope lights for ambient lighting and add several LED spot lights for working areas. The LED Spotlights are rechargable.
