With a 3 year warranty that backpacking tent is tempting. I read somewhere else that they were on last year as well. Has anyone tried one?

they are ok for a 8 foot square room and as far as i recall run on 3 AAA batteries.
Ooh ta, HRO, it's way past time I replaced the freeplay 'golfball' lights! (Anyone remember them?)

Couple of things here look worth it. Can't really beat the prices when picking up a few spares.
