Hello Wouter
I think Lawrence is right.
5 lamps with 12v LED's will each run about .2A and if you have 5 for 8 hours
that should be an 8Ah batteryjust use the same wiring for the bulb but make up
some bulbs with LED's in them instead.
It'll save on the size of battery you need, there are at
You can buy E14-screw 12V bus bulbs (either incandescent or LED) relatively
affordable, and would give you a much better runtime off a pile of 12V SLAs.
Cheers,

Appreciate the input...Didn't consider a few of those things.
So the lamps are actually for sale, thus 230-240V is what I
need...these are my lamps:

I will be attending 2 markets in the end: The Ballater winter
Do the lamps have to run from 240V? Are they just for illumination or
are they the thing to look at and buy?
My experience is narrow boats and you would then use low voltage lamps
running direct off 12V. Plenty of LEDs that will do that now a days.

Hey all,
Next month I hope to attend the first outdoor Christmas fair with
my lamps, with a gazebo stand at Christmas market in Ballater.
Unfortunately the fair does not have the possibility to have fun
electricity to my stand, so I will need to source my own
