Arena lighting

[Maz55]

Hi there, I'm looking for some low cost options for lighting a manege. Needs to be solar or battery powered. Must be easily removable as no pp and ideally not involve any poles! Any ideas please? I'm only doing flatwork so just need sufficient light to see where i'm going! Someone suggested that you can get a clip on light but i've no idea where i'd get that from. thanks

Can you park down where you ride and leave your car lights on?
I’ve done that before but don’t want to run the battery down ?

work lights on tripods - maybe try screwfix or wickes places like that

Aren’t they too low down though, wouldn’t the light always be directly in your eyevoew?

I have seen solar lights that fix to the top of the fence, I have no idea where you get them though or how good they are.

Last year we bought some cheap rechargeable lights from Amazon - if you Google 'Rechargeable Work Light COB 20W' you should find them. Then attached them to top of tall electric fence posts and then, when we needed them, slotted the electric fence posts into sections of hose pipe tied into the corners of the arena fence. Four of these lights lit a 20 x 40 arena well enough to do flatwork. They probably needed recharging after about five or so sessions. They are better mounted on the poles though.

it was a means to an end before I moved to somewhere with a floodlit arena. Others have come up with far better ideas!

We have an older version of these, on poles we can raise when we use them. It’s a 20x40 arena, and we have 1 at each short end, and 2 on each long side,:

you would want the 450watt ones.
