I found and use a couple battery-powered, three LED, 4 head "track" llights from Ace hardware.. On sale at $12.89 last year. They take two sets of three AAA batts; but willwork with one set. Sticky back velcro or screw/ button on. Nifty remote,too! :D
I'll eventually rig a 5 v power supply and hook them to the house side12v.
Mounted over the settees, they provide nearly enough light to read without squintind too badly ;) Actually, very pretty , somewhat subdued, directional "mood" lighting. A bit to blue for my tastes; but as an "entry" lamp..sweet.. Come thu the cockpit to the companionway and mash the button before heading below..
Light!
