Duff title and a long shot I know, but does anyone on here sell them?
We have a very dark hall with no elec sockets in it and I wanted to put a table lamp on the hall table to try and brighten things up a little.
Don't really want the faff of having sockets put it (they would have to channel out all the way down the hall and we would probably have to have the whole hall replastered and funnily enough P has said NO).
Does such a thing exist?
Thanks

I've seen the blocks that change colour (can't remember the name) that are battery and not plug in. They were in Debenhams and I think Ikea did some too. They aren't very bright though as we bought my SIL a single colour one last Christmas but it worked well as a feature light in the lounge IYKWIM.

I have seen something advertised, might be a JML product, it's a bulb on a base with a pull string and you put batteries in it and it sticks to the wall. Will try and find a link.

The company that do the Candeloos (Vessel - www.vessel.com) also do grown-up versions. They recharge on a base station so no replacement batteries to buy.
Hope that helps some.
