First question...
I'm looking for a simple push button LED light like this Baja Designs dome light. This is exactly what I've been looking for, really small package with a push button on/off with a ton of light output...but the price is ridiculous. LED Dome Lights | LED Lighting | Baja Designs
I know Home Despot sells those three pack of round LED bulbs but they are too big and fail after awhile. Anyone know of a cheaper LED light? Haven't seen anything I like yet.
Those are real similar to what I have setup in and under my RTT. They are great for having enough light to see but not so much as to wash out the stars. I did a bunch of google-fu and the best answer I could come up with is orange light does not attract bugs like the brighter lights.
I always sleep with my feet toward the door in case of an emergency peeIf your tent has two doors but only one ladder - be sure to mark the side that has the ladder before you go to sleep drunk. Seen one guy almost kill himself by trying to crawl out of the wrong side before.
I usually soak my RTT in waterproofing before using it. Thanks to @SecretSquirrel for reminding me before going to Colorado. It saved us a lot of headache.Whatever you're sleeping in....... I put this stuff on all my tents/gear/hammocks/shoes. Just using it on your shoes decreases chances of a tick imbedding by over 50%. Never had any issues with discoloring or staining. When other people find 4 ticks on them and we are walking the same trail - I smirk when I find zero.
