I have a lamp bar being made to attach to the ROP, but the storm would not wait. I took an LED lamp made as an aircraft landing light and attached it to the bucket. The PO drilled the lip for a ball to move his boat trailer - bent a little alu and put a tap on my battery +.

The major mistake in my haste was to guess wrong on the length of the cord, it was about a foot short to allow me to get the bucket higher to beam farther forward. I'm converting a coiled, telephone cord, and a quick disconnect clamp, for the next go. I took a little video (20MB/2min).. it wasn't totally dark yet, but gives a pretty good idea.
