Can't remember the make though! Perfect for our artificial arches though.But might be worth a trawl in some of the Christmas stock sales, or, there is, a think a online Christmas shop which might have them.The ones we use have to be switched on and off manually. If access is an issue, you might want to consider remote controlled ones!HeatherThe SHCG list is provided for members of Social History Curators Group to discuss subjects relevant to social history in museums.

Ideally they would be mains connected but we may also need one running off batteries because of access issues.
Any recommendations welcome!
