    Invent a technical reason as to why it's not possible. Too much battery drain, wrong voltage, wrong type of lights, no suitable fixing, damage to the van, no spare socket.....  Just get your imagination working. It'll be fine.

    Tell her that the pink lights ruin your street cred and that you are getting laughed at in the washing up area .................. and that it is not just because of the yellow marigolds!

    Pink Solar lights! Cool wink would be talking  point on site and not hard to find after a few jars.

    Tinny 'solar lights' even I know they don't  drain the battery or need a spare socket laughing

    I have a Solar lighthouse that travels with us, the light revolves once it is dark, looks great and it's fun.

    Obviously fit them but warn SWMBO that they may have an adverse affect on the TV and maybe even battery drain.  Then when she is out remove the TV aerial and unplug the battery charger & solar if fitted so the TV picture is rubbish and will get worse as the battery drains.

    When she complains say (in a barely audible voice) I told you so then come up with some great idea on how to fix it.  Fiddle about for 30 minutes or so, remove said lights, fix TV and attach battery charger and solar and hey presto you saved the daywink

    When the lights are on at night and the fifteenth bloke has knocked on the door and asked "How much?" she may realise that it wasn't such a good idea after all.

    Or leave her at home.

    Tell her that if she insists on those pink girly lights, you'll embarrass her by wearing a pink Tutu ballet dress when on the campsite.  smile

     P.S  Post a picture on the forum if you do  wink
