Battery powered lights

All depends on how frequently you venture into your attic, battery powered lamps will only give you a fraction of the light you would get from a mains LED strip light fitting for instance. Its a fairly easy job to install a mains fitting and switch, presuming your lighting circuit is accessible. If you are not confidant doing it your self, it should be an hours work for an electrician (if you can get one for to come out for such a small job that is).

I'm eventually going to convert the loft, so I'm happy with some temporary lights for the moment.

Not sure if these will do, but they're remarkably bright. So bright, in fact, that for a specific purpose I've modified two of ours so only four of the LEDs are lit.
