I was at the Expo in Flagstaff and saw these awesome LED camp lights on a stand. Can't remember the name of them. Need some help. Thanks

I was not at Expo, so I don't know what they were, but I recently found, on this forum, an LED camp light made by Wagan Tech: http://wagan.com/wagan-tech/lighting-needs.html

Not quite as big, but the right idea.

My dad is up there right now, watching my nieces' kids while she's doing a week long guide trip (she's a guide) and the pictures at 11 at night look like late afternoon. Lol
That would be tough for me.
I live out of my Jeep and what works best for my situation/setup is:
For interior lighting I use 2 rechargeable, magnetic stick on, LED strip lights - http://amzn.to/2sDPyE2 which provides me more than enough light.
For exterior lighting I use 2 solar powered outdoor lights w/sensor detector http://amzn.to/2t8ajJe that I have attached to my rear tire carrier. These provide me more than enough light as you can see !

i just bought a pair of cheep wallyworkd driving lamps and carry a motorcycle battery and strap them to the crossbars on my tent awning. put out planty and usually will last all weekend without a charge. sorry no pictures. its torn apart right now to figure out a cleaner wiring setup for storage and hanging. only ran bare wires the first season of use to figure out if it worked.
my second option if i know i will be with no power and jsut for mood lighting. is to grab a couple of sets of the solar rope lights when harbor fright puts them on sale. about 20 bucks. keep the panels where the sun can hit them all day. ans run them around the canopy edges or around the inside of the tent when you set up with the panels outside. when it gets darl they turn on. easy peasy. hope this helps someone.

I understand pricey only too well, but this gear is way too pricey. I'm not a cheap person by any stretch, but come on.

seems like a nice option...they look lightweight so putting them on awnings should be simple and also compact while recharging.
