Light Setup/No electrical outlet

Where my double tubs are going to be fruiting there are no electrical outlets. What are some economic ways to light the room anyways? IS the only way buying a big ass battery and changing it a whole lot?

extention cord. they are rather cheap. or even a string of xmas light but that is a big arrow to your grow. you can get white power chords that are discrete. if this is a no go then a battery and an LED set up. those things use practically no energy!
edit: oh oh what about getting some of those lawn lights that are solor powered. they go on sale every so often and arn't very expensive. i have a bunch in my yard. anyhoo just rotate them. let them change then put one over the tubs then keep rotating. if you plan it out you might be able to just power then off of daylight. if you are electrically inclined maybe you could seperate the solor power part from the light and stick a long cord inbetween but then you havea chord showerin and you might aswell just get a 2 dollar extention chord.
