How do people best light the problems when partaking in a spot of apres sunset bouldering?

Head torches and gas lantern worked a treat last night at burbage, had an awesome session! My mate swears by one of those hundred billion candle power lanterns (but i dont own one!)

We've used one for a few night time sessions, combined with decent headtorches you can have a pretty good time.
In reply to robw007: As above gas lantern but with a piece of card covered in tin foil (or a more expensive method, if you prefer) placed behind it to direct more of the light towards your chosen problem.
Also use head torches although usually dangling off adjacent problems to light crux holds.
