looking for battery overhead indoor light

Try RV lights. 12VDC system.

Harbor Freight (among others) have those little battery powered lights that are designed like a light switch that are surprisingly bright. I really have no idea how long the batteries last but you could try the rechargeable batteries in them to save some long term money. I have a few someone gave me for power outages. Haven't had to change the batteries yet.
I think so. Most RVs have a 100Ah battery that supplies 12VDC to the circuits.
Maybe someone on the board owns a camper? I don't because I don't like dragging that kind of weight behind my vehicle unless I have too. I'll find a nice hotel or cabin, with a kitchenette if possible, if I want to go somewhere for a few nights.
I've been buying cheap solar panels, and just bought a small 400 watt wind turbine generator, to charge the 60 Ah of batteries I have. Going to see if I can cut my heating bill this year in the house. That and if I loose power it'll hopefully keep my pipes from freezing.
Was going to expand it if it works to run some lights in the rooms downstairs so there's at least a night light since they don't have windows.
That way that part of my system is off the grid if I loose power. I have a fire place, candles, and oil lamps, too.

Where did you lose it?
I found this one in a pile of trash on a construction site north of Sacramento, a month or two ago. Could this be the one for which you are looking?

They're probably in the range of 50 to 80 lumens.

I found plenty of lights that were not motion detected on Amazon when I used the Google search I mentioned above.
