I know you specified no rope lights, but I permanently attached two 18' strings of blue rope lights under each frame rail and added a switched receptacle inside the belly to plug them in and be out of the weather. It provides a soft blue glow on the ground from about the rear tires on forward around the front and back to the tires on the other side. They stay attached to the frame rails, so no stringing lights from awning to whatever and having the mad dash to remove them if a storm comes up. As fre1fred2 stated ... we also use tiki torches for outer lighting. The $4 metal torch stakes found at Wally World or say Menards work well to hold the torch holders anywhere we want except of course concrete pads. I also added a length of color changeable LED's under the awning rail as many have or the newer RV's come with. Dimming the LED's and going with orange color cuts down on bugs greatly.
