Abstract An auxiliary lighting system for a detachable vehicle trailer comprising: " at least one light; " at least one environmental sensor; " a power source such as a removable battery; " a control system; and " an activation switch. On decoupling of the trailer from a truck an activation switch is set to detached which changes the auxiliary lighting system to draw power from the removable battery rather than the power supply of the truck. The environmental sensors sense ambient light and provide light measurements back to the control system which compares these measurements against a threshold value. If the light measurements are less than a threshold value the control system operates to allow the lights to draw power from the removable battery.
