I climbed up into the attic today and brought down the
orange -fanny- waist pack. I'd have preferred a small
backpack -- particularly when it turned out that the waist
pack has a hook instead of a buckle and has to be kept under
tension to stay fastened, so I can't wear it as a snap sack
as I'd intended.
But the suitcases are well away from the only light up
there, and the flashlight I brought along turned out to be
feeble, so I couldn't see how large the summit pack and the
tactical pack are.
Related advice: I've fallen in love with head lamps, the LED things that strap to one's forehead. Harbor Freight used to cheaply sell, or even give away, one that I have several copies of. It would be perfect for the task you describe above. I no longer see that exact model on their website, but they have others, including ones selling for less than 3 bucks.
One friend of mine regularly invites me to do night rides on a particular bike trail. I find the head lamp very handy for taking bikes off his car's rack, then later putting them back on.
P.S. I keep meaning to run lights to the attic of the garage, but the job never seems to rise to the top of the list.
