Paul,

NTE has come out with some not so expensive white LEDs, $1.80 each. I made a
LED flash light by putting three of them, each with a 120 resister in series
on the end of some soft copper wire. I used a Radio Shack 4 C cell pack for
a stable base and bend the wire to put the light where I need it. It worked
great inspecting the inside of a gas tank last week. An image of it is at
http://home.earthlink.net/~edstoller/id5.html   and NTE can be found at
http://home.earthlink.net/~edstoller/id5.html  .

OT OT my sisters are into miniatures so I got them some of the white 3MM
ones.
