I actually like the idea! I love DIY stuff.

Thanks.

PS.. if anyone wants one, I'll be selling them for $29.95 +tax and shipping / handling. :cool:

...neat idea...the best price I've found on CR123 is Surefire ordered online...about $26 per dozen and the shelf life's probably longer than 5 years...could have one in car, house, and carry for the price of one Surefire...

This would have been even neater if it included an LED emitter as the light source for long life and drop resistance.
