Will and Mark,

I got a little LED light called a PAL survival light from an outfit called
Deep Creek Design. It is a single, or maybe it's 3, can't remember,
blue/white led(s) that runs off a 9 volt battery. Fits in the palm of your
hand. Has 4 brightness settings, dim, which is on all the time, so it's easy
to find, medium, bright, and a strobe setting. Once you put the battery in,
this light is always on in the low setting. Bought this light about 2 years
ago, right before our first trip to Ky Lake and it's been on ever since, on
the original battery. Pretty amazing. Cost about 25 bucks and isn't real
bright but enough to see what your doing if you don't need too much detail.
I keep it hanging by it's lanyard on my leatherman pouch so it's always
handy.

Rik
