i dont know any that take a 9v, but i use the Axial simple led controller with 4 white lights and 2 red lights. Works great, plugs into the receiver. Then you don't need an extra battery. I also have one of the Vanquish light bars that wires directly to the 3s lipo battery. I have my lights attached to the body, and use a Dean's 4 pin connector to connect my two light systems when I put the body on. The simple axial led system is very cheap. The vanquish LED bar isn't cheap, but has amazing lighting ability.

The brightness of the LED is a combination of how bright the LED is designed to be and the amount of current going through the LED.

Here is link to the LEDs that I used in my Wraith. When put in a circuit with proper voltage and resistance they are bright.

5mm White LED | Through Hole LEDs | Component LEDs | Super Bright LEDs

I have been using the HeyOk lighting brake light controllers.
