Default custom battery pack

does any one know how to make a custom battery pack for running light? if i can't build one, my second thought was to buy a cheap remote controled car and steal its battery pack.

yes it has been done. I saw the thread about it on here not long ago, but I aint got time to find it right now I am to tired and trying to run a bussiness online alone and look at this stuff to aint easy. try doing a search. type 1/18 lights or something of that form and look at all the things members from this site have done.

For my LED lights I put resistors in line with the LEDs and used a 9 volt battery that I velcroed in. I will get ome pics if you want. Jim

I will snap some pics tomorrow. Check ebay for the red and the clear LEDs. A guy I know got some from China for about 10 bucks. I think there was like 50 of them. Jim
