got some from radio shack, but they weren't very bright. I am thinking about getting a "head" light. The kind that straps to your head for hands free use and using those lights, they seem to be pretty bright for the most part.  |

Cannibalize a battery powered stick-up LED closet lamp or flashlight from the dollar store. They are also a great source of reflectors! Way cheaper than Radioshack or electronics stores. Narly1 |

another vote here for bills custom rc lighting. His stuff is TOP notch. I have a set of the 6 leds for my truck and now a set of the proline light pods with 5mm leds in them  These things are wicked. They came take some serious abuse also. |
