Just want to share a cheap idea to put the smallest version of a photon in you smallest kit.
First you go to your local electronics supplier and purchase yourself an ULTRA BRITE L.E.D (light emitting diode)and a flat shaped 3 volt battery, sorta like a hearing aid battery. The total cost of these items is about $6 Australian. Next you go to the Hardware store and get a bit of clear plastic tubing to just squeeze the battery into and about the same length. Stick the LED onto the battery and squeeze. The light will work, if it doesn't then just reverse the battery. When storing, leave one leg of the LED out of the tubing.
