LED light inside

This view shows the 1/4" nut held in place by silicone and the wires routed around the sides. A thin nut was used. Near the nut you can see the red wire appears to turn to a black wire. I ran out of red so used black to jump across.

The positive leads are on the top, the negative leads are on the bottom. I first soldered the two LED pairs together with their own leads, cut off the excess then used the battery box wires to tie them all together. Be carefull when removing the extra spring in the battery compartment where the LED's are. My flew away and I was lucky to find it.

Using a nut instead of a bolt allows me to remove the bolt for a clean appearance when used as a flashlight. A threaded rod could be used also.
