KMart Toowong had a few but not any longer. They will make ideal "doggie treats" for the engineers at work
Excellent catch, PeterM!

So i picked up one of these from ebay a while ago. Ive only had time to pull it apart today and it wasnt too difficult.
I swapped in two 5mm Red LEDs (500mcd) with a 100ohm resistor. The board is in a parallel setup.
I'm gonna be using it to light up my eyepiece case as i've got a USB powerbank in there.
