Troy, Bill, Peter,
great suggestions so far....
If you're a little unsure of building from the ground up, how about this
idea for something that could easily do the job.
Maybe a temporary measure to get you up and running:
For the equivalent of about $20 of parts, you could buy a 4 pack
of the cheapest solar garden lights in a pack of 4....put them all
in the garden during the day and use one in your light box at night
I cannibalised the bits from a whole set of these.
They have all the parts you need:
2 x (sometimes just 1) rechargeable NiCad
1 x ultra high brightness LED (put some red cellophane over it)
1 x switch to turn it off
1 x solar cell to recharge it for free during the day
