Thumbs up power vision caps (LED hats)

Note sure if this has been posted before?
Just bought a baseball cap at bunnings which has LEDs neatly
built in under the brim and an on/off button inside the brim fabric.

Useful when you need both hands in the dark and a bit more fancy than a clip on unit.

I grabbed one of these at bunnings and replaced them with red LEDs. Very handy.

For those wanting one of these hats with red LEDs I have a suggestion.. If you go on the Bay and search for lighted pilot hat you will find the sames ones but with red and white options. These hats are fantastic and I use one for my astronomy and the other in my aircraft... Bright little LEDs in these hats

I got one hit on the bay with only red LEDs.

"Panther Vision PowerCap Pilot Series 2-LED Sage Flashlight Hat".

About $US19 + $US9 P/H. P/H for 10 was $US28 if there was any bulk interest.

Not certain I'd wear a brimmed cap at the scope. Seems like the brim would hit something too often...

This is what I use... http://data.energizer.com/PDFs/tufhd31ph.pdf

Bunnings had them on sale last year for A$50...
