Hey, people.
I'm a flashlight no0B, but not a forum/newsgroup no0B, so I did quite a bit of searching before wasting your time and posting.
I'm trying to make a headlight for my greyhound. He's a pretty special old feller, who probably could use some additional light during nighttime activities this summer. I had a Nite Ize Spotlit on him for a few years but got tired of replacing the short-lasting, expensive and hard-to-find CR 2016 batteries. I have this week off and would like to manufacture something for him that runs off of two AAA alkalines. I want to fit the unit with a hanging reflector that will broadcast light in front of his face, maybe at a downward angle of 30 degrees.
I envision putting the AAA batteries on his collar with a switch. Here's a pic of the envisioned flashlight.
Where would I buy parts for something like this? Should I instead modify a headlight?
