Pictured below is one of those lights you can plug into the cigarette lighter slot in your car to recharge it. This is the original version of the DashLite. A little red LED lights up while it's charging. The battery holds a charge for weeks, but I usually just leave one plugged in. With it's 12 v DC in power requirement could be a good little project platform for an LED mod?
The voltage output of the charged unit measures 2.8 V on my voltmeter. It comes with a small incandescent bulb with a 2.2 V rating drawing 0.25 A. The hole in the reflector for the head of the buld to fit thru is 6.9mm. next to the hole is a flange that opens t the width of the hole (10.9 mm id).
What could one put in this to make an LED light?
