yeah its the wrong frigging forum, I'll delete it later but at least I know where I posted it.

In parts catalogs and shit, what is the little power light called, like one of them thats on the Seventh Circle chassis, or on some other gear. Sometimes they are kind of diamond cut like a gem or ruby, thats what I want. Preferably blue. Who has them nad where do I find it. Also, I want it to be able to run off a 9-volt battery for a while.

While we are on the subject... I'm making a wood grain single space rack face that I'm going to stick this little battery powered light on (yeah, its stupid, but I like lights and I want the thing to look more important than it what it is, a rack filler) I'm going to run my talkback mic into the back of it and want to wire an on/off/mom switch on the front so that I can either push it down to talk or flip it up to always-on. What should I get by way of a switch, where should I get it (I want it to look cool too) and which wires on a mic cable should I run into and to what contacts? Yeah, I know nothing. No phantom power of course. I hope.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Thats them, pretty much. Think a battery will run them? And, how do they mount. POint to a place that sells them.

These in perticular (Fender's) are not "self-lighting" so to speak. They cover a standard LED if I remember correctly and I think they screw on. Do a search for Fender amplifier jewels and you will get a bunch of retailers.

Thing is, I'm not sure who else if anyone makes them and how they can be modded, fitted for custom ...
 
If you want ultra bright and ultra cool-looking L.E.D.s and the small power supplies to run them, take a look at this site :

Great prices and service.
