Light Magic LED Mod

I thought the collective might be interested in this mod I did on my LIGHT MAGIC magnifier for the DMG.

I've basically replaced the old bulbs with two hi-intensity LEDs and replaced the dual AA battery pack with three AAAs. The whole thing can be done for less than $8, and increases the brightness by about 200% I'd estimate.

If anyone wants me to post a tutorial let me know...
