The $2 LED Camera Light for Video and Photos

Step 2Drill Mount Hole

Drill Mount Hole
If you are going to mount this to your camera you will want to drill a hole in the top so a screw your 1/4" screw can pass through it. If you just want to make a cool flashlight skip to step three.

I chose to make a hole in the main body first and away from the switch and wires. The hole shown here is in a good position because we dont have to try too hard to squeeze the 3 LEDs in place. We also want the head of the screw to fit inside the holder.

Another reason for having the screw come out on this side is so when it is attached to the camera the power switch is on top, the bottom surface is flat, and the battery door and batteries are accessible.
