Pocket sized LED (Altoids) flashlight

This "Ible" will detail how to make an LED flashlight in an Altoids smalls container. I had thought about making this a cooler more complex thing, but because I made it so simple it is very durable (if made well)

Step 1: Supplies

You will need.

1 Altoids "smalls" tin
1 White LED (I used 3MM)
1 soldering gun/iron
1 ultra finepoint sharpie
1 small toggle switch
1 hotglue gun
1 dremel tool
2 Cr2032 watch batteries
and, Electrical tape, spare wire, and some needle files would be helpful.

can you just use a 2-cell AA holder?

[oldanvilyoungsmith]

you could, but 2 AAs won't fit in this tin, you would have to use a large tin.

Combine this with another Altoid Tin instructable and you could have a thing of beauty.

its a small light, huge for an led light. i dont think you can call it "ultra small".
