I use a china cabinet light from IKEA. It is very small, circular and doesn't give off heat. It is plenty bright, and has a casing so it doesn't create unwanted light in the rest of the panel. It kinda looks like a hockey puck. It also comes with a standard power plug with inline switch. It cost like 9 bucks in Canada and extra bulbs were like a buck.
: I'm going to order a 3" Happ trackball (translucent blue), and I'm planning on mounting a light underneath it to make the li'l sucker glow.
: I dug around on Happ's site, but didn't see any appropriate part for the lamp; do they sell one, or should I just plan on jerry-rigging something up m'self?
: Thanks!
