I wanted to test a few settings on my DFX tonight but it was completely dark outside. I have a bunch of those little 9 LED flashlights that run on 3 AAA batteries. I wrapped the shaft where I planned on mounting the light with a real thin foam that would serve 2 purposes. 1 - keep the light from sliding around the shaft and 2 - prevent the shaft from getting scratched from the light. I placed the light on the shaft far enough from the coil that it wouldn't cause interference and then used two black zipties to fasten it and trimmed the excess off. The light has a push button on/off switch on the back of it. With the zipties and foam around the shaft that light doesn't budge. I was planning on removing it when I was finished but it worked so well I think I'll keep it on. I probably won't use it a ton but it's nice to have it on there and available. It doesn't add any weight at all to the machine.
