Default Light for 3D or indoor scope?

Just yesterday, I took the big black spot off the lense of my Black Eagle scope, to replace it with a up-pin w/ .029 fiber in it for 3D. I know there will be conditions in a shoot where I struggle to see that pin. What do you guys have rigged up for lights? I know Matt/PA had a interesting looking one at Harrisburg........what did you have rigged up? I would love to come up with a plan to get this thing lit up when I need it.

You could get one of these lights and mount it to the sight bar.

They only cost a few bucks

Rick;
The light you ordered works well.. my husband uses the same one on his scope... Sureloc also came out with a sight light this year.. it works great also but is a bit pricey.

Do you know where I can find more info on this Sure Loc light? I am very curious about this, my scope is a black eagle w/ the Swarovski lense. I am wondering if this will be plug and play.............

Rick:
The Sureloc Website looks like it hasnt been updated for 2006... Try contacting them and ask them to send you the 2006 catolog... or try checking with Lancaster they may be carrying it.
Sorry I dont have the catolog here at home or I would scan and upload a pic for you.
