Can you get us some clear end caps? Please... :)

I bought two of the diamond cut ones for the standard Volt batteries and drilled out the center of one of my stealth caps and glued it in. It worked out great and looks like it came from the factory with it. I figure sooner or later SI will offer us some clear ones but the diamond one has a cool effect with the blue LEDs, kinda like a Disco ball...

What do you hold it with while you are drilling? Is it fast?

I have a jewelers lathe in my shop and I held it in a collet to bore it out and when the glue was setup I turned down the back of the diamond cut plastic lens flush with the inside of the stealth cap. When my Daughter gets home from school next weekend I will post a picture of it. She absconded with my new Nikon digital camera, apparently she needed it more than I did or so the note said she left for me.

Sitting down, facing forward.

Hope she's not like my son and you see that camera again, in working order, LOL.
