Toothpick dispenser LED light setup idea. Took TP screw on dispenser. Drilled cover center. Placed 1/2" thick starboard circle in to fit inside clear part with 3/4 recess for bulb base.

PARTIAL ASSEMBLY

I suspect you can probably buy the same commercially made for about $9.99

I just hang mine from the Bimini support when night fishing with a couple alligator clips to connect. I will probably add a foil tape to the back half so that it does not shine directly in my eyes.

By the way, I tore out the little festoon light in my Hella fixed anchor light on the Radar bar and epoxied one of these in (works great)
