A nine volt battery and an led works quite well. =p

Wait, what kind of led? I thought they exploded failed when fed voltages as high as that..

Not every led. I have one here with 30watts that takes 12V

Does it need a heatsink?

 

[mcobit]

Yes, I use a cpucooler.

Curious, this was in the 90s and it was some crappy led from a random electronics stupor-store. It wasn't left on long so I don't know if this was a Bad Idea.


The one which was left on was also either designed to or hooked up to another toy to have it intermittently blink. That one lasted for months.
