A light for the juice tank ?

Anyone have issues with checking your juice level in the dark ?

Im thinking a simple approach would be to add an led light on the deck of a mod opposite where the 510/tank is. If you turned on the light and held the thing in your hand, reflected light would probably be enough to see the juice level ?
The light would double as a simple flashlight, of course - ya know for getting your house key into the lock in the dark or whatnot.

On the other hand, the light could be inside the tank itself, since there's power to the coil available. The light would have to be compatible to the range of voltage and as long as you coupled it with a high res resistor there would be next to no effect on the mod's circuits/ coil heating.

The eVic AIO screen already does this. KInd of handy in total darkness. Also, there's that new Limitless tank, but it lights underneath the coil.

I did this once on the delta II(anyone thats owned one can undetstand..)using a 1mm flat diode and 1/4w resistor. It worked fine and only removed about .05ml of the capacity but I ended up removing it because I didn't fully trust it even though it was air tight. My problem was that my design was flawed in that it was plastic and heatshrink exposed to ejuice and I've seen what juice can do to synthetics so I didn't want to chance any leaching of oils into my juice.
So yea,it works but I couldn't justify any potential hazards when I have some form of light source on my person 99% of the time.
A light on the deck would be nice but with the delta,it wouldn't help.

Take apart a led Tea light and stick the innards on the deck with 3M waterproof double sided tape.
