I could easily do it if I bought another $20 Ryobi flashlight and cut / threw away everything but the battery connection hardware, but I hate throwing away usable things, and would rather not do that.

Another option would be to just jerry-rig something, which I could do, but that would require a considerable amount of time and brain power.

I was hoping someone had already done this, and could post about it with a description, or better yet, some pictures.

I tried doing a search for this topic, but even though most web forum search engines stink, the search function here tops them all, in that regard. Same with the "New Posts" or "Today's Posts" buttons. Both of them are a sick joke here.
