I just ordered these, they look like a good prep item.
I also try to type in the dark after everyone goes to bed, so I could use these to see the keyboard at night.
Look for less late night typos in the future!

Post Re: Finger flashlights
I don't like the small stuff that takes small button batteries. I can buy a package of AA's for what two or three of the button batteries cost. They're neat but... I don't see them having a very long run time. You might want to try a LED Head Lite for after hour keyboarding.

I prefer AA's then AAA's. I have rechargeables and a solar charger for when there's no power.

I admit I have an INOVA Microlight (takes BIG button batteries) but it's just for fun. It does not go on a finger.

My mini MagLite is my main disaster light in my BOB. I upgraded my mini MagLite to LED so it runs even longer now but the beam doesn't focus as well as a standard bulb. MagLites are rock solid.

NiteIze makes a headband for small AA flashlights.

There are several single AA LED lites out there. Gerber makes some; they bought out CMG which had a nice lite.

It's just some suggestions. Have FUN!
