Let me add a belated word of caution about this flashlight business.  I would 
strongly suggest that you NOT use one of these new-fangled LED flashlights for 
this purpose.  I've got a couple that we use for camping and other nocturnal 
activities, one with 9 LEDs and one with 15.  They are great outdoors at night 
and shine brightly for hours and hours on a single set of batteries.  But they 
can cause eye damage if you look directly into the light, I have been told -- 
at least, that's what the printed warning that came with them says -- and I'm 
sure concentrating the light through a lens would only increase the potential 
for injury.

Let's be careful out there.

Walt
