Krill lights are another handy item to have in the cockpit. They run on
a single AA and will last 40-50 hours. The light does not destroy your
night vision. Also available in assorted colors.

Then there's plain-ol' cyalume lightsticks. Assorted colors, long-term
storage, long-lasting, fairly cheap. You can also buy holders that let you
modulate the amount of light released. Good option for emergencies, or for
folks who fly at night only rarely.

Don't leave the cyalumes in the aircraft. The higher the temperature the
shorter the shelf life.
