Actually, it won't be raining quite yet. Although the Nitelight Indeglow
panel is AC powered (115V, .0003W -- I cut one open to find out!), the watch
sized panels are not. They are 3V .0003W devices. I have also seen these
panels used to illuminate pins at parties. The pins ran on two watch batteries
and had three of these panels. I assume You'd need 6x4 for a TI-92 and 4x3 for
the TI-85, but that's just a guess (I'm sure there are different sizes).
Soooo.. if anyone has or knows where to get the watch-sized Indeglow panels
which run on DC(?) voltage, PLEASE let me know.
