Step one, soldering an LED to the battery holder.
I got the battery holder for the flat 3v button cell battery from an old pc I have been scavenging parts from. It is the battery that powers the internal clock of the PC, and I guess every pc has one. You don’t need a battery holder at all, you could just use tape to attach on of the feet to the LED, but a battery holder makes things a little easier.
Remember to test the LED so you know you attach the correct leg to the right side of the battery.
I used solder and a soldering iron, but tape works fine.
