Here's my 3-point hat construction:

It attaches with two clips on the hat (so it doesn't modify or damage the hat) and the red leds can be easily removed from the metal frame by removing the three screws.

This is my second handmade set using IR instead of red leds. I didn't have to modify my VX-800 to remove the IR filter, i just put a piece of developed film in a slide frame and attached it in front of my camera.

(the resistors are in the vertical tube hidden from view)

I am now powering the leds using an AC/DC adaptor to save on batteries!

While the batteries provide 6V i drive them from the adaptor at 4.5V.

It helps the leds stay completely cool without any brightness loss.
