...and a small stick/dowel I found in my garage, and some clear packing tape. Good enough for my needs. Oh, and some zip ties of course...

I think I came across your post today...I'm thinking of going this route, if not using two metal coat hangers. I want my light to bend and hang from/over the neck of the cylinder, and of course use zip-ties and clear tape to give it that extra reinforcement. Thank you for sparking the idea!
 
Oooh, I like the idea of a flexible wire! Good thing I bought a 3-pack, I can maybe try that out next :)
 
I got a 36-inch LED strip light at Home Depot for around 20 bucks. I taped it to a straightened coat hanger. Then, I got Jethro Bodine** fancy and cut the cord to put a switch on it. This brought the total cost up to about $24. It's brighter than the fancy one the shop had from PSI and more versatile and rugged.
