Turn a common flashing red LED safety beacon into an infrared beacon which you can only view using your night vision device. Good for marking hidden caches or allies while you're on your missions.
All you need to do is replace the red LEDs with infrared LEDs. You can get drop-in replacement infrared LEDs from Radio Shack or from old TV remote controls. Be sure to watch the LED's polarity, anode is positive, cathode is negative.
