Thanks for all the input.  I decided to give these a try: 
http://www.ebay.com/itm/10-pcs-x-9-Volt-...#ht_3341wt_1342To start off, I just want simple lights.  Don't need waterproof.  (Next round I might).
These have a low and high switch.  They are a lot less expensive than the others so if the quality is good, they will do the intended job.  I will give you a report when I get them.
I now am intrigued with the higher end ones, the encased waterproof ones.  (It just never ends does it?!)
