He said usb. Plug it into the dash usb plug if you got one. Or I’m sure it would run off a portable battery pack usb for a while as well

Might want to check out the glow cup from west coast tackle. Small for spoons on the kayak. Fits in a cup holder.

Could you post up some links to the products you used ?
I would be interested in making a few of these boxes or something similar

You bet.
The case (couldn't find anything cheaper that was the right size)

The mirror (might be able to get away with not using this but I thought the more reflectivity the better)

So just white lights? Not UV light?

I have one, did not know it would fit in a cup holder though, I used the little bracket that came with it.

Yup, trialed it and 3 minutes of exposure had those west coast spoons glowing for 30+ mins, Gibbs spoons for 10 min.

Can't see the big ones on the West Coast Tackle website only the small 6 inch ones. I thought they had a big one to hold a flasher?

Fresh water size flasher, they are made in Ontario. I asked the builder about one for our gear. Nothing yet I know of. He’s on Facebook.
