Has anyone ran lights from the RCX outputs? I need something brighter than

I made several diffrent color (even flashing!) lights with the mini xmas
lights. they are real bright if you set the output to 8 or they work at
any level. I took the bulb out of the little plastic holder and soldered
wires to the wires on the bulb and covered it with heat shrink tubing.
they don't fit in a standatd lego hole but if you feed the wire thru the
hole you can pull it tight and the look very cool sticking out.
sorry if i don't make any sense i'm writing this in a hurry so if
somethings not clear mail me.
