I discovered that I own a wonderful device, the memory of which probably inspired my idea of the snake light. It looks very similar to this:
It's a USB-powered reading lamp with a flexible stem. These kinds of lights are available on Amazon for a few dollars.
Suddenly my design has taken a turn. Instead of having to design and build a power supply and mounting for the light, all that needs to be done is to install a USB port on the gas chromatograph. This is a much more elegant solution to the problem, involving no ideas foreign to the user, or major hardware changes. The users I have demonstrated it to all seem excited by the idea.
