Feb 14, 2017 at 16:18 comment added uhoh Wow, that's a very helpful analysis, thanks! LEDs have the possibility to be quite bright and at the same time can be turned on, stabilized in intensity, and then off very quickly, and so work with small-ish batteries. I don't know if there are products like that now, and probably not in 2009 when the photo was uploaded to Wikipedia.
