Pantas and knitting Headlights

I started another panta using the Sleeping Dragon Sock Yarn

I just may have to get myself a knitting headlight for nighttime car knitting (when I'm not driving). Is it powered by regular batteries?
little calculator batteries :)
What size needles did you use?
Thanks for your version of the pattern, it's much easier to follow.
Thanks for posting this pattern-I have been looking and looking!
