You can get Sanyo HR-4/3FAUX 4500mAh cells for about $6 apeice from The Battery Station. These pack the most power for the weight are are the exact batteries used by Night Rider and others for their 6V systems. They are more powerful than those you would get with a Pro 12 which are probably 3000mAh Sub-C cells. You'll need 5 cells for your 6V digital Headtrip and 11 cells for the 13.2V. Get them with the solder tabs (free option). Then you wire them together in series, negative to positive. Then add some extra cable to the loose ends. Install a connector to fit you lights/charger from Radio Shack. You can make the batteries into a flat pack for the Headtrip or put them into a waterbottle with spray foam for the Pro-12.

Here's my detailed posting with more info on Do It Yourself lights...
