Hi,
check this out if you will.

A phantom-powered mixer light

Is it too late at night, or am right to be having a WTF moment?

Cheers

Well, of course. But my WTF moment was more along the lines of "I think I'd like to have all my mic pres available to me".

I can think of a least half a dozen gigs where I wish I'd had one of those in my kit.

and no doubt you could plug it in at the end of a mic lead / stage box and have light where ever you need it

Awww. Now that Rob's endorsed the idea, I'll have to bear the weight of mocking laughter when I buy one.

oooo, in the stage box - I like it!

If you've got a DriveRack and you're not using the RTA mic input during the gig, you could connect a channel from your multicore to it for phantom - no channels taken from your desk.
