Lightbulb FRC Rules, and ideas; Flashlights...

So my team has been struggling to create a floor pickup system to grab frisbees from the ground.We have many ideas floating around, but we are having trouble on acuracy from the pits. So we had the thought that we could put a flashlight on our pickup mechanism, which is on the outside of the robots frame, so that the drivers can see the frisbees easily, and then pick them up.

So the question i pose top you lovely folks is, can you have a flashlight, laser pointer, etc on your robot?
And..... if so can said device have an internal batery, or does it have to be connected to the robots main power source?

I would like some feedback, from all you lovely folk, please reply so that our designing process can quickly proceed.

Thank you alot from FRC team 2522 Royal Robotics.
