Most tackle shops carry both types. The battery powered tip light is simply an 
led powered by a watch type battery with a simple on off switch. The tip  light
can be whipped to the tip of the rod.
Usually available in either red  or green. Chemical varieties are cheaper but
have a limited life. Once  activated, they cannot be turned off. These should be
fastened to the tip  with eletricians tape or similar as you will need to change
them on a regular  basis. My choice would be the battery powered version.
