i liked the "leak light detection" suggestion and could do double duty as
that.

I posted some images on EEVBLOG which resulted in

"A Numark “turntable target light” is a small cueing lamp used on certain
Numark DJ turntables to illuminate the record surface right where the
stylus lands, so you can see grooves and cue accurately in low-light DJ
environments"

And an image search for "Numark turntable target light" finds exact matches.

e.g.
https://www.musicstore.com/en_OT/EUR/Numark-Target-Light-for-TTX-1-/art-DJE0001644-000

A search for the power requirements gave mixed results. Some say 12v others
3.3V
