MonkSeal:
UK SL4 is commonly used for this purpose and it is declared as 6V bulb but I wouldn't rely on this for backup purposes.

Why not? (DIR purism aside.)

Because of the safe margin. If it's backup light than it's better to be reliable then to be bright.

BTW I think I made a mistake. If I remember well UK SL4 is 5.1 V rated.
 
Use the DiveRite for a back-up and it has proven very reliable and bright with over a 4hr burn time. Would not be a bad choice at all. Its also smaller than the 3c cell versions so easier to fit on the harness if you are small.
