i would go with the button "watch batteries" that are about the size of a nickel
Code:
___________________
|"""""""""|
|_________|
"""""""""""""""""
the "square" in the middle is the watch batery, when a drink is placed on it the contacts on either "plate" of the coaster touch the battery and complete the circuit, stack several batteries as needed, they should be relatively easy to change anyway, and they last several months even years in a watch that is under continuous use, two leds used once in a while wont take that much powah
