For me I found the orientation of the heli much easier to keep track of due to it being on a dark background, when I fly during the day I wear sunglasses as my eyes are a little light sensitive, do you have a ballpark figure so I know what it'd roughly cost to turn my 500 into a nightflyer

It is possible to make night blades from any std blade - there is a long thread on it on helifreak.
Night blades are expensive - the align ones fly great (well the 425 and 600 ones anyway) but the lipos in them are notoriously unreliable. I just fitted my 600 ones with external lipos as one was on the way out (lasting only 1 flight).
You use some little 130 maH eflifght style lipos stuck on and shrinkwrapped to the root.
