where would one get a leak light?

Buy a 6 foot stretch of rope lighting at a hardware store like Home Depot. Maybe a $10 purchase. The multiple lights in those are quite bright so you can check the whole horn at once.

Some reeds are longer than others. Are the reeds the same width? There's some room for difference, but clarinet reeds are quite skinny and I wouldn't expect them to work on a soprano mouthpiece though they just might if they were wide enough to touch the rails. The length from tip to vamp would be different, too. The true test would be to go buy a single clarinet reed and see how it fits and plays on your horn.

It's the same width; just about 1/4" to 3/8" longer. I tried a Vandoren 3.0 reed last night. While I can get a tone out, it requires much more effort than the stock 2.5 flying goose reed it came with. I may run the whole kit-n-kaboodle out to my local shop, and have them determine what reed best fits my needs. I have Vandoren 2.0, 2.5, and 3.0 single reeds, with Hemke 2.0 reeds on the way.

If it's the same width, then you've got yourself a soprano reed. Clarinet reeds are noticeably thinner. Takes me a couple of one hour sessions to break in a Vandoren 3.0 (or any reed for that matter) to know if it needs adjustment or not. All cane reeds are a little stiffer at first than they will be after after being played for a while. Once they are broken in, they hold steady for until wear and tear sets in - they they might get to be too soft. I've had cane reeds that played great right out of the box, but then I found them to be a little too soft once they broke in. Lightning may strike me dead for asking this, but have you tried or considered synthetic reeds? I'm not totally crazy about them on soprano, but they do work for some set-ups. I like BARI's and Fibracells on alto, tenor, bari, but on soprano, BARI's don't work as well intonation-wise as Fibracells. And Fibracells are more cane-like in their tone and performance.

The goose got shot! Got a box of Hemke 2.0 reeds on 2/24, and these are sweet! The Rico website claims this is the reed Kenny G uses (hold the bashing please). I'm satisfied, and for somebody who doesn't want a whole box of reeds (i.e. 10), the 5 pack is great! End of story.
