Is it as simple as using one of the spare bins? Yes and no...
To "inform" the system that it needs to use the new item, you'll have to edit jkstrings.uni and add a new entry for your item. In jkstrings.uni, scroll down till you get to the part that says "ACTIVATE16" 0 "Field Light". Enter a new entry such as "ACTIVATE17" 0 "New Item Here". Don't forget to update the # of messages at the top of the file. Then open up items.dat and at the bottom add a new line -> f_jump 116 1 1 0x122 cog=item_newitem.cog

That should work....
