DuraBeam Flip 1982 - 2017 Mod

I know 2 things about this project.

1. I know nothing about this project.

2. It’s CRX so it will most certainly be awesome.

This is an old one, nearly as old as I am, full of memories for me and probably some of you too.

No memories here. :person_facepalming:

Here’s some :wink:

Cool mod. The laser is a nice and unexpected addition. Next, maybe you could add some real working laser cannons on that spaceship! :crown:

I’ll see what I can do :smiley:

Nice mod!

Cool! :beer:

I have not seen either in years! Had the lego ship and wanted the light! Nice work!

So, does it still light when flipped open ?
Nice reuse of an old item, this sure brings back some memories :slight_smile:
2017 tech in a 1982 item, that’s a nice 35 years cooperation to bring the light :smiley:

Hey that is as old as me. I was born in 1982. Very nice!!!

Nice mod!
I was around in 1982 and can not remember that flashlight at all. It must not have been marketed in the Netherlands.

Yes I kept the flip open to light function as that is one of the main features and just single mode.
The light didn’t work at first due to the very heavily oxidised copper contacts in the head.

You reminded me I forgot something, magnets :smiley:

And trits :-p

And some EL-wire along the yellow striping. You got work to do! :stuck_out_tongue:

:smiley:

Cool good work mate!

Is this light meant to imitate a zippo? Its kind of got a similiar shape or i could be tripping lol.

How about building a light using a zippo? Sounds like a solid plan lol

LOVE IT!
nice writeup with the history lessen
Thanks!

:slight_smile:

It works like this, easiest UI ever

I think someone did something like that here, thinking about it :wink:

Edit

lumenzilla did one
