Torch in the Washing Machine

It's a part of "Foy test". A flashlight can't be labeled with "Approved by Foy" without a shower! LOL

I can assure everyone that no light tested by Foy is pissed on by Foy. Besides; if I did that I would have to chase the light. (can you move a 980L without your hands?)

my FENIX L0D

goes through the wash in my work trousers pocket every week and has done for the last three years with no issues

What an odd lot ..Say no more wink wink nudge nudge ,say no more .

I've heard people say they take their light with them everywhere they go ..showering just is over the top ...on the other hand it makes me feel much more normal to have you guys so twisted .. thanks for that .

So this actually means that you piss in the shower…
Aahh i love the characteristics of a real man! :d

Hahahahahaha :d

I wonder how your washing machine would survive such an experience! :bigsmile:

I guess it would give a new meaning to the IPX rating. It would be an " I P on my flashlight" rating.

Some people will do anything to get a white tint.

1/2 cup of bleach for a cool white

1/4 cup neutral

add 1 orange shirt , 1 yellow towel and a tan sock for warm white

That's good to hear. Seriously the mid level priced stuff below Surefire like Tiablo/Olight will surive quite a lot of abuse too (Tiablo is not THAT expensive)....in fact crazy amount of abuse like being shot by a shotgun and surive the ordeal. Even for budget lights like my Ultrafire U-80, recently I used this for self-defence (sort of) by throwing it at my target.....well it missed and hit concrete. The throw was like prob a 3-4 storeys drop kind of thing, dented/chipped the concrete about 1-inch by 1/2 inch and 2-3mm deep.....nary a scratch other than 2 very small nicks and the HA being scraped off at the tailcap and front.

For you has been an accident, but I have done him of intention!

Haaa! I love it. Thanks for the fun video! That's pretty impressive that both your torch and your washing machine could withstand that! :)

Better than TV - thanks for the test.

Thanks sb56637; I sometimes I test my torches in washer; in dishwasher,... and also in the blender.

I make this to know the real possibilities and reliability of my torcies.

That was a pretty cool test. Now I can finally justify the purchase of a new washer with a window in it.

The effect when it was on the spin cycle was great :)

Which made me think, why don't they fit LED's in washing machines....ahh crap I'm obsessed.

:P

Wheres the strobe when we need it!

Very cool Katun!

I took an unplanned couple-hour swim in the local bay, with my leatherman-branded light in my pocket... not a hint of moisture in it afterwards. Was quite pleasantly surprised.

The rhythmic clunking noise, the muted light flash sliding from left to right... was anyone else reminded of an old photocopier running off a dozen copies?
