Torch in the Washing Machine

I was ironing a pair of trousers when I suddenly hit an obstacle. Long, cylindrical... oh shit! Checking the pocket confirmed that I had forgotten to remove my EDC before putting them in the laundry.

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

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?
