OMG! I had one of these as a boy. Thank you so much for bringing back memories of continuing to read a nonput-downable book after lights out under the duvet - with exactly that flashlights! Keep up the good work!
You are extremely talented - Most things I have taken apart I have had extra parts OR was just never able to get them back into place - Your knowledge is truly amazing.
This type of torch still have in our hypermarket in Malaysia...I think it's made in India... that material same as I know...maybe different brand....anyway nice restoration... cheers
фонарик настоящий, а все остальное большая лажа; у нас такой был лет 50 назад, там ни грамма пластика, а здесь на 2:38 пластмассовая деталь; поверхности которые взаимно перекрывались просто новье и внутри тоже, хотя сложно представить что бы за время эксплуатации ни разу не "потекли" элементы; на 11:07 вставляет старую, сточенную им на 2:37 заклепку, просто вставляет не усаживая ее; резюме - годный фонарик искусственно состарен без особых затей лишь по внешним поверхностям, сама конструкция простая и дешевая, поэтому такие фонарики даже сейчас возможно купить на алике или на улице на раскладках
Have a 2 cell Ray O Vac Sportsman my FIL owned 50 years ago. All I do with these is unscrew and spray with terminal cleaner and screw together again a couple of times. Works the way it did then. Before Mag Lights, police used the 5 cell Ray O Vac. Many wrapped them with black electric tape.
Nice refurbishing project. But honestly, with the new LED flashlights available these days that last longer and put out tons more light, that type flashlight isn't much in demands anymore. Another situation where technology makes older things like that near obsolete. Thumbs Up!
You can use it with an LED drop-in (the emitter + driver assembly in the form factor of a traditional incan bulb). Heck, you can even use a high CRI warm white emitter to emulate the incandescent color of lighting.
Not true - as these old flashlights consumed a lot of energy (around 890mA), the batteries were sized accordingly, two D types were standard (6000mah) giving around 7 hours of energy. If you now take one of these old flashlights and put in a modern LED that consumes around 90mA, you get an astonishing 70 hours of battery as a result of the large batteries these types of torches have. This is really cool and I do not think they're obsolete at all. Not even factoring into account that these classic metal ones with the curved enlarged end for the reflector look so much better than personality-less tubes of coloured plastic. Sure they're smaller but swap in an LED into the older ones and they are just as bright, have a far superior battery life and are much more durable as a result of being made of metal.
This flashlight has nothing to do with the word antique. It's from the late 70 or early 80, I know because my parents had one. By the way, it's a nice restore video.
Nice cleaning. it looks like laying in salty water two days before. Big show for nothing. If you do not start with ambitious content in near future I will cancel my patreon membership
Sorry but that’s only light rust. You could almost brush that off without a wire brush. Not what I would call a restoration and certainly doesn’t need a sand blaster to clean it. Regardless, you cleaned it. I grew up with these back in the ‘70’s. They were POS then and still are, no matter how hard you clean it. 👎🇦🇺

My uncles used to have one back in the 90's. Thanks for reviving my memory. Great job 👌
I’m amaze how we saw anything with these flash lights. Lol. Good restoration
I have this flashlight in home
Круто сделано!
У нас такой был на даче, когда я была маленькой. Правда ни дня не вибела его работающим. Только сейчас увидела в этом сюжете

How you managed to rivet the switch from the inside,
will have to remain a mystery.

I remember having a flashlight like that as a young girl.

Strange rusting pattern.
For nickel plate.
Хорошая работа, хороший китайский фонарик,у меня такой был в детстве
У меня тоже был, пользы от него правда не было, батарейки высаживал за час.
Hello mister beautiful Flashlight good job well done
Anyone else from the 70's immediately recognise this Lightsaber?

I had one to make bats fly away from our country side house in Brazil.

Excelente trabajo. Esa linterna debe ser de los años 70'.
Great work , and you have kept some parts in that restoration a secret.

cool result!
What was the heavenly music behind most of the video?
Great job.
Thank you
Flashlight from Vietnam :)))
When media blasting , with something like that , suggest you use bicarb ,less aggressive on the material ,will save a lot of sanding time
Thank you for your comments
🔦🔦🔦🔦 good
good one, well done
Nice work!
TIGER 👍
Just the scenario
"Buy some new or good things, make it dirty and just wipe it"
Taraaa... You have new from the new one
That would make for one entertaining RUclips video!
I agree
Electrolysis would have replaced all that hand sanding
That's not antique! It's from the 80's!
Хорошая работа.
Good
But you must focus more♥️🌹🌹👏
Well done, keep going!
Thank you
Her that's a pretty serious restoration, great work mate!
Must be nickel plated. It will rust in minutes.
U can use those things as weapon to !
اووووو هذا يوجد لدينا وا اكثر من واحد وفي الكرتون جديد
đèn pin thời 1990
Phony restoration. Muddy on outside and clean and shiny inside. Come on.
common thing to see ... given the characters/construction of the flashlight, not abnormal .
I agree
11:10 how did you put that bolt locked
Me: No way he can restore this
World Restoration: Hold my 🔧
Everything is fine except the mud, everyone can do that.
👍🌟😍👑💎😂
this lamp is popular on 80s and 90s...hope you check out my version of lmp restoration..love and appreciate that..tnx alot.
Perfeito.
Siri, turn on flashlight

Actually, it is from the 1960's. I know. I am from the 1950's.
Late 70s/Early 80s IS antique! Time flies...
Early 80s was 40 years ago, my dude.
Oh come on! Covered in mud an rust on the outside and zero corrosion inside? Restoration not so "amazing".
What was the material in a little glass jar
The approach is too aggressive in my opinion.
What no lubricant on the treads !
Thank you for comment

Неплохо, но думаю никелирование некоторых деталей не помешало бы
thank you for comment
This is not antique it is still available in indian markets
Falsa restauracion... Muy brillosa para ser muy vieja esa lampara... Trata de esforzarte un poco mas...
Не-а.....

Maybe it has been laid in salty water 2 days before.
It don't take me a full minute to see that its a flashlight. Get on with it already.
Yeah, that was a little long.
