I sell these. They are actually pretty bright.

They damn well better make a UV one labeled BLACKLITE

Comes off in your pocket. Everytime.
nortotron
Then heats up a coin to flesh melting temperatures.

There's also a thing called a flashlight. It actually protects the battery and has a more effective lens.

Put... put your tongue on it
Roland191145
Long ago I had something very similar in my SERE kit. Called a cricket. It was a constant IR bulb that connected to a 9v bat. Neat.
Leaby333
Have two love em'.
Retrobot2
Wouldn't the battery get hot?
mrgetumgone9
Where's the link to buy it
dootdootiamgroot
Now do the same but with a taser at the end....prob wouldn't hurt to bad but more than I wanna feel cuz I'm a pansy
cousteau
The idea looks cool as hell, but it's probably too fragile and not too resistent to water.
LesLesVegetables
People still use 9v batteries?
doritofingers
Yes, for my bass pickups and smoke detectors
MotherfuckingRollyPolyChubbyCheekedShitMachine
What a time to be alive
t00tie
They have them at biltema
butterfingerist
Not long lasting, those LEDs drain it quick
DrTadakichi
It's a 9 volt slowly drainer!
Urgalicity
Add a waterproof seal
heresyinspector
No longer will you need to lick the battery to see if it is good or not.
Moljnir
...but don't let that stop you!
Leantath
You can use your tongue?! Man I've been buzzing my dick peeing on them to see if they had any charge left since I was a child
aselleus
Don't whiz on the electric fence!

Ren & Stimpy!
TheRicM
9" volt
viktortsoi
Bought mine from BILTEMA store.

Let's call it 9VLIGHT

...and kids, this is how you become a billiondare and also how you learn that you are insignificant...
bundleofwoodensticks
I have an ex nicknamed 9V
JonathanRobberts
Ah ha hahaha hahaha
aselleus
You'd beat them with a sack full of 9v batteries?
bundleofwoodensticks
Yes. Yes I did. You should have seen the way she lit up with joy.
ShinksAvoHazaar
Story?
bundleofwoodensticks
Like a 9V, it was sometimes necessary to check her charge...
ShinksAvoHazaar
Meaning she'd only light up off the lick?
RocketOtter
What a bright idea
whatupmyknitters
fun fact: if you throw this at someone, you will positively be charged with battery.
Minimiker
You'll be charged with battery.
nortotron
This concept is illuminating.
LesLesVegetables
This should be current news.

Enlightening

I'm ecstatic over this thread.

Brilliant idea until you realise that a 9 v battery won't have the optimal voltage for 90% of its life cycle
serenityfast
9 volt LEDs do exist. They're rare, but they exist.
timmy26
Sure they do. But what happens once the voltage of the battery drops below 8 volts? Be almost half as dull as it was in the first place
Zaayl
I dont understand, why wouldnt it?
timmy26
Because LEDs rely heavily on voltage and a battery will drops from its rated voltage within days, depending on the size.
Houstonruss
Well, I guess its a good thing that a 9v battery can drop over 6 volts and still drive 3v leds! (thru a vReg ofc)
timmy26
Sure, it might work in theory (IF there is enough current to sustain power flow). But in reality why would you even bother? 1/
timmy26
Spend 30-50 bucks and get a normal torch like the rest of us
insanumingenium
Or, place a buck converter in that sumbitch and ran those fuckers down to ~1.5V without any loss of brightness.
timmy26
Then the battery will die even quicker because you'll being running both the current and voltage dry.
insanumingenium
Area under that discharge curve only gets larger if you lower your cutoff voltage. Perhaps I didn't clarify the LEDs should be parallel.
timmy26
Sure does. But guess what, it's still a really shitty battery. You could get a longer life using 6x AA batteries
timmy26
Either way there is no logical reason for using this battery and light
iWillKickYourAssForSayinThat
I have one, they are not that great
Treydogg735
Why?
KawaiiPotatoChan
9v are not the greatest batteries as far as how much current they can deliver
Treydogg735
As quick light they work
Moljnir
Maybe it won't blind someone at 100 yards.
iWillKickYourAssForSayinThat
It wouldn't blind someone from 2mm away..
Treydogg735
Light is light
Moljnir
I had a little knife that looked like a shotgun shell. It was crap, but fun
reallyolddispatcher
..but then the TSA took it..
Zaayl
because knives arent allowed on planes.
OddOne8
I will have to disagree with Treydogg. I also have one and I love the little fucker. No it isn't the strongest torch in the world but (1/?)
Treydogg735
Whoa! I like the idea and have already ordered a few to have around.
OddOne8
the 6 LEDs are plenty bright. They will light up what ever you need them to. I use mine all the time. Highly recommend it. (2/2)
Slugs42
I agree, I use mine all the time, it also had a plow setting and high setting.
OddOne8
How do I get a plow setting? It sounds fun lol.
Slugs42
Lol, plow setting... low* setting
Slvrdgr
What's the brand of yours? Trey may have gone off brand and seen the results of paying for cheap crap
Slvrdgr
Stockton* not Trey
OddOne8
I actually have two of them one is called MicroBrite and the other one is called BlockLite. I prefer the MicroBrite because you can (1/?)
OddOne8
use the switch on it to use all six LEDs or flip it to the other side and just use two LEDs. The BlockLite has a button that turns (2/?)
