Burning

[A Laser Kinda Guy]

Want a burning flashlight. Don't wanna spend over 75. A big host would be good too! Thanks everyone.

I don't understand the appeal. Blowtorches are good tools for burning/heating. A nice big magnifying glass is pretty cool on a sunny day.
I guess you need a big, battery sucking halogen light or something like that.

...agreed... I was trying to figure out what is so appealing about this concept. Don't you have to hold the flashlight so close to something to get it to burn/ignite that you might as well just use a lighter? Generally combustion and a flashlight are the two last things I want to hear in the same sentence.

...well...if you take a solarforce, add a blank pill with the negative and positive soldered together, insert an 18650, click the switch.... A burning torch for less than $75! 😛

Maybe i don't like lighters? And nevermind, a guy on Laser Pointer Forums found a way to make one for about $27.
