Universal flashlight tripod mount

[LukeA]

I saw this on Kickstarter, a website that helps people find funding to make art and/or practical products. It's called FlashNex. It's a spring clip that attaches to a 1/4-20 threaded camera tripod, like a Gorillapod or a regular tripod.

I'm not affiliated with the guy or the project or anything, but I thought it might be something CPFers may be interested in. The link features the inventor with a prototype demonstrating its uses. There are volume discounts too if anyone wants to put together a GB.

Would love to get one of these but can't find them online. Had to make up a rubber sleeve clamp holder with some hardware sitting around.

Nice work, steved3. A DIY solution like this is always better than store bought.
