TELESPOPING FLASHLIGHT

3xAG10 batteries
3xLEDs (though they are not advertised as High power LOL)
and a magnetic beZel ring

ENJOY kostas

Pretty cool,

The problem I can see with it is,the window will get scratched fast if you use it to pick up screws.And as it's low powered I think the extension is a must fully extended to light the path you walk :laughing:

A thrower that has an extra 57.5cm throw.

It looks like the perfect light to use when walking late at night. If you're accosted by a mugger, extend it and use it like a telescoping baton. If that doesn't work, use the magnet to screw up the mugger's pacemaker (disclaimer: may not be effective on muggers born after 1940).

Ya-so kostas! I know I butchered the spelling, it's all Greek to me!!!

Billy Mays will be hawking this soon!

Very clever design. They could improve it by extending the magnetic bezel to protect the lense.

I think I saw one of these at my local Harbor Freight, the last time I was there. Doesn't feel well made.

So I deduce from that, use as a walking stick is out the question? :ohgeez:

indeed... but if it is NOt well made (as expected) then it redefines the Thrower flashlight....

Fling the extension too hard and you get a Throw flashlight

LOL LOL LOL :crackup:

I've got one of those! Not exactly the one shown but the same thing, light with a magnet with a telescoping handle. You would not believe how handy it is for retrieving dropped screws from deep dark hiding places in the engine compartment of car.

I have something similar that is made by Craftsman. It is surprisingly useful.

I have one of those too...very well made, and the light is recessed for protection.

BTW, I just checked and it's an incan!
