Led torch emergency kit, for £1?

Post by munchh »

I found these in pound land today, i have to keep looking in there as things like this pop up now again.

They have a high power led at the torch end (with a lense in front) and a normal one to light the hollow handle like a glow stick, there are 4 functions, torch, torch and stick, stick and flashing stick!

As they are only powered by 3 watch batteries the hollow could be filled with an emergency kit?

The top has a seal, so it could be a fire starting kit, or even a backup brew kit or plasters, sewing kit....... I'm sure we could all come up with what you would fill it with.

I bought them for my boys, but now ive had a play i'll be going back for a couple for myself, oh and more watch batteries. :geek:

They look interesting - something to add to the 'neighbours' kit I mentioned elsewhere. Thank you.
I'll have to pop into town for a mooch!

Certainly not a 'high power' led but could be useful :-)

I know what you are saying, it is from the £shop after all, but they are definately 2 different types in it.
The torch one is wider and shorter and brighter than the internal one.

I do like multi purpose! :D

I've just been getting the hand crank led torches from Poundland, will get one of these too.

What size and how many batteries do they take?
