With an average of 2500mAh for an alkaline AA battery, they should last about a week to ten days as the LEDs will draw between 15 - 10 mA If you turn them off whilst you're asleep you can boost their life to 11 - 16 days. You could connect 4 AA cells in 2 parallel sets of 2 cells in series to double the battery pack's capacity / lifespan. Giving you a month from 4 x AA cells.

@JmeTN Clumsy CraftsYou should do the project you imagined. thats one of the thing I love about tested is that we can all put our ideas out there and maybe inspire someone else like Adam and the team does for us.

[@alexhetherington8028]

@JmeTN Clumsy Crafts When I seen the video i instantly thought of making a green lantern lantern.It would make a great display piece in a home cinema room whether it's an actual projector for the movies or as an actual lamp.

[@robrocksea]

@@alexhetherington8028 Was my first thought as well. but now that I know they are easy to find old hood style, Lamp say hello to Green Paint.

[@filanfyretracker]

How I would do this is find a way to use one of those LG 4k protectors that looks like a rectangular tube and sits on the floor because I suspect with some creativity one could find a way to hide that, put the reflector up inside the lantern housing while keeping the optical assembly in the projector and then hide the projector in some kinda fancy looking coffee table Rather than trying to stuff low grade projector hardware into a lantern you have the projector firing up into and then out of the lantern. I only suggest this LG because it has a mirror by default its onboard firmware can flip an image, I suspect if you tried to mirror a normal projector you would get everything reversed. I personally could not afford to do this idea I said above but it comes off to me as the best way to get a lantern projector and not have to figure out how to stick projector hardware into a lantern. faking it is half of prop builds I feel.

[@JoshuaBlomberg]

As someone who works in the theatre department, I can confirm that we do, indeed, build the insides of lanterns using LEDs, plywood, and hot glue. Also used the tissue paper that they sell with lighting gels as a diffuser - worked brilliantly.

[@djmips]

I'm sure it would be more brilliant without the diffuser.. :p

Those bulbs are so fun! We used them for Lumieres' hands in "Beauty and the Beast." We used a drill battery to power them and kept it in a waterproof bag on the actors back. Ran the wires down his coat and there were plugs connecting to the candle stick hands so he could take them off in-between scenes. It allowed the actor to turn the bulb on and off onstage without needing a license for pyro and it kept everyone safe! :) Love the channel!

[@Joe___R]

I am very surprised that Adam has only recently discovered 3M Dual Lock tape, it has been out for over 10 years now. Dual Lock is by far superior to standard Velcro, you don't have to worry about which side does the hook or loop go on, it has stronger holding ability and it doesn't collect fuzz or hair. There is no reason to ever use traditional Velcro anymore.

[@BungAngus14]

That's not Plumbers tape Adam. Its HVAC tape.

[@Iskelderon]

Awesome project! That gaffer trick reminds me that one of these days you really need to do an episode with Mike Okuda, Doug Drexler and Rick Sternbach on all the crazy stuff they and their compatriots did to bring that avalanche of Star Trek shows from the 80s to the 2000s to life and still stay within tight budgets and still deliver those episodes on time, even when two shows were in production at the same time and practically buying supplies out from each other's feet. That crazy bunch used so much tape, you could've probably wrapped the Chrysler building in it.

[@Bleats_Sinodai]

It's an array of LEDs controlled by a microchip that turns them on an off in a sequence that makes them look like burning fire. It also has a tilt sensor to detect which direction is down so it can flip the direction of the fire.

Fun fact about the "velcro", about 10 years ago I had some Lego set, or it possibly was part of the Lego Mindstorms Competition toolset that we got at school in the robotics club, was 2 by 2 stud sized squares of this very same velcro, and I still have 53 of these one sided velcro squares. I love these. I have used these for many things in the past.

Love how the shop employees are going on about their jobs, while the boss fools around on the internet! Very cool build, Adam. More "how to's" would not be a bad thing for 2020. Cheers!

[@CorwynGC]

Except that fooling around on the Internet IS the job, while making things off camera is just personal time.

[@Pippy1]

The swiftness at which he builds is so fun to watch. U can tell adam really enjoys what he does

[@CheesyMcBeard]

Use me as a "Please bring Adam Savage's Tested and The Modern Rogue together in one video" button.

[@thiccumboi]

Nah.

[@anitaswart.]

Thank you for an amazing build. So many detailed information, I will watch again. Love the finish. Going to get me a step drill, have seen it on Laura's videos. I will use its on my planters for drainage. I am probably your oldest fan, grew up in South Africa and living in the UK, very claustrophobic... In the 60s girls were very limited in what they were supposed to do. Teacher or some academic stuff, ended up with cottage industry doing a lot of scroll sawing. 68 and have discovered KZbin and it is super fascinating, so inventive and practical that I can understand and be really entertained with a smile. Velcro very clever, got to get some. Thank you and God bless

[@adventurecollectibles2370]

I believe the generic term for Velcro is “hook & loop fastening tape.”

[@HairyBottom]

Adventure Collectibles Yep. Velcro is the company that patented hook & loop tape.

[@theherrdark4834]

@@HairyBottom It is amazing how a company name becomes the general term for an item even if multiple companies make it, just like Crescent.

[@jdinnis]

Except that particular variety has neither hooks nor loops.

[@BlueInfinity44]

Allen Wrench(hex key), Vise-Grip(locking pliers), and Channel Lock(groove joint pliers) became household names as well.

[@5hiftyL1v3a]

@@theherrdark4834 thats actually really bad for the companies too. if it is deemed to have become the default term, they lose their copyright. Escalator is a great example. The generic term would be 'moving walkway', but when they were first released the company failed to provide a generic term. Asprin is another example. Xerox actually had a massive ad campaign in the 90's to get people to stop using Xerox as a generic term for photocopying - ie: you photocopy with a Xerox, not make a Xerox copy. Stanley is another company that is struggling (particularly in Australia) where their boxcutters have becomes so synonymous that everyone will call them a Stanleyknife reguarless of brand. Esky is another one.

What's that striping tool? I need one yesterday...

[@Mr2at]

Didn’t I watch this last night?

[@terryprideaux]

I think something happened to the upload.

[@bernieponcik1351]

He had me at double A battery holder... 3!!! 3 volt! Ha Ha Ha! 5 days! Magnificent...

[@suzithewitch]

1:33 I can do this! 1:45 Umm... okay, I can probably do this. 2:15 Welp, maybe I can modify this to something I can do?

[@geekdomo]

I bought that 1 sided velcro a few years ago because its what they use here in NYS for EZPass. I could only get a huge roll at the time. Was kinda bummed but man its been super useful!

[@thatboy3930]

Him cutting towards his hand with power tools gave me all sorts of anxiety

[@spunkmeyer43]

Just shut up you bore...

[@paracosmicSTL]

This is no "how to" video. This is the holy scripture of prop design.

[@matheighway]

Sadly, the flame lamp that Adam uses doesn't seem to be available in the UK. I bought one which looked identical, but when I took it apart it wasn't a simple conversion to 3V after all. Does anyone know of a version with the 3V interstices that's available outside the US? Thanks.

[@ljamestee3358]

Amazin sell battery operated versions now. £23 for 2

[@SarahMaeBea]

Adam: This is a how to! *about 2 seconds later* Adam: I'm going to need "some wood" cut "just so". ... so, not a how to then? lol Still a wonderful video and I'm definitely getting a few of those flame bulbs. Happy 2020, Tested!

[@5hiftyL1v3a]

huh? measure and cut them like he did. each lantern isnt going to be the same.

[@-MrFozzy-]

If I believed in God...I’d thank him for you Mr Adam!

[@skezus]

Adam: "I have hearing loss." also Adam "I'm too cool for hearing protection"

[@BarattaMagic]

Great video! More builds like this!!!!
