500 LED Extreme flashlight

[@04mach1speed]

Man it’s been years since I watched this. Thought I would go back for the hell of it and see how much technology changed. Crazy how a single AA/14500 flashlight with an XPL emitter destroys this thing now. Mind blown

[@Blackinterceptor999]

you guys that are talking bad about this, just look at the upload date than think about how far led tech has come in the last few years...the fact that i'm using LED bulbs in my house and paid less than 5 bucks for them is simply amazing, and they put out a TON of light.....Something that was impossible or very very expensive in 2008.

[@rxyzgxyz3058]

+Jay Simons Uh... They cost $18.00+ where I live. It's cheaper to set my house on fire plus it's much brighter.

[@Blackinterceptor999]

I bought mine at my local hardware store for $3.99 they are only 9w but they compare to a 60w bulb as far as light output and they don't get hot.

[@Mitri_the_teifling]

led lights have been around for about 10 or 15 years now I'm pretty sure.

[@Blackinterceptor999]

The first LEDs were developed in the early 1960s, however, they were low-powered and only produced light in the low, red frequencies of the spectrum. The first high-brightness blue LED was demonstrated by Shuji Nakamura of Nichia Corporation in 1994.

[@MrDoggydog68]

+Jay Simons You did not mention litronix in the 70's.

[@iFlumed]

So, this is where I'm at in my life… watching flashlight videos before I go to sleep.

[@TheAlpine49]

Considering this was made 10 years ago. I'd say this was and still is, incredible! Good job!

[@Geonious]

The Finding Bigfoot crew needs that flashlight.

[@tiekogalaxylatte8839]

totally agreed C:

[@geoh7777]

"Sorry for the lack of music or voice over." So many uploaders put a too-loud, crappy music background over their mumbly narrative, making it even harder to understand. Glad you didn't make that mistake. .

[@holdwholetruthholy1511]

Word!!!

[@081908009999]

+geoh7777 agreed, mumbly narrative is annoying as hell.

[@TheSteelamerican]

You're missing one simple thing, that could make that light more concentrated. A mirror around the lens.

[@xbeast133]

Holy shit you're a genius

[@TheSteelamerican]

xbeast133 :D

[@AtomFlipper]

you are bleeding light out of the sides, by not having a reflective cone over the led lights to direct the light towards one direction.

[@doright6461]

Oz Ants I agree! like a cylinder of light! Like laser without the light, amp, stim, elecron, radiation. Much is in the the mirror ))

[@austin3627]

[@AtomFlipper]

***** what is wrong with you?? internet tough guy, speak to people like that in real life, you will get punched in the face but you won't will you, chicken shit punk, only is aggressive online out of reach

[@mikegallamore4758]

***** Or a flashlight even :) Good job building it but obviously would need to be scaled down so you could use it with one hand. Though I suppose some police/security guards would prefer a two handed model for better "clubbing over the head"ability.

This old school LED Flashlight is brighter than all these haters futures.

[@bryanr.3241]

LOL that was dim as shit , and how much did it cost to make. I'm impressed that you built it but , do you know the problem with it ?? No lens or anything to help magnify all the led's.

[@TheVideoVolcano]

exactly, you're correct. They should have got a lens.

[@TheLukey21]

TheVideoVolcano i may upload a video of my 100w led so if you wana see some bright led its focused with 2 lens and i should have it done within a week if the rest of the parts arrive. It works still but my battery protection circuit isn't complete.

[@bryanr.3241]

Yea , up load it here so we can check it out. Thanks

[@TheLukey21]

Bryan Resch i definitely will, i am not sure when but i definitely will

[@bryanr.3241]

Look forward to it. I appreciate seeing people's talents here on KZbin.

[@johnsmith-tf8xb]

1:15 Missile launch sequence

[@JoshuaEFinley]

The only thing it is missing clearly is something to reflect and focus the light to where you want it to go instead of out in all directions. That will increase the brightness to extremes.

[@sermerlin1]

i bet with focused light you could poke someones organs with that thing.

[@SonariNeiracchen]

I wonder how powerful that would make it. I mean, if you could focus it to be thin like a laser, would it burn anything?

[@Dr_Dumbass]

Sonari Neiracchen I imagine so, since there are LED lasers

[@gnmpolicemata]

Sonari Neiracchen well... A definition of laser... A laser is a device that emits light through a process of optical amplification based on the stimulated emission of electromagnetic radiation. The term "laser" originated as an acronym for "light amplification by stimulated emission of radiation". A laser differs from other sources of light because it emits light coherently. Spatial coherence allows a laser to be focused to a tight spot, enabling applications like laser cutting and lithography. See? A laser - Spatial coherence allows a laser to be focused to a tight spot. It is something like concentrated light.

[@BlakeWillsComedy]

Gnm Software 2012 | Gnmpolicemata What the fuck are you talking about

[@TheGoodChap]

you need to build a parabolic reflective cone to massively amplify and direct scattered light

[@ASSman864]

fr

[@holdwholetruthholy1511]

100% on point. The cone makes a dramatic difference in the performance of any flashlight. As it appears in the video, it's a really well-built... lantern

[@TorontoDrivingVideos]

Damn the comments are really dumb, this was in 2008! This was amazing back then. That is like saying haha look at that commodore 64 my iphone is better

[@Niiixxxx]

Exactly. Ain't no International Karate on iPhone

[@keremdenizerkisi5040]

Why was it amazing in 2008? LED is not a new technology.

[@TorontoDrivingVideos]

Kerem Deniz Erkişi Led flashlights were not common in 2008, at that time LED replacement bulbs were just coming on the market to be available for the public. If you want to see proof of this you can search this in google " MagLite 2C/2D 4D 3W LED drop-in Technical Review". Now I can get a flashlight with more powerful SINGLE LED and the same or greater brightness than what is shown in this video.

[@TorontoDrivingVideos]

Kerem Deniz Erkişi Adding to my last reply, go to his website in the link in the description and see the answer for "What kind of leds did you use"

[@mibars]

It looks like most people don't realize that this thing was made 8 years ago, around the time where this kind of LEDs, 5mm with integrated lens, were the most common type of "bright" white LED. Sure it looks weak compared to any modern LED and you can get compact flashlight that would outpower this one, but that's the advance in technology - Think about computer You've got 8 years ago and that cheap new laptop can outpower good PC from that time. The advance in technology for LEDs is even more impressive, since 8 years ago expensive LED light bulb would barely work as a night light while now you can get a powerful floodlight for less...

[@nemesisnick66]

pretty sure the light on the back of my phone is brighter than that

[@MastorusGamingPlays]

nemesisnick66 "The light on the back of my phone" You mean the camera flash? How could you not know that?

dude, that dosent make any sense, he was talking about a star

[@count3122]

i get it, but he said output, wich is the power "exit" and input the power "entrance" like a laptop charging device, it has for example a 250volt input, and a 20 volt output (or something like that i dont remember)

[@sigmaoctantis_nz]

+Samara Weaving Yeah he forgot to add a reflector to the design so it's nowhere near as bright as it could have been.

[@juukyll]

Well your 10$ light can maybe make a brighter spot, but im pretty sure that you cant light up with it a whole football field that good :D imagine how bright the spot would be if there were a reflector.... sry bad english :/

[@Samara.Weaving]

[@freerunbg1]

[@fredl.c8029]

+Samara Weaving why the fuck you lying

[@q8pro945]

Damn u could fit brighter flashlights than that in your pocket these days, good to see how far we have came

[@Jammet]

Why don't you attach a keychain to your flashlight?

[@bmfilmnut]

Pretty neat! Just imagine how powerful it would be with the new generation of LEDs used in high lumen tactical flashlights, etc.! I'm not even sure if that could be done because I'm not an electronics guy but those LEDs can each produce light about as strong as a car headlight. I know because I just bought a small 950 lumen tactical flashlight that will light things up for hundreds of yards and it fits in the palm of my hand.

[@hikerboy16]

What tac flashlight did you get, how much did it cost and what's the battery life like?

[@SARU1184]

AdventureMan (formerly hikerboy16) look at the nitecore p12 is 65 bucks after tax and everything and get a 18650 battery 12 buck (recommend a sony vtc 4 or 5 30 amp) with a intellicharger 15 to 20 i have that setup omg the light is bright. it will sustain 950 lumens for 3 mins then kicks it down to high to save the light

[@Rick1885]

500 cree leds would be like the surface of the sun!

[@SARU1184]

+AdventureMan (formerly hikerboy16) i havent changed my bat for while on lowest 250 hours on high 1h 30nm

[@quinten4484]

7yrs later and i edc 1750lm innovation goes great

[@moeburn]

500 LEDs != 500x brighter than 1 LED. It's more like 5x brighter. It looks cool, but if you're looking for brightness, it's a waste of money to add more light sources, much more wallet+energy efficient to just find brighter light sources.

[@aptsys]

That's incorrect.

[@stevenx3m]

So many ignorant people commenting. Have you seen the date when this video was uploaded? 7 years ago. Back then there was no LEDs like today. The most powerful was around 3W (150lm). This guy has done some nice hobby project. Today many bicycle lights produce more light at quite small form factor. Not phone flashes yet :)

Today we can buy higher watt LEDs and make much brighter things than this, in smaller size. But, here we are seeing something that was created in 2008. At that time this 500 LED extreme flashlight was a real extreme, and first of its kind and this much power. :)) people who watched this video were like, " :O ... where is the schematic??? Can you do a tutorial ?? Are you going to sell it?, please let me buy it!! Most of them tried to copy, make their own version of the smaller flashlights. :)))

Edit: after watching the video I redact my comment

[@DJSKAR3]

I'm guessing an "on and off" switch was too mainstream?

[@samuelkeeble2580]

Now all we needs to do is weaponise it somehow

[@1FatHappyBirthday]

[@cup_and_cone]

Not very bright by today's standards... some single XM-L's are much brighter. Guess in 2008 it had a lot of cool factor, though.

[@Dougie085]

Well, he didn't have a reflector to focus the beam. If he had it probably would be A LOT brighter. Also he used standard LED's rather then some higher powered ones.

[@dragster100]

Doug Dale Reflector would just help to increase the throw of the beam (candela) but it won't help to increase the brightness (lumens).

"painting with light" as a professional photographer I and others (artists) would be interested in using this type of "light source" for long/multiple exposure photography. also submit this to "make magazine" .

[@w1p30ut3r]

If you are a professional photographer you must know that this lantern is too bright to paint something... You need a low aperture and low iso for long time and a candle...

[@davidluftig4276]

yes I do. and I have. I was thinking very big. I.e. At 100-500 yards or more for large structures. desert rock formations, entire bridges - it would be a special effect - who knows. In any case great build. PS I used to do lighting design and run follow spots.

[@davidluftig4276]

Also rule of squares -unfocused light falls off with the square of the distance. so yes, your light could only be used to paint at appropriate long range.

[@w1p30ut3r]

David Luftig For longer distances is better to use a simple green laser... Goes further and have a small center... A lantern have a bigger spot and cannot compete with a laser...

[@taylorgruye]

w1p30ut3r There are a lot of photo applications for this kind of light. What I'd be most excited about is indirect illumination. Heck, you could bounce this off a wall in a pitch black room and get so much ambient fill you could work portraits handheld. Landscapes for sure, I'd love to put this baby up on a boom in the forest and work with the trees. I used to carry whole bags of flash lights into caves and tunnels, but I eventually got sick of all the work. This light would be a lot of fun to try, and with those brightness settings, it looks like a very powerful and flexible tool.

My nokia 3310 got better flashlight

[@fleetwoodray]

All those bulbs together reminds me of the Light Brite set I had as a child.

[@tenebray]

It has definitely got the MOTHS good seal of approval.

[@SomeDudeOnline]

I was a little unimpressed until I saw the comparisons lol. Well Done

[@outlawshinemaker]

at the time this was cutting edge and friggin cool as hell

[@theperson185]

The tube looks like my old fleshlight that I sold on ebay... Glad to see it's in good use though!

[@meowingmono]

You guys don't get it. Several years ago, LEDs weren't that great back then which is why you had Multi LED Flashlights.

[@xarixliimatainen7084]

That was a big giant flashlight with 500leds !! I liked

[@BadPete999]

in 2016 you got the new super LED that are as powerful as 50 older tech. LEDS would be fun to see what you could do with the newer leds , they are so powerful that they can replace front car lights..

Guys, don't forget, that this video and the lamp was made 8 years ago. The technology is improving day by day (especially LED technology). Of course we have better lights, just as we have better computers, better mobile phones, etc...

[@AlejandroLZuvic]

To all people saying "it was 2008" like if it were recorded 200 years ago... LED improved over the last couple of years, yes, but that doesn't justify the fact that it's a bad design to begin with.
