I showed your channel to a mechanical engineer friend of mine and his first words were, "this man is a genius." "He not only thinks of incredible things to do but he carries them out." I'm spreading the word Felix. Respect from Florida USA and Beyond

[@FelixImmler]

Thank you so much dear Richard!!! Your words makes me happy!!

Victorinox should have hired this great man long ago.

[@FelixImmler]

Thanks lot for this wonderful compliment!

[@joe18750]

Felix, I've watched several of your videos. There seems to be a common thread between them. Whenever you learn something from someone else, you cite them, acknowledge the idea and the name of the person you've learned from. I find this so admirable. This is the behavior of an honorable man. And I think people should recognize this about you. Thank you for setting a good example.

[@Swimdeep]

Another great thing about a Felix Immler video: The ingenuity of his ideas and add-ons can be applied to other applications such as adding this LED setup to almost anything.

[@FelixImmler]

This is a Great idea. Thanks a lot!

👍🥸 I made those flashlights from Soviet Union batteries in 80-s, but than I was using the "native" knives, but since I was 8, I don't remember myself without no knife in my pocket! See you, Felix! Have a great weekend, thank you for doing my day now! 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍🇨🇭

Ahhhh, if you do both the toothpick and rear opening for the flashlight, regardless of which "side" tools you use (big knife or small knife side), you will always have an in-line light for close up work or for working inside something (like a computer). 👍

Juste une info supplémentaire. La lumière rouge permet aux yeux de ne pas être ébloui la nuit et vos yeux garderons la capacité a voir dans le noir. La lumière blanche ébloui et il faut quelques minutes pour que les yeux se réadaptent a voir dans le noir. Super video en tout cas merci!👍

[@matthewellisor5835]

What a great idea! Thank you for sharing. I often make such little lights for the children to play with so that I'm not as bothered when they get lost. I usually carry at least two lights with me other than my phone (and it's saved my hide more than once) but I'll probably order a new set of scales just for the fun of building it. One thing I've found with making them as "keyring lights" is that it matters a great deal what electrical tape you use, my preference is 3M Super 33+ and at 5-10× the cost it's still worth it. I can also imagine that with an angled slider and a slot cut into the scale it could be switched-on but that would significant increase the risk of it being drained in your pockets.

[@xyrius]

What an awesome idea! With a rubber band you don't have to push the scale, so I think it could be a kind of an "on" switch. The disadvantage of the rubber band around a Swiss Army Knife is that it's make time consuming to open the tools. So I'm still thinking about a micro on/off switch. As soon as I'll find the solution I'll let you know!

[@williammaurer9450]

Very Cool Felix, excellent idea, I love it. Bravo!!!

[@FelixImmler]

Thanks a lot William!

[@vanq86]

Awesome idea! If you have an old TV or similar remote that's not working anymore, you could cut out the rubber dome membrane from one of the buttons and place it directly on the battery with the LED contact poked through the side of the dome. I tried to fix an old Roku remote a few weeks ago, and seeing it this video now I can understand how ingenious the rubber dome membrane is in cheap remotes.
