Default Re: Old torches - anyone here collect them?

Ian, thanks for your comments. Work on the torch is proceeding. I have given it a nice leather jacket. I have a 4.5v Ever Ready (post 33) that has some similarities. That had a Cree LED bulb fitted, and is a very useful torch. My policy is not to change the torch (although think some covering was justified) and to give it a life. I love these torches because they have a very comfortable feel in the hand, weight, size and shape. But I don't think I will get a 1.5v Cree, so your idea is interesting. I wonder if there are bright, possibly warm white, 1.5v LED's made?
