Default Re: Old torches - anyone here collect them?

Just been and taken some photo's of my little collection! Also remembered I have some old metal cased cycle lamps too, don't know where they are currently though (I hope they didn't get left behind at the old house...).

The Rayovac torch uses one of the 6V springy terminal batteries, while the Ever ready (shown working) uses one of the 4.5V batteries with the 2 flat springy terminals on top. I've no idea what the little ever ready one uses, it was also missing it's bulb when I got it, but I recently bought a job lot of old 3.5V and 1.5V bulbs so could use either.

If anyone is interested in the 'home made' torches I could start a new thread on how I made them, so long as it's OK with the mods?

Regards,
Lloyd.
