About: I love to invent and create new things in a "steampunk styled way" working with brass, copper, vulcanized-fibre, brass gears and (ply)- wood. On one side I am fascinated in neon lights and small ele…
Hello everybody
In one of my former instructables I explained the way to work with High Voltage by using a flash module of an disposal camera.
Now I want to present you an project which followed this. All the photos had been taken and the different components had been put togtether. Then a new idea came in my mind. I tried to put the three components: an CFL-Tube, an modified electronic from an disposal camera, and the two AA batteries for using 3,0 Volts toghter in one big PET -Preform Tube to create an Emergency Light.
So Look at my "Emergency Light Torch":
It creates enaugh light to find your way out if it is dark inside a house or if your car is broken down on outside a city or village or so. Even when you sleep in a tent while your are doing camping you can use it very well. I only changed the switch and all other parts fit closed together.
To show the way how it works I decided to give you a glance without the steampunk wrapping with a copper tube and some brass elements. This outfit will follow later;-)))

Step 1: The Circuit
You probably remember this picture fom my other instructable:
High-voltage-power-supply-for-Nixies-CFL-Neon-Glow lamps....
In this emergency torch I used all of these parts you see on the picture except the switch.

Step 2: Some Details of the Construction
Now you can see the details inside the tube.

Thanks for following and I hope such a light will once help you to enlight your way in a dark situation
