Intro: Makeshift Lamp

Genius phone hack that will blow your mind.

I'll introduce how to create this nice phone lamp to use anywhere!

It's very easy and adds a nice effect to surroundings.

STEP 1: You Will Need:

A phone with a flashlight option

A water bottle of your choice with the water

Tip: Remove label wrap off water bottle

STEP 2: To Start

you will need to activate your flashlight on your phone

then you will need to turn your phone, screen face down

STEP 3: Carefully

and stack the water bottle on top of the light and you instantly have a lamp

The water bends the light and the beams shoot in all directions, giving your surroundings a better exposure.

Works with all types of water bottles.

I use this trick when camping. It brings life into my tent when it's pitch black outside. Using an actual lamp/lantern might be better, but the versatility provided from these materials reserve my lantern to only be used in emergencies only. Hope you guys try out this cool hack! ~~

I'm confused can you give me more information on how to do this project?

You basically turn on the flashlight option on your phone, and the light will come from the flash from the camera area. You just turn the phone over when the light has been activated and place a full water bottle on top so the light can illuminate in all directions.
