Anyone want to sell their extra one?

 

[RafalFett]

I just hope that some of you (who bought the minilight) will do a lot of images and measurements so we can have more info regarding this found part.

Thanks in advance!

Well guys found this on ebay though someone might want the org part so here it is Ever Ready Mini Light Torch Pocket 6051 Working 1970s | eBay

I have one that I will be including on my new esb gauntlets due to be finished as soon as I mold that said part.

 

[RafalFett]

That's great! I hope someone will grab that one. But could someone (who bought a torch) post some better images and some measurements of the real stuff?

Thanks!

GAH! its only UK sales!! i messaged him anyway to see if he'd ship to the US. I REALLY want one of these! thanks for posting!

 

[Peregrinus]

That was impressive. In the last couple hours of the auction it shot from £1.99 to finish at £26.00... not including shipping. Was that one of you folks who got it, or some avid torch collector? i.e., can we expect that to be a typical cost to source this item, or d'you think that was an outlier?

Another clear shot of it on the right gaunt.

Well, I will tell you this, it is coming to the US, and you will be able to buy a copy.

Intriguing... any idea on a timeline, asok? I have a set of gaunts I'm working on right now, and at the very least I'd like to have the actual switch from this pocket light.

I was at work when the auction ended..i had a snipe set up, but it apparently wasnt enough :/ Lost by 2 pounds...One day i will get one...*sigh*

No clue yet. It will just depend on when it gets to me.

Ok guys I've got the everyday light will get some pics of it and also have the switch part moulded next week.

Congrats for the purchase! Can't wait to see the images! Could you do some measurements too, to confirm my values from post #14 and #19? Thanks!

 

[redkraytdragon]

Can't wait to see it!!

 

[boba trooper]

Ok guys here are pics of this everready mini light as a whole and taken apart abit ready for me to mold the button, the measurements on post 14 by ral are pretty much on the button, there perfect so you can go off them or some of the ones Ive taken, anyhow here they are if anyone needs anymore let me know.

Cheers

Thanks so much for the images and the measurements! My measurements were based on the image provided from the Ever Ready Catalog and the overall length might also include the light bulb:



I will correct those measurements when I get home.

Here is the image with the Ever Ready Minilight's measurements:



A huge thanks (again) to boba trooper!

 

[asok]

That is great! Once I get mine in the next week, I will have copies for anybody in the US.
