    • @VDOless
      @VDOless 5 місяців тому

      @@oniplus4545 1. The polishing wax compound is nonconductive and would create a insulating barrier to prevent plating. And with my experience in electrolysis, any nonconductive layer on the surface of the metal would breakdown and flush out anyway.
      2. The plating is generally uneven as it tends to follow the irregularities and faults found on the surface. Also the bond is weak and needs reinforcement. This is with electroplating only tho. Hot dip plating overcomes this

    Great job on this! I was a kid in the 1960s and had one of these (not the same brand, but same structure/design, pretty much). As you say in your note, we've come so far. I thought it was a crappy, heavy flashlight then, and I still think so, but it sure does look spiffy LOL. I carry a tiny flashlight the size of a pen in my pants pocket now that can light up a low cloud.

      Keep in mind, though, that lanterns like this were being made well into the age of powerful small flashlights. Not only did the battery hold a charge longer than most batteries made well into the 2000s, the unusual size and shape of both the lantern and the battery meant that it didn’t walk off the jobsite very often.

      Why not both, I lilke reversible retrofits, on this lamp I would try a drop-in LED replacement for the bulb (they often seem to have E10 sockets and of course a warm white LED around 2700K) and lantern batteries are so large, you can 3D print an adapter and use a bunch of 18650 lithium ion cells, I've found one that uses 8 cells, so with 3000 mAh (and these are average ones, 18650s can have up to 3600 mAh) cells you have 8.4V and 12000 mAh (and rechargeable) while normal Lantern batteries have 6V and up to 9500 mAh.
      Or you could also put a Lithium Polymer battery pack with a BMS in maybe with a BMS that supports charging via USB (so you can flip up the top and connect it to your USB-PD phone/laptop charger) and an output voltage regulator/convertor to avoid burning the 6V bulb.

    Just a quick suggestion: when you are sanding down surfaces, I recommend using a sanding block. It will keep your surfaces all at one level as you go, whereas just using your hand can leave you chasing divets or waves. Plus your hand or thumb might start to hurt after a while with out a block. Great finished product, though 👌

    If you keep dipping the tip of a new soldering iron in a small tub of flux will keep the coating of the new tip in tact and will make beautiful solder joints.

Might as well if your going to the trouble of restoring it and making it look nice to have pro looking pretty solder joints.

    Wow, now THAT'S a very fancy flashlight! Definitely one of the more interesting, and unique flashlights you've restored on the channel, Odd! XD It's crazy just how far we've come in terms of flashlights. That one wire really didn't want come out, but you managed to get it loose. I'm sure the Ducktor is very pleased to see the return of his rusty mud bath as it's certainly been a while since we last saw it, and he gets a chance to relax, and clear out his pores. The EcoFlow Delta 2 sure is a fancy device! Hope it continues to help you in many of your future restorations to come! I liked that you were playing Find The Ball, only this time it was "Find The Polisher", and you used one of the flashlight components as one of the cups along with 2 actual cups, and, instead of revealing the polisher in the flashlight part (I forget what it's called), it was the Ducktor, meanwhile, said polisher was hidden in one of the cups, lol. Did he actually remove it into one of the cups so he could hide in the part while you weren't looking? That little rascal. And that's why we love the Ducktor!

    I have one quite similar, but i think older a bit (more brass). The front has a lens.

Design was so cool back then.

    When soldering a wire to a terminal, one should make sure the wire is mechanically secure (even just crimping the wire around the terminal) before soldering, so the joint does not rely on the solder alone.

    I wonder if there are any LED replacement bulbs with much higher light output. Love the restoration!

    Отличная работа. Кстати, Компания производитель и по сей день делает похожие фонари. Чуть чуть изменила название, но все там же в США, в штате Иллинойс и называется BIG BEAM EMERGENCY LIGHTING

    I thought the Ducktor cup game was the best thing I'd ever seen on this channel. Then you bring out the battery.

    You should consider powder coating in the future. You don't need a large oven in the beginning as most of your projects here are small to medium sized items
