Wow, I want one.... must have, need, etc...... ooo Toyz :-)
I've like falshlights since I was a kid.  My sister and I both get it 
from our father.  I used to try and build them.  Once I tried using the 
aluminum tube case from some kind of military flare.  It was kind of 
neat, but I had to hold the reflector in by hand :-)
