This came in with the three flashing
key-ring toys we looked at earlier this morning, whether someone was starting a
nascent key-ring / mini-torch collection, or not I don't know as Dave
pointed out a while ago, the ladies probably save this stuff out t'back until
they have enough for a bagful to go out-front or 'shop-side' . . . retail-side?
They'll have their own volunteer-ladies jargon, I'm sure!
Spidertorch! Similarities with the other
lot include LED fitted as a light source, a flush, sliding switch and key-ring function,
albeit as a key-chain not the proper rings of the others.
Differences include shape - obviously,
design aspects of the sliding switch and the fact that it's screwed-together
not sealed . . . oh, I'm just waffling now, there's little to add to the
photographs and I just want to get to the last shot, because when I put it down
on the bed I noticed . . .
. . . it was a coloured light? A
bi-coloured red / blue light to boot, and while they seemed to be side-by side
you can't see anything by looking down the lens, whether while it's
witched-off, or switched-on which just blinds you temporarily!
In the end I did manage to see it by
shining another pen-torch through the thin casing, it was possible to see the
little artwork and even get a fuzzy picture of it . . .
. . . but pointing it into the dark recess
of the chimney-breast revealed . . .
..."Agonised Arachnids! Batman - it's the Spidey-signal!"
It is of course the same image as is
presented on the side of the torch, although, why it's the shape it is, is anyone's
guess, a sort of three-fingered knuckle-duster effect?
"This Spider light is dirty Soldier!"
The rather fuzzy look down the barrel
reveals a little transparency set above the LED which produces the
'Spidey-signal' when it's switched-on, without a near target-surface and near
dark conditions, it just acts like a slightly weak pen-torch.
Marvel though - bunch of twerps . . . is 'twerps' acceptable or is it unprofessional? TJF'll know, he knows everything; he has a little black book with his legend in!
