Sensational trick to insert a LED on a Swiss Army Knife ; switchable, burns over 100 h, less then 1$ 

I showed your channel to a mechanical engineer friend of mine and his first words were, "this man is a genius." "He not only thinks of incredible things to do but he carries them out." I'm spreading the word Felix. Respect from Florida USA and Beyond

Victorinox should have hired this great man long ago.

Felix, I've watched several of your videos. There seems to be a common thread between them. Whenever you learn something from someone else, you cite them, acknowledge the idea and the name of the person you've learned from. I find this so admirable. This is the behavior of an honorable man. And I think people should recognize this about you. Thank you for setting a good example.

Another great thing about a Felix Immler video: The ingenuity of his ideas and add-ons can be applied to other applications such as adding this LED setup to almost anything.

i met a young felix fan in london the kid was maltese, he was already carving stuff from wood. it was great to see how the spirit is alive and kicking spurned by people like felix and this kid. bravo sir

👍🥸 I made those flashlights from Soviet Union batteries in 80-s, but than I was using the "native" knives, but since I was 8, I don't remember myself without no knife in my pocket! See you, Felix! Have a great weekend, thank you for doing my day now! 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍🇨🇭

This is one of your best mods ever, Felix! Much like a bright LED, BRILLIANT!!

Not only is your channel educational. It is very entertaining. Keep them coming brother.

I love how Felix seems to own every single product Victorinox makes

Absolutely superb modification...to be able to add a light source within a SAK would enhance the sole need to only ever have your SAK as your most essential EDC for everyday survival. Pure genius again from you Felix. Thank you sir 🙏

I didn't know a LED would work without a resister. Great idea Felix

Totally Illuminating...

Thank you for posting this in the SAKs Exclusively group - we really appreciate all you do for the SAK world my friend. Blessing and peace to you and your family my friend, Simon Jones 🇬🇧👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

I can’t believe he keeps coming up with still more ideas!

Es lässt mich jedes Mal mit offenem Mund und großen Augen Erstaunen, was Du aus dem Teil noch alles rauskitzelst...😮 Mega!! Dir und deinen Lieben ein frohes Osterfest!

That's a really cool application! What an amazing way to be able to add a 100-hour light to an already useful tool! Thanks so much my friend for this ingenious idea!

Victorinox needs to sell plus plus scales with this feature!

This guy has no end to his ideas and surprises! Another awesome video and cool DIY!!! 👍

Umm...this is literally genius!! Omg I love it!

Hidden button led light, amazing! Great trick as always, the soundtrack is also nice to listen to. Cheers!

A high tech Swiss Army knife times they are a changing. Lovely job Felix.

Felix, you are a Genius!!!!

Fantastic! Another great addition. Thanks for making Friday interesting and fun.

Felix, you are an absolute legend! Your ideas are all brilliant! Love you informative videos🇿🇦

Nice and simple approach. Thanks Felix.

This led & battery is also a good compact light for a small edc/survival tin 👍

thanks Felix for this video ! you're going to make victorinox jealous! it's crazy that they never thought of marketing a knife scale with a LED ! I would have liked to have had a test of the lighting of the LED in the dark to really realize its effectiveness!

Felix you've done it again ! You are the best !!!

Ahhhh, if you do both the toothpick and rear opening for the flashlight, regardless of which "side" tools you use (big knife or small knife side), you will always have an in-line light for close up work or for working inside something (like a computer). 👍

What a great idea! Thank you for sharing. I often make such little lights for the children to play with so that I'm not as bothered when they get lost. I usually carry at least two lights with me other than my phone (and it's saved my hide more than once) but I'll probably order a new set of scales just for the fun of building it. One thing I've found with making them as "keyring lights" is that it matters a great deal what electrical tape you use, my preference is 3M Super 33+ and at 5-10× the cost it's still worth it. I can also imagine that with an angled slider and a slot cut into the scale it could be switched-on but that would significant increase the risk of it being drained in your pockets.

as someone who spent last month 300 euros on 2 (samemodel) flashlights, i can say this is way better!

Really great work, simple, very few parts to fail and a very useful function. I'm deeply impressed!

Absolutely taking it to the next level Mr.Felix! It's always a pleasure seeing your smiling face! Your ideas are fan-frickin-tastic as always and that 100 hour light that can help you in a literal "Pinch" I love this one Mr.Felix! Thanks for sharing your tricks! Stay awesome, safe and blessed my friend and so we will see you next week! Cheers, Kimmers and Jerbs 🇨🇭🔥🔪🔥🇨🇦👍🏼

Again, another genius invention again. 😮

Great! Thank you. Greetings from the Czech Republic from Pilsen ☺

Great work my friend!

Nice job Felix

Great job Felix! I was just chatting with someone about other options for the hidden slot and couldn’t think of anything, now you’ve shown a solution.

Swiss ingenuity, no wonder your country is so rich 😊👍

Another genius clip! Hate to see the toothpick go. I can’t live without the toothpick or tweezers! Love them.

Thank you Felix for an excellent video! I've been carrying a small button-led on the key-chain rf my 91 mm. Compact, but this is a much more elegant solution. Can't wait to start modding!

Great mod and EXCELLENT music 👍😆

I like the way you think! Thank you for being so pleasant & putting a smile on my face with something I plan on doing soon. Keep the videos coming 😊

👏Апплодирую стоя! Великолепно! Спасибо, Феликс, за идею! Сделаю себе такой же апгрейд. Всегда рад вас видеть!

Me encanta cuando este tío dice "jhelou yutú"..eres el mejor!!! Salud.

Buddy says he doesn't get the ohms and whatnot. But he engineered a light from parts and bucket of elbow grease. As an Electrician and electronics tech, I'll say you're gonna be just fine without that knowledge, my impressive friend!!! Thank you for the incredible idea! You're videos are very enjoyable and you clearly love Swiss army knives as much as we do. Thank you, Felix Bench Engineering God!

Great video, Felix! You are great, brother!

Felix, fantastisch! One of my favorite modifications you've done.

Great mod! Following your how-to video I was able to add an LED lite to my Compact! Thank you Felix

There is a before and after in the modification of vicorinox since you appeared. Best to you!

Another AWESOME MOD by the GOAT of SAK!!!!

Excellent, outstanding.

WOW this is going to be very handy when I want a quick light, and I have a Hunter as it's so useful as it can be squirreled away into my op's jacket pocket. Many thanks Felix, and happy Easter! Much love in friendship, Wendi 🌻

Hallo Felix, der Trick mit der LED ist mehr als genial! Frohe Ostern und LG Micha

Kudos again! God bless you and your family. Cheers from New Orleans

Ach Felix, du bist und bleibst mein Taschen- äh Sackmesser-Gott! Wo du nur immer deine Ideen herholst… Frohe Ostern!

Felix, I don't think it is mentioned enough, but we very much appreciate that you make these videos in English. Danke.

Another great invention from Felix.

Your passion for your craft is impressive and fun to watch. Tha k you Felix from California, USA.

Excellent Work !!

One of your best Mr.Felix! You sir are a blessing!

gewaltig einfach… gewaltig praktisch. der erfinder felix 🍀 zum glück giebt es dich🥰

Sei un grande 🧠 ! Greetings from Italy 💪🔝

Awesome idea! If you have an old TV or similar remote that's not working anymore, you could cut out the rubber dome membrane from one of the buttons and place it directly on the battery with the LED contact poked through the side of the dome. I tried to fix an old Roku remote a few weeks ago, and seeing it this video now I can understand how ingenious the rubber dome membrane is in cheap remotes.

Felix, you're the man! Thanks for showing me how to put a flashlight in my Victorinox .I 'll be starting the projects very soon.

Felix, you are such a creative genius!

Love your videos Felix, always informative and you are always laughing. 😀👍

Watch every video you make I just cannot get enough thank you so much for wonderful videos keep it up

Kudos just like the rest of them thank you for sharing you're an absolute wizard

Another home-run Felix. Things like this make me wonder what the engineers at Victorinox are doing. This mod would cost pennies (or centimes) to add to the manufacturing process. Same as angled tweezers in the “secret” slot on plus scales. Such great tools, but their innovation is lacking.

What an awesome idea! With a rubber band you don't have to push the scale, so I think it could be a kind of an "on" switch. The disadvantage of the rubber band around a Swiss Army Knife is that it's make time consuming to open the tools. So I'm still thinking about a micro on/off switch. As soon as I'll find the solution I'll let you know!

Bin begeistert von deinem LED Umbau. Einfach genial :)

Fantastic job Felix 👏

This is great Felix!

That is such a cool idea...! Thanks again!

Felix; you keep coming up with great mods. Good on ya.

Este es uno de los mejores trucos que has hecho, bravo Félix, 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

very nice work for sure, I wonder if there was a possibility to have a door on the side of the scale so we could replace the battery without having to remove the scales.🇨🇭🇬🇷🔦

Seu canal nunca decepciona. Parabéns

goodmorning, I will thamk you for all the great tips how to use the swiss knife! dank je wel! kind regards from The netherlands ( Die Niederlanden)

So bright and so cool, Felix!

This is amazing. I can't wait to try it out. Thanks!

🤠👍 As always: Fascinating! The Immler makes it all!

Klasse und elegant! Der Felix halt!

What a great idea! Thank you, Felix!!

Interesting and impressive. WOW!

Awesome idea, Felix! Thanks for sharing it 🙏

Very Cool Felix, excellent idea, I love it. Bravo!!!

Ingenious and good music 👍

Mensch Felix, wo nimmst Du nur diese ganzen Ideen her? Neben dir komme ich mir so unglaublich beschränkt vor. 😉

O that's great! Although the simplicity of the switch is to be admired,,,, at risk of over complicating a brilliant idea, it could be enhanced with it repeating mode, which could have some life saving features on a dark mountain incident,,, maybe,, anyway loving your creative mod

Genius video, great work!

I can't wait for your next video.

Wow you’re amazing, absolutely you are a sak genius sir feix 🎉

Brilliant idea 👍

Outstanding. Great idea Felix. Thanks for sharing.

Juste une info supplémentaire. La lumière rouge permet aux yeux de ne pas être ébloui la nuit et vos yeux garderons la capacité a voir dans le noir. La lumière blanche ébloui et il faut quelques minutes pour que les yeux se réadaptent a voir dans le noir. Super video en tout cas merci!👍

Food for thought. I have 3D printer and printed my own plus scale. One could even create scale just for this purpose. If/when I get some spare time I might try it.

Like always a good video of you. Gruss vom Bodensee😎.

Great Tipp... Thank you very much. I try this with my Evo S17... Drück die Daumen😂😂😂
