I have several old tools from my dad and my grandpa. They're nothing of great monetary value, but they're irreplaceable. Good on you, Freddy, for keeping your Pop's memory alive. Gotta know where you came from to know where you're going.

Thank you!

I would recommend getting a glass lens insert. It really makes a difference

Very nice tribute to your Dad. 😊😇🤗 Didn't know about that Coke method... thanks ! 🤔😏🖒

Good job. One suggestion: you should lube the o-rings with silicone grease. Note, it must be grease, not liquid or spray kind. The grease keeps them soft and working. Works with car o-rings and rubber seals too. I inherited my granddads tools a week ago. He passed away already like 30 years ago but now as my grandmom also passed away his tools were given to me. Among the tools was a pristine looking black Mini Maglite. I ordered a 180 lumen led kit to upgrade it to todays standards.

One of the gifts I gave my dad for Christmas was a MagLight flashlight back in the mid-late 90's! He still has it too although he's retired now and doesn't use it as much. LOL

Try a little rubbing compound on that lens, the compound has afb adhesive that will cut thru the build up from years of use or tooth paste with baking soda which is your abrasive . Looks better and brighter though.

Yes do more 👍

@Anman619 3 года назад

Really cool video. I recently bought a big Maglite (also with corroded batteries) and I found you looking for a solution. I'll try the Coke.

@danc2014 3 года назад

The bulb contacts can fall out and are not easy to replace. Be careful once the holder is removed

@abysstone 4 года назад

I now how to remove the corroded battery thanks for sharing. I'll try it on my flashlights

Hello, I’ve heard of using white vinegar but never to use coke. How did you learn about it? Have you tried both? If so which was best and why? Thanks

@bernardszeto2064 Год назад

How do you remove the contact plastic piece that revealed how corroded it was?

@MrChubhub22 4 года назад

if cola can do that to battery acid imagine what it does to our body. anyways like the color of the light. good job

This is old I hope you're still replying to thos. How long should I soak the Maglight in Coke?

@PoorManMods Год назад

I honestly don't remember how long I let it sit, maybe a few hours?

@TheMorbidreality Год назад

@@PoorManMods I tried a day and it didn't work at all

@peterkin1010 3 года назад

Something I learned..soak a Maglite in Coca Cola if tge batteries are stuck in. Great tip.

Nice job, but that LED conversion kit is rubbish. 30 Lumens? The Terralux Ministar2 Extreme has been around for years and puts out 140+. Actually turns old mini mags into something good :-)

@@PoorManMods Thanks! I thought I say that since we both know how it feels to lose a parent and you restorying something of his. I had my dad's limited edition 06 zx636r for a while until it got stolen. Note: im 25 now.

@@PoorManMods That was really the only thing I have of my dad that truly meant something. I worked with my dad in IT so Ive got some of his old stuff but not much that really means much.
