Star Wars Lightsaber or 38-million-candle Maxablaster flashlight

At first look this could be a new Star Wars Lightsaber, but sadly that’s not true as it’s in fact the 38-million-candle Maxablaster flashlight…sunbeam in your hand.

The bulb in the Maxablaster flashlight is powered by a 54-battery pack, not sure why you would want that much power but the designer (Ralf Ottow) loves it. Currently it’s just a pet project of the Dutch engineer, so we will not see 38 million candle brightness reach consumers just yet.
