Bending Light

Check out this little Pelican flashlight with 'bend light' attachment. Diffuses that flashlight 'focus dot'. Great little inspection tool.

Well that's pretty spiffy.... do they come with the "light bender" attachment? Here's a couple of links I've found for 'em but no mention of the attachment, which (for me) would be the biggest reason to have one....

This one came with it. It was gift years ago. I've had in a drawer. I broke my homemade inspection light yesterday and put this into use. Unfortunately, I don't have the source handy. Sorry.

Browning used to market those flashlights with the right angle tip as barrel or chamber inspection lights. I had one and managed to break the flashlight, which although non sparking and water resistant, is none too robust. Here are some alternatives:

I have my adapter stuck on a little LED flashlight, though it's been a while since I had to inspect a barrel or chamber.
