- This is a very beautiful Vintage dynamo lame Luzy made in Paris by Paul Garnier arownd 1920s.
Back then this lamp was hight tech.
This lantern cost me 8 euro at flea market, was very oxidazed and didn't turn very well.
I hope you like my new video!

Why didn't you install a battery, charger circuit and COB light to upgrade this device? I was totally expecting that.
Диодную лампу
Lampussy.
Because its a restoration video he isnt going to use it often and it kind of ruins the point in a way
Awesome
That early-1900-ths' tech looks so alien nowadays. The slip bearings that do not bind up, the clutches that do not wear... truly a work of art!
It's hard to imagine any thing that's rusty today as being new and shiny in the past. These videos really help to give a look at past technologies
I am 68 now, and when I was 6 I had one of these little lights and I loved it. My brother kept it. He and I would use it to go to the outhouse in the middle of the night. They made a good light. Thanks
I know many people (including myself) figure that an LED mod would be interesting, I think that keeping it original with the dim bulb and all is really worthwhile when it comes to a restoration. You can get cheap Chinese soulless LED flashlights for a few dollars, but those will be sitting in landfills long after this is still proudly on display.
Fantastic resto but a little advice from a watchmaker...way too much oil. Just a drop on the pivots and gears and that magnet wheel would spin much more freely and longer. The amount of oil you put in the works is creating lots more friction in that system. With this multi-geared system, less is more. I would disassemble, clean and oil much more sparingly.
I don't think anyone can change tysy, he does this every single video lmao
Good advice 👍
You can’t compare the oil needed for fine mechanical movements like watches with the oil needed for this. :) think about the torque needed.
Smarttt
@075302 Hmm, kinda like how engines need constant oil for the gears, if not they would wear out due to the torque and heat
I never thought that this kind of flashlight was created 100 years ago.
Old school tec keep old is so delightful to see redone an then keep original. Love theses videos.
I grew up on a ranch in New Mexico. It was very remote... the drive to school was 74 miles and the drive to a large city 130 miles. We repairs and refurbished everything because of the distance and lack of money. I appreciate what this man does
A little excessive on the oil, but awesome restoration on an awesome historic flashlight! Fascinating that they had dynamo powered handheld lights that early in the 20th century. Thanks for sharing that!
I never knew how much I needed a 1920s flashlight until I saw this
What a cool piece! I like the polished look you went for, I think it really worked out. Two things I want to mention - first is be *really* careful with coils and cleaning. While solvents won't cause rust, they can damage the very thin lacquer insulation on the wires and make a short. Also, in clockwork devices you pretty much never oil the teeth of gears. You only oil in the pivot holes, and you use much less oil. The idea is to reduce friction. Adding oil to the wheel teeth not only adds friction, it attracts grit which will eventually form a grinding paste and wear the teeth.
Tips: 1. Try to increase gearing ratio.
2. Too much power loss across the Bulb,you can try low power LED.
3. You can smoothen the response,i.e (increase light duration) using simple RLC circuits or using transistors (even higher efficiency)
The fact that it had the potential to work just as it was is remarkable. It's nearly a century old!
Most interesting restoration video you’ve had. Well done sir
I suggest you replacing the tungsten bulb with LED and capacitor, it will light the whole room, even at lower RPM
Wont be original ( 1920 Lantern Restoration ) not rennovation, btw nice tip
@@iTzKubus Got your point. 👍
A 'warm white' Cree LED, a bridge rectifier and a nice fat capacitor would make that baby SHINE!
My thoughts exactly. Plenty of room for the rectifier and a large capacitor there as well.
Should convert it to LED. More light with less pumping.
I see where you are going with this idea but it's not really that type of channel. Hes restoring these items basically back to how they came from the manufacturer.
@@Andy-gg9yo no need for battery. A simple capacitor would do. More power for less pumping.
Limerence lmao
Because it’s not going to be original and also that’s not what type of channel this is
I hope he sells/has sold it to a flashaholic. He would definitely modernise it to LED.
What a gorgeous little thing. Great job.
I’m always impressed you never lose any of the tiny pieces you drop so casually on the workbench!
It's amazing to see a item about 100 years old get some love
I wonder how bright you could feasibly make it using an led bulb rated the same wattage
I love how there's no music in these videos just straight up construction and restoration
I'm just thankful that he started with a genuinely old piece. No painted rust on plastic like so many other "restoration" projects. Thank you sir. Excellent work
Excellent restoration, but I really think you should consider rewinding the corroded coils...
1920: guy walks home with this thing at night
Neighbours: get the exorcist
Use LED bulb for more light and a capacitor for more light time
Шикардос! Только надо повэрбанк добавить! И вместо лампы накаливания, экономичный светодиод!
Es restauración,no actualización de la linterna
nice restoration. if i had any wishlist improvements for this piece, it would be to solder in a couple of small capacitors and wire them between the dynamo and the bulb contact to hold a limited charge and swap out the filament bulb for a single LED flashlight bulb.
Beautiful! Let's start making these things again!
I wonder what it would cost to make to the same quality now.
@@michaelremski8295 Given all the fine parts and intricate joining, quite a lot. But consumers recently have shown they are willing to pay for a product that is well-made and that will be a one time purchase.
pretty impressive the amount of machining that went into this in the 20s
When that torches insides last saw daylight, it was such a different world back then, amazing to see something that's lasted for so long..
Good restoration👍👏. But i think replacing the original bulb with a led bulb will give more light because of lower consumtion of electric power💡.
Imagine having that little flashlight in a horror movie/game and the monster is attracted to the sound so you either find your way out in complete darkness or use the light to find your way out but the monster is chasing you the whole time
Now replace that old bulb with a hing intensity LED and I'll be impressed. Just kidding. I was already impressed! Thumb up!
Would be cool to put a LED and a supercapacitor in there to make it practical again. (nondestructively of course)
Great to use this in camping or survival situations - batteries become useless very quickly
Very cool, I know it's a restoration but might have been nice to put an led in for better brightness and efficiency, glad it wasn't another Tonka toy as everyone seems to be doing atm, keep up the good work
Good thing you can still acquire the bulbs for these devices, that hasn't changed in ... 100 years it seems.
It's great if the lamp is changed and led
This flashlight belongs to horror games/movies so goddamn much... the perfect combination of stress-relief toy and, and stress indulcing dark places.
Would be cool to replace that with an LED.
I am thinking about the forearms of that era people ⚡️
That's pretty impressive for something that's nearly 100 years old.
Dude, put an LED in it.
yep, much brighter and easier to crank
He's RESTORING to how it was BEFORE.
Putting an LED changes it and therefore wasnt the product as made in the past.
You should tey a LED lamp just for fun and to see how much of a difference it makes, (polarity might be a concern though) and then switch back to the incandescent one.
Depending on voltage produced, he could use two LEDs or 1 capacitor.
Would you experiment and use an LED light just to see how bright it gets please?
This would be great for a horror game. Can't make noise but need to see
read my mind. would be fire af
Dad had one issued to him in WWII, the body was Bake-A-Lite, the crank was metal and the glass was an oblong shape that ran parallel with the body seam. The glass lens was very thick and domed. I had it for years and have not been able to find it since I moved to Danmark from Ohio. Glad I found your channel, you do amazing work!
If you put an LED in there, the efficiency will increase by 90%
I’ve never seen so many people be so criticizing of a freaking flashlight lmao. It’s a hundred years old people.
Thought this was a grenade and it's why I clicked. Not sure why i watched the whole thing.
I remember having one of these dynamo lanterns when I was a kid in Cuba. During the Special period we spent many hours without electricity, and this piece was a very useful thing to have.
Switch that lightbulb with a new led and it should light the whole room up!
cant believe a handcrank or handpress flashlight back then already existed
Should've done an upgrade with a high power LED and a few supercapacitors. Other nitpicks:
- the refractor and lens need polishing. Badly.
- should've used lithium grease rather than oil.
- didn't clean the stator of corrosion and old polymerized oil, which means you get ~20% less output.
Suiginryou Hitaiga wow
I can just say that
You know alot
super capacitors in a dynamo powered device? that makes no sense
@@hkhjg1734 it'll hold the charge and dissipate to the bulb? Less no. Of cranks required to keep it going... Correct me if I'm wrong
Glad you restored it as I imagine most of them wound up in a landfill decades ago.
Wow! I’ve never seen one of these things before. This new light source fascinates me.
change bulb to LED it will last longer
you should try to put in led then it will give more light
It may sound ike a sacrilege, but I sould change the bulb with a LED one.
And I’m curious if you can add a small lithium battery and basic electronics. This way it can be charged too.
I probably would have used lithium grease on that old metal parts. It's the best lubricant there's for metal, and the oil is to othin, so it'll probably fly off when spinning those parts fast.
In all honesty, looking at it from the thumbnail it looked like a fuzzy grenade
I know it would cause it to lose the functionality but i would love you to try it with a LED bulb as it requires less power I wonder would it gain functionality?
I am late to the vid but you did a fantastic job restoring this probably better than original!
It's amazing that the bulb still worked after so long.
I, like many others in the comments, would be interested in seeing an led 💡swapped in. If only for kicks😂. The obvious issue I can think of would be weather or not the bulb threads match up.
Open it back up and put in a 3.3V capacitor, largest that will fit. It will really let you store that charge longer. Consider an LED bulb as well.
My thought too, but you know the "keep it all original" crowd will lose their collective minds!
Beat me to it. . . lol
@@JohnSmith-ki2eq You can add the cap without altering the torch, f.e. if you solder it to the LED bulb
@@JohnSmith-ki2eq Well yeah because they already sell such flashlight with leds and capacitors.
@@JohnSmith-ki2eq The "keep it original" crowd are upset that the casting flash gets removed.
Awesome job this will last you another hundred years even though we won't be around to see it lol
TTR...there really are no words to express the beauty you bring to items that are tossed aside and rendered useless...my eyes and ears are delighted in your quiet diligence and painstaking attention to detail...thank you for sharing your gift with us😀👍
I clicked because I didn't know what the hell this thing was. Never knew anything like this even existed! Amazing job again Tysy, you're the man. I love this channel. For a few minutes I can watch a beautiful piece of garbage transformed into something better than it's former self and I'm not thinking of the BS of my day and even get a bit of a history lesson! Oh and by the way the sub to the other channel would be a given my friend!
Wonder how bright it could get with an LED bulb...
I would upgrade to an LED lamp with a storage capacitor and a 1N4001 diode. Then the lamp would stay lit for a bit and it would be much brighter. The 1N4001 would keep the charging current flowing in one direction across the capacitor. Just an idea.
You won't even need a lamp anymore because it shines so bright
Amazing that this thing is so old yet still works! Goes to show how much the quality of items has gone downhill. I had a hand crank flashlight in 2006-ish. The damn thing stopped working after a year 🙄
That's cuz crap that's made now are meant to break so you buy more...
that's the key to consumerism
Ever notice that your cell phone needs to be updated every 3 years?
a circuit with a diode and a small capacitor and a led
Yes!! I was thinking the exact same thing!!
Dear TysyTube: I have one observation. If the item has any information on it, like who was the manufacturer, country of origin, etc., please take a close up. Those are nice to see.
Beautiful work, as always. 😊
By far my favorite one so far.. Such a cute piece!
Man, I love those kinds of flashlights. They make such a cool sound and are super satisfying to squeeze! I used to have one that projected a ghost silhouette when you powered it up
Anyone else up at 3 am watching him restore things😂
Luke Hardy same
Lol almost it 12:20 here
Luke Hardy yes😂
yesss
its 4:29 am for me lol
These are always cool devices and the tech has been improved with LED lights now. I just watched the Chernobyl mini-series and it was horrifying to see that they were using lights with this level of illumination while working in waist-deep radiated water under the reactor.
Finally youtube reccomendations work on finding something cool!
Add a circuit with a capacitor and fix the efficiency of the generator
Chris Eaton that’s what I was thinking
Modifying it by using a capacitor and an LED will make it more effective.
This is a restoration if you didn't know
Very nice. Unlike the hand crank flashlights they sell these days. Yours looks like it could las a lifetime. Put LEDs in it and it will produce more brightness for less effort.
Thats..not the point of the video dude

Вторая жизнь! Старым вещам это и есть забота о природе, ресурсах и экологии!
This guy can fix my life.
Changing the bulb to a warm white LED and a condensor would make a huge step to modern combined with antique, but it is nice as it is!
Great job!
Thx for the vid!
:-D
Dont fix what isnt broken.
Originality is key, so if it works, keep it.
It's a pretty dynamo machine restoration , it seems it generates small photonic energy even the hand mechanical rotation is maximum , it's recommended to add a smal joule thief circuit in the output with a capacitor of high capacity ( Farad unit ) to store a large amount of electricity, good luck
Прекрасная работа,золотые руки!!!!
You could use an Led bulb.
Beautiful. Now do the right thing, and put a diode, supercapacitor and led in to it. And get bright light without working all the time.
That light's sound really scarily
It sounds like a cartoon ghost
You never had one of those flashlights when you were young?
@@Brinkaskfavor
There was a similar one made of plastic.
But it didn't sound like that. Just the sound of gears and generators spinning?
Some new coils and an LED/capacitor combo would go great
If he's selling or repairing, as an antique you'd want it to be as original as possible.
I really like classic things thanks for this beautiful video
thought it was a stone grenade
Put a capacitor in there with the light's wires for longer light time, and replace it with an led!
He probably would like to keep it this way for the sake of collecting, you can easily made a modern version with mdf or a 3d printer but yes, definitely
9:05 A beautiful hand lantern! I would say early 1920's, for it looks almost STEAMPUNK :-)
Lot of these things were coming out in the 80's and 90's but their handle and case were made of plastic, and they didn't last long before they broke!
Nice tear down and clean up. Awesome restoration of that rare light.
I Didnt't Know, They Had Something Like That In The 20's
Just a little tip in the future! You used WAY too much oil on the gears. Using too much oil will cause dirt and grime to get stuck in the teeth. Just a whiff is plenty enough! That being said, excellent restoration! :)
I thought this is grenade restoration by seeing thumbnail of video
Good men awesome work....
Jajajajajaja pensé lo mismo!
