Coleman Lantern Joule Thief Hack

This is a Coleman Lantern I modified for a friend of mine. He wanted a JT circuit and also, a red filter so as not to mess up his night vision. I made it so the red filter can be easily removed if not desired. I am using a modified surplus flash circuit driving a modified Cree 60 watt equiv. led bulb. So now it runs much longer on a single battery rather than the eight D cells it came with. This light will be able to use “dead” batteries that others have thrown away.
