Using the instructions I found on the Forum, I created my own version of the Power Battery. I am new to the forum and this is the first project I have done, other than the pep helmets that I am currently working on. For a light source I used a 9-LED flashlight head and rewired the power pack. I still need to do a little prep work and then I will paint it.
 
Looking good! I can't wait to see it painted up. I have built several of these over the past few years myself.
 
That's looking excellent. I'm a huge fan of the Silver Age Green Lantern, so I'm excited to see how this turns out. :thumbsup
 
Thanks for the kind words. With Christmas coming, I have about five projects all going at once, but hope to get back to this one and complete it as soon as possible...
 
You've inspired me to try and attempt to make an orange one.

looks amazing, looking forward to seeing this painted and finished
 
Just a quick update on my progress. I have primed the lantern and need to touch up a couple of spots, re-prime those and then shoot the final green...

That looks great! Did you say there's a tutorial for this here?

Thanks for the compliment. As for the "tutorial" I did not find a specific one here and perhaps I should have worded it more like: using information and techniques explained here, combined with other internet postings on the subject, I used that information combined with a few ideas/improvements of my own, to create my project. Sorry for any confusion I may have created... I am in the process of applying the green paint now so it's still in progress, but I'm getting there...
 
Well, I finished the battery today and have included the finished photos. My husband is a huge Green Lantern fan and this is for him for Christmas. He also likes the Green Lantern logo, so I included it on the top in a three dimensional rendering. I think if I made another lantern, I would use a less powerful light source, but the same set-up as far as the source and wiring. All in all, I am pleased with the outcome...
 
Umm... COOLEST WIFE EVER?

That really looks great. Be proud of that. Hell, be proud that you are that cool of a wife to think of something that close to your hubbys heart!

If I had a wife that built me a lightsaber, or simmilar thing I loved from childhood etc. I think I would be WAY more touched than any expensive gift she could buy.

You kick serious butt BatGirl! (y)thumbsup 2 thumbs way up on this! :)

(don't think less of him if he gets teary-eyed. I know I would!)

i second that! that is a very cool gift especially coming from a "custom-build-gifted" wife! great work! :):thumbsup
 
Great build. I'm thinking I need to build one of these and put it on my desk at work. I recently had a job interview where I was asked what super hero I would be and why. I picked the Green Lantern because I thought he was super cool like I am. Needless to say, I didn't get the job, but I have a funny story. One of these on my desk at work would top it off!
