What is Han Solos detonator in The Force Awakens.?

[JJ Griffin]

The greebles in his breast pockets are NOT the same as the detonator, despite their passing similarity.

Any ideas what they are Mr Griffin, I'm at a loss. Maybe a larger version of the pocket greeblies ?

 

[JJ Griffin]

I have no idea what they used as the base for the detonator. They may have just custom machined it, honestly. I'll ask my contact once he returns from Croatia.

View attachment 583250View attachment 583251 it looks like the pockets on the jacket definitely contain the detonators, this should give an excellent scale for them.

I saw this too in a recent look at this picture. That would probably make each one 4 inches?

I made mine 3 3/8". They stick out of the leather jacket pouches just about 3/4". I'll post a picture next week of them in the jacket.

I wish that little flash was it, I bought one years ago to build a Droid caller out of and it's been sitting in the box since. The base is too thich, also. I think parts from the leg flares were used to make the detonator.

leg flares ?
I thought they might be something like this e cig battery

Heres a bad pic and I'm not sure how accurate. but if they didn't machine these (or the detonator) out of one piece I think they used parts of them for the flares, detonator and possibly Solo's Jacket. I have the e-cig batteries for the Solo jacket I ordered but I think I am going to try and make some on a lathe from aluminum. I just have to figure out how to use one first (a lathe)

IMO, the greebles in Han's jacket form the top/inset portion of the X-wing pilot leg flares. I don't believe the detonator is related them at all other than being a metal cylinder, obviously. Just my two cents.
