Ok experts, please tell me , what can I use these for? I am retired and disabled, and a tinkerer into building models, working on electronics, fish aquariums, rebuilding my 57 Bel Air, and collecting vintage ship board clocks (Brass, Bakelite, etc.)...

Hi from New Zealand and the question should really be , not what can I do with them but do I really need them for the type of Dremel work I am already doing. I'm a typical Gemini and have loads of fun trying many many craft styles. Best use for these is for glass and bone carving/polishing etc. They would probably be useful for smoothing out any chips in your bakelite projects. I recently drilled some 5mm diam holes in laminated glass and with the odd squirt of water to cool burr and flush away the ground glass they did a mighty good job with little sign of wear even after some 20 holes. My main use is for detailing seaglass trinkets. Good luck in retirement. Barry p.s. I'm not an expert!!!

Good questions, but I have no idea. You should contact the company who makes these.

I would think they would be fine....check to see if they are still pliable. If they are hard and brittle I wouldn't use them...

They work pretty good and probably fine for something like that. You would need a few of them though. I might suggest the high intensity bullet led lights which i put on my boat instead. A bit pricier, but you could put one in the bottom and it would do the trick.

I was wondering what the deal was with these. They have been sitting in my cupboard forever because I didn't know what to do with them. :(

You can use them, but you will need to do some fabrication such as wires and brackets. Thanks.

What do you want? A zoom electric screen projector? Or do you want to identify the worth of an old slide. That is what I use it for. If it is junk. Trash. If it is worthy, digitize it.

I wouldn't know of a reason why not. Mine have all worked well, lots from the 60's.

They are specifically designed for electronics to insulate wires. They can be used for other things depending on your imagination. They shrink to about half their original diameter.

Sorry I can't help you out with this question. I purchased these as a gift and do not know what they are being used for at this time.

I honestly don't know. I bought them as a birthday gift for a friend who has an aquarium, but she is just using them as decorations around that area. Mostly as little knick-knacks on the aquarium's supply shelf.

You can use them but they won't last very long, it's best to use deep cycle batteries that can be discharged many times, I personally use 6 volt batteries in series to get 12 volts. The more you have the better.

Hi, the answer is yes! That is what they are made for! I have bought 4 of them and love them!

I think the batteries would last a while with that type of use. I also think you will be please with the purchase. I used mine to build some shelves from raw wood. I went through 1 set of batteries until my husband pre-drilled the rest of the wholes for me.

Sorry, I have no idea. All I've ever used them (several) for is to provide power for USB devices connected to Raspberry Pi's as the Pi's USB ports are rather anemic power-wise.

Yes, about that. I threw them in the bottom drawer of my tool box. Don't know what I'll use them for. They are very thin material.

No, these won't work for those. Show me a picture and I can probably help you find those.
