A windup torch using a brush-less motor and gears.

This touch works great and only uses capacitors not batteries for power I designed this as a concept so see if I could get a winding charge working nicely using a brush-less motor and it turned out really good. The winding mechanism is very robust so technically this should shine forever as long as you willing to keep winding.

Note: The torch head used in this build is recycled from an old torch I had laying around. If you plan to make this yourself you'll probably need to customize the top end for whatever you plan to use. A step file of the whole assembly is included so this can be modified to suit.
