Mr. Garrison's Balls

After hearing my nephew was going to be Ash for Halloween my wheels started spinning and I set out to create something for his costume that would set him apart from the other trainers.

I created (what I believe to be) some pretty badass Pokeball flashlights.

After R&D I have two balls left over that I don’t want to see go to waste.

If anyone has a little one going as a trainer for halloween shoot me a PM and I’ll ship you one for free (assuming you are in the US. If not I’ll get a shipping quote and get back to you)

first come first serve

A little about my balls…

  1. They aren’t very big.

This is because they were designed to fit nicely in a 7yo hand. Below is a picture of my balls next to an adult size ball.

  1. If you give them a firm squeeze they light up really bright.

This is so the holder of my balls can navigate while trick or treating. Below is an image of how bright my balls get after a firm squeeze.

  1. They have a lanyard so you don’t drop them. Don’t worry if you do though. They are nearly indestructible.

I came for the title and stayed for the wholesome idea to help kiddos stay safe. Very cool!

Thanks for the kind words.

On the note of safety I forgot to mention if you squeeze it twice the light changes from solid to SOS.

@Mr.Garrison I imagine this was you while typing this thread?

However, this is a wonderful innovation and not to mention uber cool. I think your nephew will really enjoy it. Safety while looking awesome!

Thanks for sharing this, also making me realize how generically dirty my mind is.

Cheers!

The innuendos are much appreciated, gave me a good chuckle.

Awesome design though, I’m sure your nephew will love it! Good job uncle Garrison :+1:

Mr Garrison, I would like to put my hands on one of your balls…

But actually, I bought a snorlax costume for my daughter and I’m borrowing a red cosplay from a friend, so a poke ball would be a nice finishing touch. Hmu if you still have one!

Mr. Garrison, I can confirm that one of your balls was a costume hit. Perfect puzzle piece to finish the costume
