Description
Alternate enclosure for Prospect3DLab's Matchstick flashllight.
I added a switch between the positive lead of the capacitor and the LED driver.
Switch is part number JS202011CQN

Note: The 5252F LED driver has a minimum operating input voltage of about .9v, so the capacitor must be charged to at least 0.9v before the driver will turn on. You can temporarily attach a 1.5v battery if you want to avoid the cranking necessary to achieve this initial minimum voltage.
With a 220uH inductor, you get about one and a half minutes of light from 50 full revolutions of the knob.
