After tearing the torch apart further i have decided to leave the fundamentals of the torch alone - this being the dynamo pump action. Instead i will look at effective ways to convert this to a torch which is suitable for kids and works as a night light. I will make changes to the plastic casing around the bulbs, i will change the material of the bulb housing to diffuse the light better, and make a stand for the torch so it can stand upright on a bedside table allowing a small amount of light out. This is opposed to having a night light plugged in all night, this allows the child to interact with the object and teaches them about saving power.
