It looks like a flashlight? If it isn’t, how much is a patient for a flashlight that doubles as a tamper?
Be careful with that. Looks like a heavy tamper
I've got an Upshall with a ridiculously-large bowl that it works quite well with.

My pocket flashlight these days is the one pictured below. It has a claimed 300 lumen brightness but I have no idea what that means. It is better in every way to the mini-mag Maglight version I carried in the 80s. These AAA pocket flashlights really do make carying a tamper unnecessary.

I’ve burnt all ten of my God given tamps too much
Yep, although I dont use it as a tamper, I dont leave home without it.
On high its too bright for inside use. I believe it claims 800 lumens on high.
As I get older, I need it more. Old eyes sometimes need help. Sometimes that little bit more light helps me read something.
One I whittled out of a piece of cedar and hit with some minwax floor wax.
