I finally am able to candle dark welsummer eggs. On Fathers Day Granny's church gave every father a flashlite. When I picked her up after church they gave me one as well. I'm sure its an inexpensive light but it has 6 LEDs and uses 3 AAA batteries
I cut a 2" piece of 3/4" foam pipe insulation and inserted the flashlite.I brought the end of the flashlite to within 1/2" of the end of the foam. By pressing on the foam at the lite end the foam became slightly concave. It fits tightly against the egg completely ending any light escaping except thru the egg. I illuminated the dark eggs perfectly.
