Small Light, known as the Shrink Ray in the English dub, is a lamp similar to a flashlight. Its opposite is the Big Light, which enlarges objects and people. Another tool that is used in a similar capacity is the Gulliver Tunnel, which causes a person to grow or shrink depending on which entrance he takes; however, its ratio of shrinking and enlarging is fixed.
Function
The Small Light's names come from how it has ability to shrink objects and people to minuscule sizes.
