A detent living hinge can rotate freely, can flip open/close, and has detent mechanism for holding the connected components firmly in designated open/closed positions. The hinge's thin flexible strip adheres to the hinge component connectors and lets them rotate about the hinge axis. The hinge spring pulls the component connectors close together to their intended positions to keep the thin flexible strip from collapsing or getting overly stretched and twisted.
