Pics from the \'05 Flashlight Collectors Convention

We just got some pictures from the 2005 Convention on our site. It was in Los Angeles, CA, and was hosted by the "King of Flashlights", Mr. Bill Utley. There were some great exhibitors there this year, and "The Beast" and USL were all the talk... /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif

Check out the pics at The Flashlight Museum

It looks like next year's convention will be in Cleveland, OH. It will be hosted by Eveready Archivist, Bob Young.

FM,

CPF had a micro get-together (5 of us, I think) there on saturday. (I will be "goosing" PK for the rest of his life for being somewhat "Out-of-place" at the convention. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crackup.gif ) I didn;t really get to meet Bill, but bought his book and have had the pleasure of reading it! He is sort of local to me, and some day, I hope to meet him and see his collection, and hopefully, add a couple of truely early lights to mine!

IMO, flashlight luminosity is progressing geometrically! Keeping track of the roots of "Flashaholicism" is a noble endeavor!

I have a request, next time one of you go to a "get together/convention" can you please pick up a surefire sticker for me. It's kinda hard to get one where I am.

Thank you

And thanks for the pictures. I am already thinking about a "cane light" that'll put out 200 lumens !
