Surefire C2.

Because the other must-have is the Malkoff M61 drop-in.

Re: The Flashaholic's "Must Have" List

I must have and always do have with me...

Draco (chrome) keychain edc always there for emergency

when I went mountain climbing and weight was the premium concern for everything I took only 2 lights

the Zebra light sc30 (neutral white)
and ITP A3 eos 3 stage with a 3.7V 10440 as a super lightweight back up

for asthetic value there are many lights I like and want ...but I own
a Lummi Raw in Damascus,Lummi N/S Raw is pretty nice too with 5 trit slots and 2 speed 20/200 or 100/200 lumen

and JHanko's 3D Trit D10 custom is pure art in Titanium and tritium
I own his latest 21 Red trit version

a custom machined Mag 1D with SST-90 and 2 x 18650 running D Flex 8 stage up to 1450 lumens...it does everything except pop into your shirt pocket

another keeper is my rainbow killer... perfect neck carry light
too easy to throw on and use in a split second,thanks Fred :thumbsup:


finally and surprisingly deal extreme does the button lights with 22,000mcd ... 10 for $4.57 they are on anything I own that has a zip or tag, back packs hooks and nails all around the house and workshop
all my friends have been given one and even saved a mate in a flash flood
I think I have bought about 100 now ... they are so handy.

wish list...
when I get the $ together I will get a Haiku...that will be on the list aswell
Tri-V probably won't get this one but if I did it would have to be no.1

Photon Freedom. It's the light that is always in my pocket. There are lots of others, but the only light I feel lost and uncomfortable without is the Freedom. Same for its constant sidekick, the Swiss Army Executive.

HDS RA Clicky
Quark 123
Nitecore SR3
EagleTac T20C2 MKII
EagleTac M2XC4
Tiablo A10-G

I have a feeling the Maelstrom will be must have but who knows at this point.

I am suprised I don't have any Jetbeams or Fenix lights on my must have list but I guess I like my other lights better. Maybe a Jetbeam RRT-3 but I don't own one (yet).

Solarforce L2, bored 6P or any solid 18650 P60 host. Wish I would have jumped on this bandwagon a long time ago! Add a 1aa and headlamp and I'm not sure why I keep my other lights around!

good one, but I'm happy with my M30W

I'd say you need one high power incan, a good mid sized led light (18650/2xcr123s), a single cell EDC and a keychain light.

In those categories the following would be good:

1. Surefire M6 (cheap: Ultrafire W500 with WA1111)
2. Surefire U2, C2, LX2
3. HDS/RA (the Arc6 on the way should be good as well)
4. Ti preon I, Arc AAA etc.

-Mag Varapower
-SF A2
-6p bored w/ McClicky (good call on that one... So modular)
-photon freedom
-Microfire Pioneer (can't beat the focus)


Too many!!

I assume you were referring to the Ra Clicky. Please correct me if I assumed wrong.

Lummi Raw Ti/SS/NS
McGizmo Haiku
McGizmo Ti-PD [-S/-XR19]
Anything made by Arc

Re: The Flashaholic's "Must Have" List

Fenix TK20

Great light, especially running off AA's they can be found almost anywhere or robbed from other devices in an emergency.

Maratac AAA (any version) I think these are massively underrated lights. The ultra low low can run for 40 odd hours off a single aaa.

Lummi Raw. Future classic.

Fenix E01, can't believe no one has mentioned these yet!!! Legendary rite of passage flashlight, you ain't a flashaholic till you've got one of thes all beaten up on your keychain!! (And another one which you keep good, or is that just me? :nana

Yep clickie or HDS EDC with updated led (Seoul, xp-e/xp-g or K2 TFFC) I like the HDS since it is a bit smaller and uses a better clip

Re: The Flashaholic's "Must Have" List

- TK40

These three have just about any situation covered and are relatively affordable and reliable.
