Flashlight Enthusiast
Not long ago, I was speaking with a man who does house inspections for a living. Curiously, I asked him what flashlight does he use? His response was... "ah usually whatever the home owner has, and the batteries are usually half dead."
When I suggested that he could get a good LED light with an 18650 rechargeable cell, and charger that he could top it off while in his car for about $40; his response was some thing along the lines of... " ! FORTY DOLLARS ? !!!
I guess we are still the outliers.
It amazes me that tradesmen will spend thousands of dollars on high end power tools, then hundreds more for fancy tool boxes, but when they need a flashlight, they have a $5 budget cap.
Or maybe I'm just an outlier.
