[DimeRazorback]

Got a Surefire 10X Dominator on it's way

[SemperFi]

I am glad to try out some possible applications for my Fenix headband, arrived yesterday, flanked on either side with the PD30s on a cap.

Soon, the HP10 will arrive too and it will compliment further but I'll see how that option will offer when it arrives in under 10 days I was assured by the Vendor. I think the HP 10 (225 lumens) is soon unavailable (if it is not already as there is a newer model now with lesser Lumens...)

Will also work on the AR102 pressure switch for the TK12 R5.

With the new Cyborg baseball cap...outfitted with 3x PD 30s...and my guard dog with a the same or similar setup...we are like mobile lighthouses on the move...hahaaa!!!

Here's my TK40 on the side of my driving seat.

The Fenix AR102 Pressure switches for my TK12s

The Headband that is actually handy and ideal to have leaving yr hands free!!!

Here's my current cap that stays in the car when needed and outfitted with only one PD30.

It will now be converted into this>>>>

[Breathing Borla]

I just bought these two, haven't got them yet.

ITP A3 EOS LED 80 lumens

Terralux LightStar EXTREME 3W LED 220 lumens

hope they come soon

[ninemm]

Two Ti Killers arrived! Also picked up a Surefire M4 Devastator last night.

[jp2515]

A Surefire 7Z

[umc]

Not flashlights but I thought worthy of mention; last night I ordered a combo pack of Eneloop's from Costco and ordered two Malkoff M61's. Seeing how today is the first I'm done for April.

In review without looking I think I did some damage.

Surefire Saint Minimus
Surefire LX2
Maglite xl100
2 Quark 123
1 Quark Mini 123
1 Quark RGB
1 Quark Preon 2
2 Malkoff M61s
4 Fenix L01



I think that's it. Who in this thread who has posted spent the most money this month?

[Swedpat]

A few days ago I ordered a Surefire 6P Gun Metal Gray. It will later be armed with another Malkoff dropin.

[Blinding-Lights]

I bought two lights in April
-MD2 w/ a M61
-6PD w/ a M60LL

[Marvinie]

In the middle of April I was the beginning of becomming a flashaholic.

And becouse it's so cheap I ordered a Black Cat AAA just for fun.
But a few days ago I realised that I also want a real quality flashlight. So I ordered the iTP A3 EOS Upgrade.

(I also ordered 5 cheap $1,48 1AA lights at Ebay, but I think those don't count for a real flashlight.)

Now just wait for them to arive to my doorstep in The Netherlands...

[RSW]

A Quark Mini 123 will join my Fenix PD20+ and my ATP A2. I also have the ability to get for myself, using perk points, a Leatherman Serac 3. I can't decide if I want the Serac light or a Leatherman Skeletool. I may wait until Monday to decide and that will make it a "May purchase".

I'm new to the "addiction" and I'm slowly getting the lights I want, along with the knives I want as well.

Hoi Marvinie &

Would be interesting to know whereabouts U R "vertoefd" at.... who knows... it would be nice to get something organized where you can feel and throw out the power of your newly acquired EDCs (during the night times of course) while participating in "'s avonds wandel tochten" held in several interesting woody locations in our country....
Summer time is fast approaching and the best time to coincide burning your LED units!!!

Other countries are doing it... R U interested to be part of this initiative for Holland?

Here's a picture snapped just about midnight... and its not that dark by the beach given the amount of lights emitted along the boulevard by the shore.

[Jash]

Bought this month...Nitecore EX10 SP (2nd one now), SR3, Quark 2AA Tactical, Qmini AA, Fenix TK20.

[ZMZ67]

Purchased a few lights I have wanted in my collection for a while,two of them old tech. incans:

1. Pelican Sabrelight
2. Princeton Tec, Tec 40(yellow)
3. Icon Rogue 2(green)
4. Icon Modus 1

Also purchased two TerraLUX TLE-6EXB(Rebel) drop-ins to try out in a couple of lights.I have 3 other lights on backorder but I may end up cancelling that order as it is there is no word on when they will be available.Wanting a few items from Malkoff but so is everyone else these days! Definately a great time to be a flashoholic with so many interesting/innovative designs available!

[ElectronGuru]

May is now open!

[post tenebras]

In the last week of April, I received my ArcMania Extreme Micro AA (XP-G S2 version).

I seriously think this light will tide me over for the rest of the year. I didn't plan for it to be my EDC, but there's now no other light I'd rather have with me. It blows away all but one of my single-cell CR123 lights; I almost can't believe the power from this tiny light running on a measley AA duraloop.

Like you did, I bought the Icon Rogue too (bourgundy black) and in just over a day or two to three I expect the Icon Bombshell to arrive... this I ordered for my wife. We are replacing our Jabra BT 530.

[bobjane]

ITP EOS A3 single stage for the keychain.

Arc6 from B/S/T. Really looking forward to this one.
Been lusting after one of these for a while but didn't want to deal with Arc's current issues.

[Chauncey Gardner]

Ordered the Ti Iris from DGD, and a Lunasol 20 bought in the B/S/T...
A cool AU$1000 worth of lights this mth... Think I'll pull the horns in a little now

Both drool worthy.
The Iris is one of the best looking lights ever made & a classic Lunasol to boot.

Congratulations, exceptional pair!

[CampingMaster]

I ordered on april the 29th from 4Sevens :

Quark 123² R5 edition cool white
Quark MiNi 123
Quark prism kit
4Sevens' Lithium CR123A (pack of ten)

I am very impressed by the design of the integrated clip, I will be able to use my Quark 123² on a baseball hat as an headlamp to free my hands because I will be able to change the direction of the clip.

Hope to receive soon my new EDC that will replace my Fenix PD30 R4 - the emitter did for no reason at all - I am waiting for a replacement from 4Sevens.

Sorry for my english my mother's tongue is french.

P :-)

[sniper]

I just bought a Fenix E11 to replace me wife's Inova X1 that she has carried in her purse for years. I decided she needs a brighter light for parking garages, late night parking lots, etc. I'll get hers...but what'll I do with 4 of 'em?

[tam17]

Are you sure you've bought your Fenix E11 in April 2010?

Cheers,

Tam

[tandem]

I had no idea at the start of this month that April would be Malkoff Month for me:

Malkoff M61NLL and M61NLLL from the fine folks at Oveready.

Malkoff M61 Nichia 219 along with a MD2 + high-low bezel ring, and a MD3 body and MD2 head to complete it, from Illumination Supply.

[Labrador72]

Klarus XT2C + Fenix headband

[cstcyr]

Just got in a Solarforce L2 w/ a XM-L dropin so I can start playing with other P60 dropins and lego parts. This seems like the perfect gateway drug.

To complete my own post ( # 174 ) here is a picture how I am using my QP2L-X (Quark X 123²) and I do the samething with my QPL (Quark 123 XP-G R5). No need to buy a headlamp. I always have at hand in my car a baseball cap for that purpose.

Because the weight of the QP2L-X is only 1.8oz (51g) this can be done easily. I do it also with my Quark Turbo X but at 4.7oz (133g) you can do it in an emergency situation because it is a lot heavier.
