So I bought a 3AA cell mini mag a few years back and used it for my late night fishing trips. I thought it was pretty bright but i was never really introduced to a good quality torch before. One day my friend pulls out a fenix L2D and it quickly put my mini mag to shame. So I was walking around a FRY's electronic and saw a LED lenser P7 and went home and read a bunch of reviews about this torch and decided to buy it :twothumbs. I carried that thing around everywhere. The only problem i had with it was that it was a little too fat. But we were . My family and friends would always laugh at me and ask my why i carried that thing everywhere.
One day we were at a party and it was late at night and after we said grace we all started to eat... suddenly the power goes out and no one could see. A few people brought out their cell phones:thumbsdow and tried to illuminate the dinner table so we could at least get our food... So i reach down into my pocket and shined the light on the ceiling...:naughty: a few of the guests (friends and family) looked up and thought the lights came back on and started to clap... lol. So i after a few compliments and a envious father and uncle (who always go fishing) they were asking if they could have the torch... The lights came back on and a few of my uncles asked me where i got it, and how much i bought it for... After i told them the price, they just said "for a flashlight? that's too expensive..." They just don't now how to appreciated a good quality torch.
My second story takes place in an an elevator. I was with my cousins and a couple of strangers... and the elevator suddenly stops and the light goes out. The strangers (who were women) suddenly begin to panic and i bring out my P7 and i heard one of the women whisper out thank God. My cousins were all patting my back and were like "daaaaaang phillip saving the day with your flashlight" After the power came back on 10 minutes later one of the girls asked me "so do you like carry that thing around all day?" and i told her "i never leave home without it" haha
My third story was during a fishing trip with my family and we went out to the bay. We were on our boat and the sun began to go down. We were pretty far out and the sun was going down pretty fast. Suddenly we found ourselves with no more sunlight. We tried turning on our on board spot light but for some reason it wasn't turning on. By that time i added a few torches to my arsenal and pulled out my p7, p14, and my fenix LD20. My brother-in-law couldn't believe how bright and far throwing my p7 and p14 went out and he couldn't believe how bright a couple of small flashlights could be.

It saved the day many times before I found this place, now it (sadly) only sees occasional use due to the icy cold tint.
