Flashlights for flashing at ghost?

Re: light to banish ghost in dark wood

This will do the job.
But you know what..... you'll have to wait a 'little while' since it's not yet out.

Re: light to banish ghost in dark wood

The big problem I have experienced in the woods at night is that the light diminishes extra fast when the beam encounters brush. I'm sure there's something in the particle wave theory that explains the phenomenon, I don't know exactly what, but the effect is plainly visible. I've found there's really only two ways to go if you're trying to illuminate the woods, if you want to see far you need a very concentrated beam that can shoot all or at least most of its light through gaps in the vegetation... otherwise a floody beam with massive output. A Mag running an MR16 on 5 Li-Ion's works quite well for creating a little patch of day in a dark wood.

If the real issue is ghosts and not darkness then it is a problem of a spiritual nature and therefore requires a solution of a spiritual nature.

Like having the light blessed.

Re: light to banish ghost in dark wood

That might help, just be careful who does the blessing. :devil: Also consider a blue beam filter, just be sure to crank up the raw output to compensate for any losses.

Just get a light that fires silver bullets also.

Wait, that's for werewolves, never mind...

Like Paul Reubens? Oh wait, no.

Forget ghosts! I'm much more afraid of running into Paul Reubens in the dark! 😱

Though as I recall Pee-Wee may have been in possession of one of the earliest hotwires.

Something like this:

And if that fails how about a good old talisman against the dark lord?

You might need OVER 9000 lumens!!1

Allways wanted to ask this question. How many CPF'ers are flashaholics because they're afraid of the dark? Guess this thread answers my question! And yea any non-believers head on over to VA and you can check out some of my friends houses and propertys. There are MANY old civil war hospitals and battlefields around where I live (Mechanicsville/ Cold Harbor area)

I kind of like the dark actually. I see pretty well at night too.

I just dig the aesthetics of flashlights. :shrug:

great to reread this old thread and the new. of all of us i think SGT LED has had the best account or experience with a ghost. clearly that experience precluded both a shotgun AND a flashlight.
could be flashlight best suited would be the light within. that light could attract a ghost or even repell a ghost. kinda depends on the ghost i guess.
i still contend that if you really wanted to sneak up on a ghost you need very very low.... preferably a light that in another color spectrum than the run of the mill LED or incan. UV might could do it. but, maybe we are looking at this the wrong way completely.
flashlights are for people.... so people can illuminate the imperical world around them. if ghosts exist they are not of our perception. it could be that we do not need a flashlight but a tuning fork that emits an inaudible sound wave to create an outline of movement or unperceived mass in the normal dimensions we experience. the tuning fork could have a flashlight built in but the light could interfere with the oscilating vibration of the fork. the pitch would likely have to be very high.
we do need to consider now if the fork can be had in Ti and does it come with a strike bezel or will it be an after market offering from a secondary vendor? also, does the fork have a clip and is the clip sufficient for the task at hand? can we get a bigger fork with more throw and can we upgrade the fork when the forking technology allows?

Yeah it's so much easier to stick your head in the sand and openly mock the beliefs of others 😗

Are you colourblind in any way?

 

[Sgt. LED]

Yes I am actually. Classic red/green.

EDIT: OK I just looked it up, There is a link between colorblindness and seeing better at night! Cool
I noticed I saw better at night than others but I never knew why. That's awesome.
I also found this site that has a bunch of tests. http://www.moillusions.com/2009/04/color-blindness-test-ultimate-edition.html I failed bigger than sh*t. LOL
