Good afternoon. I just registered - I've browsed this forum for some time, but I needed to pass the "rite of initiation"... purchasing an Arclight!! At the moment, I am the proud owner of an AAA arclight, an AA arclight, as well as an Infinity, an Infinity Ultra, a 3-AA Longlight, and some other off-brand LED lights. I look forward to the forums!!

Ignore the posts on this thread warning you about your money and wallet. It is possible to be an ARC fan without constantly spending money.
I can't prove it, but I have on good authority that someone once bought an ARC flashlight and never bought another or accessories. Like I said, I can't document it, but it must be true. Please let it be true.....I can't go on like this.

/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/hahaha.gifThere is no documentation. It's a myth. A rumor started from one of the spouses. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grinser2.gif

Sure there is documentation... somewhere. All we have to do is keep cross-referencing Peter's customer files with the obituary notices world-wide. Somewhere, eventually, we'll find a match!

Welcome- Good choice buying a Arc! Of course I'm a tad biased but then we all are!
You can be a member and not empty your wallet. That said I don't believe you will one of those few. You bought a AAA and a AA at the same time - and you already have a CMG. Trends like those don't bode well for you. Take it from a member that has invested thousands of $$$ in Personal Illumination Tools (PITs).

Welcome to the CPF!
I went an entire four months with just an Arc AA. Life was good until I wanted a single cell light that put out red light. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif Figured the Arc AAA in red would be brighter than the CMG Infinity Task Light w/red LED. Now I have two and the disease spreads.
When the AAAs become available again, I need one for me, another for my wife, two for friends that are retiring and another for a friend. The great thing about Arc AAAs for gifts, they will use them for the rest of their life (or until you buy them a 2020 Arc wazoo AAA)
Enjoy your time here, it is a great bunch of folks but once your flashlight collection hits a dozen... /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/faint.gif

Hello and welcome...
I first started out here trying to justify my purchases for use on duty as work related...We flashaholics have a way of trying to rationalize each purchase.
I quickly realized that I was buying many just due to the cool factor and now have many more than I can ever use.
Oh well,just enjoy the ride as the longer you are here the more you will learn and also spend.

Do you own 1 screwdriver? I didn't think so...many flashlights for many different reasons! Lots of reading here will indeed render some valuable information that will hopefully result in some wise purchases for you.

Hey, Hey, & Hello Hobydog! Within three days of joining the CPF I realized that I absolutely had to have an Arc AAA. A good EDC is perfectly justifiable because it's a personal safety device. There's no turning back.
