Unfortunately, I'm not ambidextrous. Any idea where I can find a flashlight for a leftie?
 
What particular light do you have now that you believe is built only for right handed persons? I really can't think of any "right hand only" lights off the top of my head.

Well, maybe the right angle miltary 2D cell lights that have the slide switch on the side. Those are probably pretty righty-only.

This is a good question. I would be interested to see what serves more as a "lefty" flashlight.
 
I have multiple flashlights that all work fine in my right hand, but when I put it in my left hand, the beam shines back toward my abdomen.
 
You just solved my problem of looking into my belly button. Being right-handed, It never occured to me to hold the flashlight in my left hand. I thank you and my belly button lint thanks you (check eBay if you want some).
 
I have access to several sinestral oriented tools, left handed hammers, left handed screwdrivers. I even have some left handed drinking glasses.

When we found out my wife's car was metric, I told her I needed a whole new set of tools. Metric pliers, metric screwdrivers, metric crescent wrenches. She said get whatever you need.
 
I have a metric crescent wrench.
Has "METRIC" stamped right into the handle.

I had all my flashlights converted to left hand by a fella in Moosejaw,now the beam goes away from me.

That's because you're supposed to put the batteries in backwards. duh!
 
I actually had a left-handed Crescent wrench knock-off once. The rotation of the adjuster was bassackwards from a real Crescent! (Drove anyone who tried to use it, including me, nuts!)

Don't put the batteries in backwards -- it'll suck all the light back in!

Two of my brothers-in-law, a nephew, and my stepson are also left handed. My wife's getting nervous. We're taking over.

Left handed flashlights are a requirement for all snipe hunts. The snipes run away from the beam of a right handed flaslight. I thought every one knew this. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/nana.gif
