July 2010: lights you bought this month

Zebralight H31
RRT-0 R5
Nitecore Infilux -should get it tomorrow and I'm pretty excited about getting it.

From the Marketplace I got

Fenix TA30
HDS 170T- then bought a flush tailcap
DBS V3
Tiablo A9
HDS EDC Ultimate 60
Raidfire Spear

Out of everything I got this month the Ra 170 is obviously the best thing I got but I was surprised that I liked the Tiablo A9 as much as I do and with aspherical it's insane. The H31 is what I expected a top notch headlamp. Another thing I'm surprised is how much I like the TA30, it's such a solid built light and on medium (60 lumens) it will run for 25hrs 🙂

The only thing left is to get the Infilux from the mailman tomorrow and hope it's everything I think it can be.
 
Cruised the Malkoff Devices website and found some goodies in stock.
2 Malkoff M61 modules
1 Malkoff 3-6D Mag drop-in (cool white XPG) for my 5D MagLite

A few days later I found some more goodies in stock.
3 Malkoff M61W modules
mag reflector (oops, forgot on first order)

So now I have a couple spare D26 modules, maybe I should buy an MD2 or MD3 so they don't go to waste?
 
A Energizer Micro Headlamp. (Cree Emitter Inside)

July has been a bad month for my wallet...got a Lux V Surefire U2, a Milky modded E1E, and an MD3 with M61. And on the cheaper side of the spectrum, a Fenix E10 off of ebay.

No more lights for a while...😗 August is only a couple days away, that's a while right?
 
NexTorch T6A (this is my 3rd one already)
NexTorch RT-7
Inova T2 MP
Streamlight PT 2L
... and on their way.... Inova T4, Streamlight PolyTac, SF G2 yellow (the only color I am missing)....
(Without my wife knowing these) :laughing:
 
looks like im done buying flashlights for now. none bought.

my edc light rotation is working. got extra options where to choose if i get bored or need something of different kind..

what i do see needing still..

a small 1-2 mode (low high) 1AAA light with tactical momentary button.

a foward clicky 18650. (to compliment my tk11.. something smaller maybe) or just buy a foward clicky to solarforce L2.

-we will see if the darker nights of autumn will bring my buy buy buy nerve back online 🙂
 
Ra Clicky, 170 lumens, flush, Executive with Ti bezel. It will take pride of place next to the 120 Tactical I purhcased gently used earlier this month. 😀
 
Purchases this month? A Surefire A2 aviator with White LED's and a Surefire E1B backup on the way.
 
July has been my "illumination month", literally and figuratively. Before July, 2010, I had a very modest little collection of lights and didn't really care about anything except lumen rating. :sigh:

Toward the middle of the month, I began looking for a smaller replacement keychain light for my Fenix E01. In doing so, I inadvertently opened up a new-found fascination with small high-tech LED flashlights. I began researching all I could, and ended up reading dozens of threads here on CPF. So, in the last 2 weeks, I bought a Fenix LD15, a Nitecore D10 SP, and I joined CPF! 😉
