List all of the lights you plan to get this year!
You may also put a list of ones you want, but can't get for some reason.

My list: (starting from most wanted)
1: Nitecore D10/EX10 - $60
2: 2AA Multimode MiniMag - $25
3: Malkoff M60WL
4: Energizer 1W (Cree) $18
5: Mag Hotwire Mod

I really have not found much other lights that interest me enough that i want to get it.
Im probably going to add to this list though.

Surefire E1e, or E1w, Still waiting on UPS and getting nervous, could be an Ebay gone bad issue!
JetBeam 1, or the 3Military
Another Peak Led to the ever expanding collection.

You did say wish list so I'll stop there as not to be too greedy!
 
edc pocket light:
still thinking of which would be best. this is current list, and ranking
if "cheap": 1.nitecore d10, 2.itp, or 3.liteflux
if "bit more": 4.ra clicky, 5.jetbeam 6.-?-

cant decide. have been thinking 3 weeks already what to buy.

maybe get after the edc if money allows:

1.Maglite 2d with niteize dropin. (for my dad as beater light)
2.Maglite 2/3/4d terralux dropin (for my car as beater light)
3:Mce, p7 or multi cree flood light, with 2-3 mode (lo-med-hi).
4.My modded tonfa light (with cheap dx light i suppose)

maybe get if money to spend:
5.Maglite 2-4d with rop or something similar high output
(if wont make this rop, then i will probably buy Vector hid)
6. firestarter torch flashlight to awe people.
7.-15. some other cool lights i might want/need.

McLux Sundrop (2nd one)
Lunasol LS20
Fenix TK40
LPK AAA splash ano (hey, it's a wish list)
 
I really want to venture into the world of titainium, so a LunaSol 20 would be a good step in that direction. I am hoping my tax return will arrive before the wave is sold out.

I am also planning on having my KL2 head on my M3-CB modded by milkyspit. I am currently debating on a single P7 or MC-E with muti-levels, or a tri-R2 Cree mod with an Acorn driver set-up.

I am also going to pick up a Zebralight at some point in the near future, as I need a nice floody headlamp.

Then there are the new Surefires coming out as well, but I will wait and see which ones ACTUALLY get released this year.
 
Ra Twisty TR-85
Milky Roomsweeper, two-stage
Surefire E2G (polymer incandescent E series) for loaner house light and glove box

My 2009 Wishlist consists of just one light. I have heard so many of my fellow Flashaholics rave about it that I just have to have one. It is the Surefire E2D LED Defender. I already have the E1B Backup. Its high of 80 lumens and low of 5 lumens IMHO is just about perfect. I think that the Defenders high of 120 lumens and low of 5 lumens would be a very hard combination to beat. Also, I want to build another light like the SF Z2 Combatlight that I put together years ago. It will consist of a FiveMega C Tail C Head 2x18650 Black Finish body, and a Standard Surefire Z44 Bezel with a G&P A.I. Tailcap Switch with STROBE Function and a Malkoff M60 drop-in, with power coming from 2 AW 18650 Li-ion button top batteries. And there you are, a kick _ss light that should be really bright and run for a very long time in between rechargings. Anyway that is my wishlist for 2009. Good luck to everyone on their new lights in 2009.

Happy Dark Trails
 
I first want to finish my MiniMag MC-E and then let's see what's on my list:

Lummi Wee NS for my keychain
Zebralight H60 for night photography
Surefire G2L to use when it gets dirty

That's it for now. Later the year I want to finish my Maglite bikelight and maybe replace the P7 with a warmer tinted one. Depending on what's come out I'll get a new EDC. But basically my list changes every week :).

If I can somehow keep myself some purchasing Ti led pocket torches, I'd love to purchase something from PolarionUSA. However I am most likely gonna push for another one of Don's PD flashlights...:ohgeez:
