Just a few hours ago the power went out here in the land of beer, brats and cheese and it could not have been more ironic.
All the sudden the lights flickered a couple of times and
total darkness in my area, when I say black, it was really black (havin' a snowstorm).
Like any other Flashaholic, I was within arms reach of a few flashlights, so it maybe took me a total of 3 seconds to grab a flashlight.
*The only way it could have been faster is if I had one in my hand at that exact second.
So I grabber some of my beater 18650 lights (for long runtime) that have P60 Deree drop-ins and set those on low. Then I fired up a good old Mag w/ an SSC drop-in.
I found a few glass vase 'things' and made some excellent CREE/SSC candles. {super bounce test}
Must admit I was laughing to my self for having a bunch of flashlights, quite ironic.
I thought it was going to last all night, and I was ready!!
Unfortunately, it only lasted about 2 1/2 hours, Had an absolute blast with my lights!!...

My two P3D's, P1D-CE, and P2D-CE would all be probably set to low and tail standing where needed.
Spoken like a true Flashoholic! :thumbsup:
. I have about 100 lights on hand with maybe 60 eneloops fully charged, and hundreds of primary batteries. You know what, you got me thinking, it's time to order more lights and more eneloops. I do hope I'm prepared if I ever need.
