Show your nightstand flashlight!

[gurdygurds]

I'd like to see some knurling on the smaller bodied AA lights as well. Still prefer the fully ribbed over the latest smooth body iteration.

No, I just swapped it with the tailcap from my headlamp for fun. 😜

Fond memories of mismatched anodizing from SC62d back in the day.

My bedside table is like many a dumping spot for pocketable items 😅

I used to have two of those Energizer 1AA lights. The first was the black version, then I picked up the gunmetal version. I ran both of them on a 14500. They would heat up quick. The black interestingly enough had a very soft boot, that when the light was on, it was soft enoug that if you stood it on the button, it would tailstand :^) The GM color one did not do that. They were also forward clickies and were pretty cool.

Yes, new software works except having to go to end of responses to respond.
My bedside light is my favorite best friend and pocket pal. Coast HX5. I use the alternate 14500 Li battery and keep an extra handfull by the charger. Got about a half dozen of these around the house.

Tint mix 219b D18 and a D4SV2 519a 2700K DD Boost. D18 is ambient light and D4SV2 is sleep light for last minute use. Very warm.

Some great pictures in this thread. My nightstand light is an HDS Rotary with Nichia emitter and a Surefire diffuser. Been using it for years.

My Zebralights have pulled all sorts of duty. Pocket edc, sling bag, desk, kitchen, glove box, and yes...nightstand. Some of my favorite lights for sure. They definitely take me back a few years.

These four are on my nightstand now. Two of my favorite brands. I used to have a few of Henry's lights but this Rotary 250 lumen is the only one I have left. The two on the left are Milkyspit's which I also used to have more of. The other one is what it says it is. I have had soooo many Surefire's, both incans and led, and those 3 are the only ones left. I think I have around 20 lights or so now. I used to have more.

Bedside light is a Fenix LD22.

 

[AMD64Brunette]

At the moment, my bedside light that I use most is a Lumintop Tool AA 2.0.

(cool white, running a 14500 battery.)

It's nice to have a clicky light for middle of the night.. no fumbling with a twisty switch.

Those are both nice entries, but I believe the name of this thread is, "Show Your Nightstand Flashlight".

Come on guys, get with the program...because

Great light. I have a classic 2xAA on my nightstand also. 17 years old and still kicking azz. Makes for a good self defense weapon also. Been a great light.

Agreed. I have Lumintop FWAA for the same reason, the clicky switch. Only difference with the FWAA is that it is around 4500K. So fairly warm. Not as warm as some, but pretty warm.

Really impressed that it's still going strong after all these years.

Thing is built like a tank. Glad I still have it. Has a great UI. Press and hold to ramp down and ramp down. Tap then hold directly to high and directly to low. Love it!

I keep a few...

But I'm actually looking for one that is big and heavy, something that can knock someone out when smacked over their head.

I have a 6d mag, but that sucker lives on the floor. Imagine jolting awake, rocking the nightstand, and having a couple pounds of blunt aluminum and batteries trying to guillotine you?

That's fine with me! I keep my UV lights on the floor, they're fairly big and heavy too. I use them to light up the glow in the dark clock I have before going to sleep.

I swap things around but usually this.
