I'd be glad to do it, but I'm wondering if it would just be easier to start a new thread. Send me a PM & let me know what you think would be best.
 
Bear in mind that posts will always be listed in date/time order, and that can't be changed. So if a new thread is started, it won't be realistic to move posts into it that are older than the thread - the oldest post would become the new post #1.

I could make an artifically old post #1 by copying it from somewhere else and stripping out the content to be replaced by whatever is required, but Outdoorsman5 is a fairly recently-joined member and no post made by him could be given a date more than 3 months old, when he joined.

I understand. RichS & have discussed it, and think it would be best for me to just start a new thread with the same criteria. I'll keep the new thread going indefinitely (if I'm able) updating it as needed...maybe even give yearly rankings as it matures. Should we remove the old thread as a sticky, and replace it with the new one once the new thread has been established? Otherwise some may think it's a duplicate thread. (I'm just trying to think this through.) What do you recommend DM51?
 
A new thread would probably be best. When it is up and running, I'll unstick this one and stick the new one.

We'll add links at the end of this one to show where it is continued, and in the new one to show people where the original was. I would be happy to give any help you may need with copying material across from post #1 of this thread to the new one, so the list stays intact and you can just carry on with it.

Just let me know when you are ready, and tell me what help you need. 🙂
 
Re: The Flashaholic's "Must Have" List

Eastward YJ J09 (for AA) or J08 (for CR123A or 16340).

Why?? Because it's a really pretty light for under $20 (from DX). Will take abuse in the pocket, and you don't have to feel sorry for it. The modes are useless though.


Otherwise, for me its these Fenix lights: LD15, LD20, TK70.

TK70, as soon as i have the disposable income, since it will set me back over $300 with good batteries and a good charger. Dont need it, but its a WANT that id use at every opportunity🙂 will make a killer bike-light!

Absolutely - these are still 3 of my "must-have's" as well. Great choices!
 
Xeno E03 XM-L, great new flashlight. Already got cool white tint and ordered a neutral white as I love this light.

3 different colors: red, blue and black
3 different tints: cool white, neutral and warm
 
An emergency light that runs on CR123s. It can sit around for years without the batteries discharging. When the lights go out, everyone needs a go-to light. I have kept a Surefire G2 by the bed for years.
 
Fenix ld01, my edc. 🙂
Nitecore d11.2, even with no clip its good for me.
Jetbeam ba20.

oh yeah and hello cpf-ers :wave:
 
Sorry for this thread being in "limbo" for so long...

As it turns out, Mark (Outdoorsman5) decided he did not have the time to devote to keeping this thread updated. Unfortunately I still cannot devote the time needed to keep it going either.

If any other CPF member is willing to take over this thread, I think it would be appreciated by members of this community. Thanks for considering!

Let me know if you are interested in volunteering, and we'll discuss it via PM or email.

Thanks!

-Rich
