What did you use your flashlight for today?

[socal8080]

used my E2L underwater in a pool to get the bottom of a light fixture tab to line up to resecure the light. Fixture was in shaded side of pool, the light helped out big time. I've used it underwater a few times before, no problems so far.

Used my Streamlight Polystinger LED to see inside the cells during both counts today. BTW that's 612 cells. Did not use it to signal the picket operator today but I often do. Used my Fenix LD10 to inspect my truck tires after work and to find my way around in the dark. That's all have a nice day.

I used my TK40 just because it was dark. Walking around the inside and outside of my house just because I love my flashlights. Am I the only one? :thinking: I was surprised that my neighbors didn't call the cops. :naughty:

I used my Milky L2 to find my cellphone in the dark last night. Much more fun than turning on the "house lights".

For the next few days my Haiku XP-G 2XAA will be used in a test to see how long it will run using Energizer Ultimate Lithium L91's in the low mode that is about 6 lumens. Scout24 just completed his test using a single Surefire 123 Lithium battery and his Haiku ran 40hrs so this is a comparison test we think it should last at least 2 days. So I will be using my light for everything and not even turning my house lights on for the next 2 days or until my light runs out of juice.

to blind house flies, it makes them easy to swat. no flyswatter or epically fast and accurate eye-hand coordination needed. i can literally swat them in slow motion.😀

Used my light to light up ducks trying to sh*t all over neighbors dock, after which they would come visit my deck... actually the light was to help my dog chase them away, which worked quite well. It was also helpful to guide him back to the stairs so he could climb out of the lake....

I find this very interesting I think you might have created a new indoor sport. I will have to let a few flies in and try this just to be fair I might have a few drinks first to give them a chance.:drunk:

Power went out this morning after a flock of birds attacked a power transformer in the area and blew it up?!? That's what MB Hydro told me...crazy! Anyways, grabbed my Fenix E20 and kept an eye on the water level in the Sump Pit...power was out for 2.5 hours while the Electrical Company replaced the transformer...had to empty the sump pit with a pail while I waited for the electricity to come back on. Probably a good thing...apparently the birds around here are going kamikaze! :huh:

LG Mini II, used almost nightly to find and herd the cat back inside, just before going to sleep.

Am I the only one? :thinking:

Nope! That's 100% normal around these parts.

Well that's good to know. I don't even bother turning on lights at night when I need something or need to go somewhere, I just use my flashlights. Like we use to say in Alaska, "Just for the Halibut" which is 'just for the hell of it'.

I was doing some cleaning and found a missing flashlight, so now I own two flashlights. LOL

3LED MiniMag, I used it once found to compare the beam from it and my 7 year old Inova X5. The MiniMag is brighter.

Used my High CRI Clicky to navigate the dark hallways in the Corporate Center to drop off my backup tapes. I could have turned on the lights, but that would be no fun.

Last night I was down stairs in the basement refinishing one of my canes and went in the bathroom and saw some little ants on the floor and the more I looked the more I saw so I was spotting them with my light and smashing them with my cane then I went in the laundry room and there were some by the drain so I smashed them and then spent the rest of the night looking for ants I am not sure how they got in but this morning I mixed up some bug killer and sprayed my basement and around the house that was the first time in 20 years of living there I had ants in the basement. They were so small and light colored that I had to turn off the basement lights and just use my flashlight to spot them I think I got them all but I will keep searching for a few days just to make sure.
