I've spent more than $2K on lights in less than a year as a CPfer. Sometimes I think I need to check into some kind of clinic.. But that would be WAY more expensive than staying here! So - here I am..
... with aluminium and stainless steel, I might add. Most certainly NOT money - in fact, the wallet got so thin, packing a bigger light into the same pocket that it occupies is now a snap!
+1 on that. I'm a college student, and for a week, my two decisions were literally: Buy enough food, or buy that Fenix L2P... I chose the Fenix... :rock:
It's definately an expensive hobby, but the way I figure it, when there's a power outage, this hobby will pay off for my family and I, as we'll have plenty of light.
I would REALLY like to see a nice 2-3 day blackout here (or at my place in Evansville, IN), just for the fun of it. It would be nice to stand next to that person who walks around with his Mini-Mag, like it's the most powerful small light, and bring out the L2P... of course, boy would I feel like a fool if he had an "uber mod job" done to that thing... but then, I have the darkness to sulk away in.
Well, I'm running out of space and money. My current 60+ flashlight collection started in a little corner behind the doorway to the den. Now it's grown to the point where half the threshold's width across the floor. Figure I'll be relocating the lights soon.
