I keep having this idea that some day the power will go out in the whole neighborhood for a few days or even hours and I'll finally hear my wife, kids, friends and neighbors say "It's sure a good thing Brad has all those flashlights."
Every time I get a new light I always hear the same thing. "But you don't need another flashlight." To keep from hearing these dreaded words, now when I get a new light I just set it next to my others and no one can even tell the difference. I think everyone at my house is getting tired of my hobby.
The wife yelled at me this morning for messing up the counter with my battery charger. I had my Eneloops and other batteries all lined up to charge. She helpfully mixed all the charged and uncharged batteries together in a box for me and moved them. :green:
Has anyone here ever had an experience where they finally got some appreciation for having all those flashlights and batteries sitting around the house? Trapped in a cave or massive power failure or anything like that?
I'd love to hear about it.
Brad
