I think I have all the possible flashlights I could possibly need. Could it be true?

YuccaPatrol · Apr 9, 2009

I've now got a custom Serv-Light headlamp, a Zebralight H60 and H50, two modified PT Apex headlamps, Deerelight R2 and MC-E, a couple 6P's with various drop-ins and tailcaps, Nitecore D10, 2 Fenix L2d's, several L0D's, L1D, P2D, a few E01's, and now finally a titanium Lummi Wee with trits to wear around my neck, as well as many others that I won't bother to list.

Other than an HID, I can't really think of anything that wouldn't just duplicate what I already have. . . .

Could it really be that there's not another flashlight I need?

Is not what you need, is what you want.

scottaw · Apr 9, 2009

I didn't buy a light for about 8 months, then i've gotten about 6 in 2 months, you'll go through phases....

Sounds like your collection is missing a hotwire. :twothumbs

I have all the lights I need and want now, it isn't really very many. Now I just focus on making them perform the way I want them to. Collecting was never my motivation, I have practical lighting needs I want practical lighting solutions for.

I was thinking that for him.

Since you think you have what you need, now get what you want:huh:.

Mod one of those 6Ps for a Malkoff M30 + 1x18650. A very righteous member is offering FREE 18650 lathe boring in the marketplace right now for 6 and 9Ps.

That will get you more Lumens, longer run times than your Deere-R2 (*edit* assuming your deere is 2x16340), cooler operating temps than your MC-E and a beam that both floods and throws

You're just suffering a temporary condition known as normal-lightis. It'll go away soon enough. There are already hints it's receding if you read your own post again. Something about HID ....

Hmmm Yes , need VS want .

Take a look at the
Neofab Legion II.
EPSILON ED-P71.
Fenix TK40.
EagleTac M2/M2X.
5.11 Tactical Light for Life UC3.400.

You have an awesome light collection YuccaPatrol!

I think you just need to get a powerful spotlight now and then you will be 100% satisfied. I recommend the Stanley rechargeable HID spotlight or Coleman 530 lumen LED spotlight.

Don't be ridiculous. With all those lights, you're definitely a flashaholic. There's no escaping the need for more lights. I've been through with lights, several times, always just one or two away from my very last. Look at me, now: I'm unemployed (staying home with the baby), not making any money, don't have any money, yet, I've managed to spend over $300 on flashlights in the past month. Fortunately, I've sold more than that, but still, I could be using that money for other stuff, like savings, groceries, diapers...but no, what did I spend it on? Flashlights! These days, I only use a flashlight around the house, yet, I bought several that are too bright for such use. Makes no sense.

csshih · Apr 10, 2009

hmm.. you could always send me some, then you can fill up the gaps again! :nana:

Unemployed and obviously fertile...hmm... how about making more babies and selling those? It's a home manufacturing money making opportunity that doesn't need specialist knowledge or tools. All you need is a good advertising thread for the Market Place to generate pre-orders.

How about a McGizmo or a modded Mag ?

Yup, it's totally possible. That said:

I still want other lights. However, I simply cannot justify buying them anymore (so I buy presents for others).

You are absolutely right, YuccaPatrol.

Just like me, you don't need any more lights. We do not need to buy any more lights.............

But did you happen to see the new Nightcore EZ 1-AA light that is coming out? It looks totally awesome, and definitely a must have ......:devil:

if there's any light you no longer want to keep let me know.... :takeit:

saabgoblin · Apr 10, 2009

You're just suffering from the modern day affliction of having too many choices. Take a breather, I just wish that I could listen to my own advice.:candle:
