What\'s more important; batteries or flashlights?
Assume you have an adequate amount of flashlights; a solid EDC type, an ultra-bright reach-out-and-touch-someone light (like a 3-cell SF, maybe M4/6) as well as a longer run-time light like a CMG Ultra and/or Arc AAA.
I know, I know, you guys will say you can never have enough lights. But bear with me.
Assuming you have a light for just about every need, wouldn't it be more prudent to have extra batteries around rather than just buy more lights?
I ask because I'm trying to tell myself that I have enough lights and need to spend money elsewhere, but part of my mind tells me to get more lights because of the recent blackouts and storm. (Even though I'm on the left coast. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif )
