Title says it! What do you primarily use your flashlight for. What's your favorite flashlight you own for the task?

I used to use mine for dog walking, thats how it started. Now its sneeking around the house, mountain biking, working on cars , diy, and trying to kill friends with strobe.

Work (private security) and camping/teaching needs.
5 lights usually in total. Keychain light, Headlamp, pocket light, medium throwing and major thrower.

Then of course all the random things like need a light to find the light I dropped. 😆

Lighting up Possums on the neighbors fence. Cute lil' darlings. Don't want to blind them though.

Mostly i annoy the wife. I turn on turbo mode when i want moonlight mode by accident when we are sleeping. 1400lm is down right absurd with fully adjusted eyes.

Other than that i use it for dog walking, looking at the circuit breaker box in the basement, and working on the motorcycle/car. Ive been wanting to go camping just to use some of my lights lol. I find as many uses for it as possible since its something i enjoy.

checking for burglers and car thieves in low light premises around my apartment as well as a part of my self-defense tools to check for potential danger in the dark mostly when I walk my dog in the night Last time I used my flashlight to search for my neighbour's lost dog. And I also use them to annoy my friend on regular basis. :D But for any kind of EDC use.
