First off, I just wanted to introduce myself and say hello to you folks. Looking at my history of obsession, er, interest with flashlights, I figure I'll be here often. =) I've constantly read up on Brock's/Craig's LED sites, and have given into the fact that I will end up spending at least $50/month on a flashlight.
Well, I just purchased my 12th LED light (Arc AAA)! Woohoo! Too bad it's backordered... I am such a fan of flashlights that I am seriously considering driving 100 miles to the nearest Wal-Mart... hmmm... Bah, oh well - I will... eagerly wait for that light to arrive, as I found the Infinity to be a tad too heavy on my neck.
Anyhow... seeing as how LED lights were brought up again on slashdot (http://www.slashdot.org - you know, the geek news site), I was just curious as to what everyone's feelings were on how the LED light community (so to speak) is doing in terms of promoting itself.
I know I'm personally responsible for at least several hundred LED flashlight purchases amongst friends -- it's not that hard of a sell -- once they see the advantages, they're sold. I just was wondering why I have yet to see any mainstream company make a LED light and push/promote it...
