CMG Infinity w/ LED pointing to the side

What a disapointment... Just got the smoked silver one today from Triple Ought and the led is not pointing straight forward. I called them and they can only replace it by January 5th. I thought about returning it.

Then I called CMG and talked to Jimmy. He offered to send me a new one immediately so it will be here before christmas and once I receive it I will return the defective one.

It will be here by Friday!

All I can say is: Thanks Jimmy, Thanks CMG. Great service & great flashlight!!!

Merry xmas to you all!!!

I would be curious to know what you think if the CMG vs. the ARC after you get them.

Enjoy

Hopefully I'll be receiving the ARC LE by the end of the week too and I already know they are completely different Flashlights. I antecipate they have two different purposes and can't be compared...

As a Task Light, the long lasting CMG is perfect for me. Reading the CPF I learned to lower my expectations and I found the Infinity Light output quite reasonable for the purpose I have in mind.

As a day-to-day mini Blaster and product quality the ARC LE is the best. I will only feel complete having them both...

God, this flashaholic thing got me bad!!! Tks guys!

You think you have it bad.
I was up to around 200 flashlights before losing count. I could have had anything I wanted for Christmas this year (within $200-$300) and what do I get? Another f$*@#ing flashlight!! Sure, it's a nice Uke Light Cannon HID, but it's still a flashlight.
That's when you know you've got it bad.

I need another flashlight like a fish needs a toilet.

Yeah, I put the brakes on after I bought:

Infinity - Yellow
Infinity - Blue-Green
ARC AAA - Turquoise
Photon II - White
Photon II - Turqoise
Photon II - Red
Eveready LED Lantern (White)
...and 5 Photon IIs (white) as gifts.

I like 'em all. (Although, the yellow Infinity is just TOO dim).

I carry the Red Photon II with me at all times.
The Blue-Green Infinity is great for reading or night walks (I use a lithium AA).
When I go camping, I'll take the Photon II off my key chain and put on the ARC AAA.

Wow! 200 flashlights! Now I feel like I didn't go too far overboard.

A Light Cannon, ehh? That's near the top of my wishlist!! I that bad boy will make it to your review page soon. I REEEAAALY want one, but I haven't seen any 'nuclear blast' beamshots yet That will push me to spend the money...

And I thought the Arc LS was going to be my most expensive flashlight purchase!!

I stopped counting somewhere between 175 and 185. I've got more than 200 but fewer than 300, that much I'm sure of.
But I do have at least 300 insulators.
Two major collections of "things" in one 300-400 sq. foot downtown flat.

What should I start collecting next?
Vacuum cleaner belts?
Black gears?
Notebooks?
Telephones?
Dishwasher rinse agent dispensers?

For me it was a toss-up between multi-tools and nose-hair trimmers. I ended up with the multi-tools, so you can go ahead and take the trimmers if you'd like.

Hey now wait a minute - I got first dibs on the nose hair trimmers.

Wow!!! Almost 300!?! Model citizen...

Now I know why you called it "The LED Museum"

Your reviews on Doug Ritter's website (http://www.equipped.org/led_lights1.htm) were my first source of information and reviews and really started my flash-a-holic never ending desires. Yes, you did it... Thanks!

My wish list keeps growing... Legend LX, UKE 2L, E2, ARC LS...

I am honored with your feedback!
