Photos of your AAA flashlight collection!


Left to right, Maratac copper, Lumintop Brass worm, Manker E02, Manker E01, Thrunite Ti-3, Sofirn C01 Cool White, Sofirn C01 Warm White, Harbor Freigth (3-AAA), Mini Maglite (2-AAA)

The Maratac was in my pocket the longest, the Thrunite got the most use (3 weeks on the JMT), I have not really used the mini maglite, my E01 is a bit wonky in skipping modes, but has arguably the nicest tint of them all, and was my first AAA of the group. They all have seen pocket time except the two larger ones. They don’t get much lovin anymore since I fell in love with my Emissar D4.

Seems you have the same problem I do. I find a light I like so much that I buy multiples of them because I am scared they might quit making them. :smiley:

Nice collections! :+1: :partying_face: :beer:

@lampliter, why so many black Olight i3 EOS lights? Are any modified?

I learned the lesson with the Thrunite Ti5… when I wanted to buy the Ti5 it was not produced and sold anymore… (missed it by 4 weeks, huge regrets, luckily I got one a few months later)
Same with the Thrunite T10S/T10T… wanted a Ti version… discontinued… happy I bought the aluminium T10 version as backup at least when they released the T10V2… felt like an idiot first for buying a light I won’t carry right away, but a few days later I was happy I did it. There’s nothing quite like these on the market anymore.

I bought 4 Sofirn C01 yesterday for the same reason… :person_facepalming:

as an excuse… I got family, so I expect they will “borrow” my lights and use and lose them, so I better have multiples of the nice ones.

I just like em; only one is slightly modded; I ground the tail down flat with a dremel and glued a strong magnet to it, 4th one from the left.

My name is lampliter and I am a flashaholic.
It’s not a problem; I can quit anytime. :sunglasses:

Dont have that many, a few for now, and yes another olight i3t in the back copper unopened :smiley:

My humble AAA flashlights collection:

And just for laughs an extra one with the 3xAAA adapter:

:smiley:

My little collection. :slight_smile:


Wow, some really extensive collections — Petr J, you’ve nearly got a rainbow going. :wink:

1 cheap zoomie
1 Olight i3T EOS
1 hc-lights.fi (BLF-348)
4 Sofirn C01

:blush:

I like those paracords on the C01’s :+1:

Thanks mate :wink:

BTW, I forgot to include the Nitefox K3 in the group! It currently lives in my tool’s keychain :wink:
Now I have the complete “collection” :wink:

Here’s a few.

The D4 in 18350 form factor is pretty amazing. I wear hoodies in the morning in lieu of turning up the heat pump, until my wife wakes up a few hours later. I have 7 of them in different weights/warmth and in the pocket of each is either a AAA copper Tool or a brass Ultratac K18 plus one ToolTi. I am thinking that the D4 is not that much bigger in a pocket like that. In addition it has a much lower low than any of my AAA’s since I use only 10440’s in all butt the ToolTi. And the high end is not even comparable.

HMMmmm! Can I justify my heating savings enuff to cover a few more D4’s?

:open_mouth:

.

I had an iTp and a Thrunite Ti but sold them recently.

Only one I have currently is a Titan Plus, but am waiting on a Lumapower LM21 to arrive.
