Hi, I’m Matt and I’m a flashaholic. My sobriety date is March 1st 2019.
background talk: did you hear about the new MS18 with 100,000 lumens or the new DS18 or MF01S with 14,000 high cri lumens?
Matt - umm

just look how many times my name appears as a buyer, as opposed to a seller in a wts thread
If you make a new acquaintance and, in the course of conversation, mention that you’re a flashlight hobbyist (or words to that effect), how many people respond with “Oh wow, that’s really cool!”?
Ok, now how many respond with a slightly perplexed, sometimes condescending smile followed by “oh, isn’t that nice.”?
I’m not sure what “normal” is but I don’t think we’re it.
Last month I made a meme that depicts my BLF experience thus far… It might help others identify if they’re a flashaholic also
Agro I feel like you’ve just walked into a church and asked “is anyone here religious?”
I think about flashlights a lot, like every day. Guess that qualifies me, I voted yes
Flashaholics 12 step guide:
When I’m out with people do I sometimes get bored and start thinking about how much fun I could be having playing/modding/buying/researching flashlights? :smiling_imp:
if an addiction is logical, then yes I am.
Of coarse Not—Denial is the first sign of Addiction
Without question. We’ll see if it holds long term.
Gonna have to vote no on this one
No longer even a question if:
You can’t remember when you past a hundred lights
You can’t remember how many you have given away
You can count at least 80 within arms reach (with batteries)
Your wife stopped asking if that’s a new light on your desk
Like the saying goes “If you have to ask?”
You’re browsing a flashlight forum and making posts.
If you’re reading this thread, the only correct response to the poll is “Yes, I am a flashaholic.”
I haven’t had one all day, but I may need one tonight. So is that a no, or am I in denial?
Second sign of Addiction—The people you hang around encourage you to have another round ( Group Buys )
Hey guys, feel free to look at my posts about this subject. Ha Ha.
It is more about learning the skills to build them i was going to put my lathe in the dinning room but it was too big and heavy to get it there. I do have a mobile welding bench in the kitchen and the best thing about TIG is no splatter so i can weld on my coffee table.
Mmmmmm, I love flashohol…
