Well, I finally did it. Thanks BLF.

I finally bit the bullet and ordered a BLF Q8 off BG, ordered a bunch of LG MJ1’s and a new Nitecore Intellicharger I4. While I was at it I ordered a Sofirn C8F as well. Pretty sure I am going to have to get into some kind of group therapy to rid myself of this addiction. Thanks a lot BLF. My wife is cussing y’all. :laughing:

You should have chose the blue pill. “Matrix”
If your like me, you’ll start telling your wife “oh, I got this one real cheap”. :innocent:
Buy a Utorch UT01 for $10 bucks.

It took me some time (11 flashlights) to figure out my likings.
Flashaholism, it’s humanely incurable :smiley:

I don’t have to hide my purchases from my wife, but there is still a problem. My wife has decided that for every single dollar I spend on flashlights, she insists to spend a minimum of 2 dollars on clothing. I have to hold my tongue because a happy wife = happy life!

My wife seems satisfied that my interests are harmless, and cost a LOT less than my daughter’s horseriding. Dont ever let your daughters sit on a horse, terrible mistake!

I’m lucky enough that I really don’t have to lie. I just have to remind her of the Amazon password for a day or so. Oh well, it’s worth it. I am only 16 lights in and the two on the way will make it 18. Then I have another list of ones I want but may have to space those out a bit.

Zulumoose, my family has a horse ranch outside of Shreveport, LA. It’s insane how much people spend on those horses and all the care and other things that go into it. I would have to get 5 extra jobs.

Between show expenses, lease, and travel, I reckon her hobby costs the equivalent of 15-30 flashlights a month, and after nearly a year I dont even have 30 yet.

Yes, of course, I see more lights in your immediate future. You deserve it. :exclamation:

“It’s not mine. I’m ordering for a friend. He already paid me”

"I got if for free as a valued, contributing member of BLF"

Haha!! :+1:

My wife has no problem with my hobby. I do because there is always another :person_facepalming:

Eh, my wife puts up with it. She kind of gets frustrated when she sees another package and asks what it is… Bit in reality it’s cheaper than my camp stoves, guns, cars, even most of my video games because I like vintage and hardware, and flash carts…

My sister asked my dad for a horse for her birthday when she was 13years old . He told her “You’re too young to have a horse ,you can have one when your 16 .” she never mentioned it again . till her 16th birthday “Where’s my horse daddy ?’
I think he was so stunned he just gave in and bought her a horse …he got caught :stuck_out_tongue:

I wish i could remember how it feels to own only 16 lights…
That’s about what i have with me some days - jean pockets, jacket, backpack and car. :person_facepalming:

Be prepared for some aggravation! :laughing:

BTW: Q8 and C8F are two great lights. :+1:

I was counting the other day …bored

13 in the kitchen

I think I have 19… But I have a tendency to clear out lights that are very similar now and then.

Edit: not counting cheap throw away lights

A quick pull up of my list I started on my first order
I have 28 purchased through this forum

Make that 21… There is one still in box, and a uniquefire 26650 zoomie I have yet to build…

Oh man, the “free” light. I used that one once. Got away with it and never will try and use it again.

Can’t wait for the row boat to get here with the Q8. The Sofirn C8F did come today. Popped a fresh 30Q in it and, wow, what a great light. Brightest light I have ever owned. Love the beam on it, great mix of throw and flood. Surprisingly my BLF A6 appeared today as well. I’m sure I don’t have to tell everyone on here how great a small EDC light that is.

beam0 told me the Wowtac A3S is back on Amazon so I think I will sneak on there and forget to take it out of my cart while I’m am buying a set of earrings.
