I think I am now a True Flashoholic

Well, I think I have moved into true flashoholic territory today. I got my first Sipik SK68 clone, an Ultrafire version, I got my first flashlight from China, the SK68 clone, and I got my first TrustFire and UltraFire parts, I got TrustFire Flame 14500s and obviously the SK68 for UltraFire. Broke 3 different barriers today.

All downhill from here.

No, don’t say that!!

By "downhill" he means what graph of your bank account will soon look like.. ;)

Oh I know, at the very least this is probably my cheapest hobby, computers and car audio are definitely more expensive, lol.

"One of us....one of us....ONE OF US....ONE OF US !!! "

You should be shopping for a DMM now, if you don't already own one.

DMM, proper hobby charger, XM-L´s and at least one triple XM-L, bucket load of batteries to test with.

Pliers, tweezers, soldering iron and such accessories are soon needed.

Good luck! :)

Here's when you know you're a "real flashaholic" ...

When you catch yourself judging the threads on the orange juice container .

Already have a DMM, soldering iron, I have a JETBeam BC40, a Shining Beam P-Rocket and a UF-T50 on the way from China now.

The soldering iron and DMM are form being into car audio and from being an EE, lol, very good things for an EE to have.

You still need that triple XM-L though. Grab a Skyray King or DRY triple!

The GF may kill me if I order another flashlight, lol.

Not if its for her. Then all you have to do us borrow it a lot.

Then don't marry her

Lol, nice suggestions guys.

Also, I do work for Cree so it is really cool to see these lights with our products in them and to see that Cree is pretty much the #1 name in LEDs on all of these internet sites.

Best advice yet!

...and a lux meter to measure output, 550 paracord to make lanyards for your lights, maybe a lighter or two from Ebay (because you need one to melt the paracord :p), maybe some nice budget knives like Sanrenmu or Enlan, some GITD stuff like GITD o-rings, tritium vials etc. :bigsmile:

Hahahahohohohoooo :)

Wait a damn minute ..Did you just say you work for Cree ???

I have fantasies of just getting into the dumpster .

Did you see obama?...

when are you going to have a giveaway reel :P

Where's the beef ?

Wait a minute ....if you worrk at Cree.... maybe I'll marry ya

What if she is the bartender at Kilts?
