Hi, I’m Zerosvn and I have a problem: I can’t stop buying flashlights.
I went down the rabbit hole 2 years ago when I discovered the Sofirn Sp36.
I’ve had my fair share of Maglites and other “regular” flashlights before, but never knew about “high performance” flashlights and the flashlight enthusiast community.
My collection quickly ramped up to about 12 lights before I was able to stop. I did reviews for a few of them on my blog.
Fast forward to 2 weeks ago, I saw an Olight deal for a free keychain light. That’s when I got sucked into the hobby again.
7+ new lights later, I’m still on the flashlight high. I really need to stop buying.
Help!
Edit: Here’s the list of lights I recently purchased.
Already received:
- Olight Baton 3 Pro - OD green cw
- Olight i3t - stainless steel
- Olight iMorse (keychain light)
- Square 800lm cob led (for fun and gifts to family)
Awaiting delivery:
