Show off your collection! *pics*

I showed Old4570's collection to my missus. She said if I buy that many she is leaving. lol

I don't have the biggest or the best collection but I do have the Best Background. Cool

haha you definitely win for best background. And that still ain't a bad collection! Very nice lights!:D

I just imagine people walking past, wondering what in the hell you are doing posing a bunch of flashlights for photos near the ocean ;)

edit: is that the solarforce lantern attachment? how does it work. I am curious about it for camping use.

Thanks. Funny you mentioned the people because they kept walking and driving past me wondering what the hell I was doing. They just kept circling around me over and over trying to get a better look. Laughing

About the lantern attachment: just remove the bezel and screw in the lantern. I've used it on the patio at night with friends while drinking beers and it isn't all that bright but does an ok job I guess. It does impress my friends though.

As for camping use, it should work just fine in and around the tent or even using it around the campground. The cool thing is that you just unscrew the lantern and you have a regular flashlight. I can't wait to see how much brighter it is when my XML gets here.

OMG...look at those lights...I'm years away from those collection. Which is your best light, old4570 and fishinfool?

The XM-L rule the roost for power ...

4 Solarforce hosts with XM-L emitters and one Ultrafire A20 XM-L

My N-light AAA 3 mode , I swapped out the electronic tail clicky for a regular reverse clicky , works a treat now ..

So many to chose from , output is not everything ...

My Ultrafire RL 168 [ SSC P4 ] 14500 , is a fav [ 3 mode ]

My A20 SSC P7 is very nice [ all flood ]

My 502B SSC P7 = still a very nice light ..

Just too many nice ones ...

LOL. Good thing this isn't a gun forum then. ;)

Great thread, by the way. I just realized I have lights stashed away in a million and one places but I have surprisingly few pictures of them. And by that, I mean practically none, except the stuff already posted on DX.

You know you are a flashaholic when:

You buy a new camera to take photos of the innards of torches....

;)

LOL Fishinfool! I love it. You know you're a flashaholic when...

- You take your flashlights for a beach vacation in Hawaii!

Definitely nice.

Old4570-

Sorry, "missus" is slang for wife. Btw, I've always meant to tell you good choice on your screen name. A 405gr hardcast bullet @ 1800fps works amazingly well on some of the larger hogs around here

Oooo, herro fellow. I'm into broadcasting but on the FM side, been an fcc engineer (for whatever that's worth) and WELL into broadcast audio processing for better part of a decade now.

If you wanna sound like God on the air, check this out: http://www.ceaudio.com/ an audio processor I'm involved with. Effortlessly competes with the latest offering from Omnia and totally destroys the Orban 8600, for a price that's about as cheap as it can be without losing money selling it. It does support asymmetric clipping too, if you have a DC-straight audio card to output it from. Like a Marian Trace Alpha.

Stop by the forums. There's some pretty decent 'ham' setups running it now, including a 1,000,000 watt ERP directional outside of salt lake city. Another proper use for the term "flame thrower". ;) Cheers.

Funny Don! The camera was a gift but I did spend a few hours rounding up my flashlights, packing them in towels to protect them, driving them out to the beach, unpacking them and setting them up.

I AM a Flashaholic and I'm proud of it. :bigsmile:

Let me add to that:

You know you're a flashaholic when...

- You take your flashlights for a beach vacation in Hawaii!

And even though several dozen people looked at you like you were crazy, it did not bother you one bit.

I love all my lights equally Laughing but my favorites are the Aurora SH-34, the TrustFire F23 and the UltraFire C3 because I love stainless steel (something I caught from Don :bigsmile:) and because they fit just fine in my pockets.

I too got the SS bug from Don. Can't wait that the LT prize C3 comes to me. Already bought some polishing stuff. :D

Actually, I was talking about me :)

I did....

Can't wait to see the light you make when that reflector is finished. Looks like it could heat sink any LED! :)

Planning to light up nearby planets with it?

Dang...restoring the front fender of a '38 coupe....I was never any good at body work. As a car nut, I'd love to see the finished product!

Naaa , you missed my pun !

I dont have a wife or Girl friend ... Found them to be too demanding ..

Demanding that I stop playing with my toys .... Guns cars bikes etc ....

Here in Oz , not much too chose from , all a bunch of Socialistas !

So until I find a nice Republican ! I will just fly solo ... Im not selling my soul to be with a headache !

As soon as my camera is working again I’ll have to take my lights outside and take some pictures against the lovely vistas of Bolton.
Obviously I’ll have to have them all turned out to fight the overwhelming dankness.
Fishinfool, I think secretly we all hate you a bit now :stuck_out_tongue:

C'mon now, can't we all just get along? LOL

I think my next pictures will be of Mauna Kea in the background or maybe one with waterfalls in the background. Probably not for a long time because it took a half a day just to take the pictures above. Too much work.
