Three thoughts actually. First, are there any women here at all? I guess the allure of high-powered flashlights doesn't have much feminine appeal.
Secondly, if you have explored DX, you have probably noticed an adult toys section.
Third, seems like most folks here really dislike blinky modes in flashlights.
OK, so at what point do those random thoughts intersect? I was thinking that maybe DX could figure out a way to market a nice XM-L flashlight with 5 modes that would meet with more acceptance. I suggest the 5 modes be High, Med, Low, V-Lo and V-High. The 'V' being vibrate modes. Sort of see where I'm going with this? And speaking of seeing where you are going (or coming...) the flashlight/vibe combo would make that easy.
Maybe I should just patent the idea now before it becomes famous as Troop's Buzzlight. Available in HAIII in nice soft pastel colors...
Oh yeah, the three light modes would also control how hot the light gets, which could be promising as well.
LOL, it might be a little uncomfortable if you got your significant other a Solarforce-styled "Buzzlight" and she looked at you and said, "Um, don't they make a 3-D Maglite one?"
