Average dollar amount spent per light

I don't care how many lights you own or what your total investment is .

Question is what is your average spent on lights that you consider " your lights ".... in your collection .

What's your number ?

for lights over $10, probably average would be $15

{i don;t have anything that was over $40}

I actually keep a spreadsheet. 48.00 per light. I have 33

Edit. Bought one and sold one. New Average is 50.30 per light, 33 lights total.

~ $20.00 USD

$40. My eight C8+’s do a good job of bringing that average down, haha.

My guess is between $20-25USD per light average.

Average $50 for 2022 collection.

The average of the two that I carry daily is $65. I don’t want to try to figure out the average of all of them, BUT, I just ordered some lights today and I think it’s going to bring the average down just a little bit. That’s got to be a good thing. Yep I’m convinced that’s a good thing.

Good point. I think I need to order a few more S2+. It’ll save money, because it brings the average down. Right?

I don’t know my average, but I have to be really convinced to spend over $40, and I don’t do it very often. I would guess my average is around $25.

$4.12

seriously, i do not know.
i have a LOT of free (give-away) ones,
so the average would be less than $10.

$40 is the median.

I don't know about average, but I usually won't spend more than $50 on a light for myself.

For my family, I usually won't spend more than $30 per light, but they're not nearly as picky as I am.

Being a true bean counter means that a hobby is only a serious endeaver if all costs are accounted for, in a spreadsheet. So I took the cost connected to the influx (purchase, gifts, GAW, coupons, review) of lights. And devided that by the total number of lights (holy $h). Without tools, batteries, parts, etc. the average cost was €17.88 per light. Yep, I live in NL and we deal in EURO. With a conversion rate of 1.10 dollar per EURO that’s about $20 per light.

$93.33 is my average per flashlight.

Realistically, well over $100

Good question.

My average is probably in the mid $30's. Many below that number but a couple of higher price ones (BLF-GT and LEP) can up the average pretty fast.

Probably around $40, but I didn’t count it, it’s just guess. :smiley:

Well…$67.33 USD average just for torches. Don’t get me started on accessories and batteries.

Last time I did this it came out to $18.50

About $80. What can I say, I have expensive tastes. However, I’ve still spent less on this hobby overall compared to several others.

And to be fair , this is the Budget Light Forum. My $80 average could be considered frugal.
