I have a black stand like this that used to be my media center stand. My media center got upgraded and now this thing sits near the middle of my apartment acting as a sort of side table. Currently my flashlights hang out on the top shelf with the batteries installed. I might have to adjust my strategy if it starts to look too cluttered though. It’s getting close.
I store mine all over the house with the tail caps slightly loose. My wife still hasn’t figured out that a quick turn and they work. I love her frustration on all these broken lights around the house. None work when she needs them.
I don’t “store” my flashlights, at all, really. I use them. My Fenix E12 v2.0 is my EDC, so it lives in my EDC survival kit pouch in my handbag. My Fenix HM23 is for backpacking/camping, and it lives in my backcountry handbag/”possibles” pouch. My Fenix PD36 TAC is primarily my bicycle headlamp, so it lives in its Fenix ALB-10 bicycle handlebar mount on my bicycle, which I park in my living room next to the front door, or I toss it in my handbag if I’m using it by itself. My Inova X1 is my bedside light, so it sits on my bedside table.
The only flashlights I can really say I “store” are the ones I no longer use, which at the moment are just sitting in a drawer next to my bed. I suppose I should probably put them in the Plano tackle box in my junk drawer in the kitchen, in case I want to ever use them (Leatherman Serac S3, Bushnell something or other 2xCR123A, and a SwissTech squeezy I hate), or just get rid of them.
I bought a Pelican 1535 case recently to transport my flashlights when I go on trips. It’s super pimp and has an extendable handle and wheels. I feel like if something hits this case and damages the flashlights (sitting in foam) then I probably have other things to worry about! (tree falling on car, richter 9.0 earthquake, etc)
WOW!!! This looks Amazing! Did you build the cases your self? I store my flashlights in Pelican cases but have been wanting to build a shelf case with mirror backing and low level lights to display them. I love the stands you keep your flashlights on!! I have 70 flashlights right now and would like to display them like this. :+1:
