cool, yea i got my fw3a off amazon, it was the second light i bought after the thrunite t10 II, before i discovered neals gadgets and others.
I went back and forth with the mf01 mini between 5000k and 4000k (since i knew from my fw3a the 4000k would most likely ne great) but went with output over cct ultimately…
And again 9 months further
I think I have a problem… :person_facepalming:
An acebeam h40, lumintop hl3a, manker e02 II and an ultrafire mc12 on it´s way
You have to admire the addiction 
With all that choice, what have turned out to be your most used headlamps?
Acebeam h60 for sure,ylp panda 2 high cri,fenix hm65r,manker e03 II,skilhunt h03c
On my cycling and working helmet I always use a modded Boruit D10(got severall of them).Because they’re cheap I’m not scared to use them hard 
from left to right, my 90° angle flashlights :
- Manker e02II (not modded yet, pushed by a 10440),
- Sofirn SP40 (18350) with DC-fix ‘mod’,
- Sofirn SP40 (18650) with LED swap : LH351D 4000K,
- Wurkkos HD20 (not modded, yet)
Nice, what are you going to mod with the hd20 and the e02?
Probably simple LEDs swap for warmer tints :disguised_face:

Just got a new Maglite Mini in the mail today in a color I have never seen before. It’s orange like a Cheeto. Love it. Love seeing these huge flashlight collections too. Lots to aspire to.
New member so this is what I’ve collected before joining BLF. I’m kind of guessing that most lights will be well known so I’ll just give the picture:
Actually not complete, it’s missing a Tool AAA with a nice tinted 219b, my sister needed a small light and she found the one with the big button handiest so she can use it.
In these photos it is a part of my collection; I struggled a bit to put them together because normally, apart from the flashlights that are always charged and ready to use, the others are in metal and insulated boxes (Faraday) and my wife doesn’t want me to mess up, so I owed them photograph a little at a time and then put them back where they were.
You quickly realize that I have a collection …. dated, and that is very much in keeping with the spirit of cheap flashlights of this Forum. In the next few hours/days I will add the list with the names and any changes made.

Why do you keep your torches in Faraday cages?
It is a precaution; my collection of flashlights is part of my “emergency warehouse”, where I have a little bit of everything, from food to batteries, from toilet paper to communication tools (Walkie Talkie, flares, etc.).
Each of these instruments is protected in relation to the dangers that can alter its functions.
Flashlights usually have a metal casing, which however is connected to the negative pole and therefore to the electronics and this makes them sensitive to any strong solar storms (Carrington); it is only for this reason that they are inside metal casings, isolated from the walls (in the Faraday cage the electricity is outside, but also inside the metal walls).
Hi wow some of those lights are Beautiful. Can you tell me what are the last 2non the right of the bottom picture, thanks
Considering I have probably over 200 lights, no way I would list them all. I especially have many Astrolux, Sofirn, Olight, Thrunite, Lumintop, Convoy, and Nitecore. It is easier to name brands I do not have any of…Acebeam, Ultrafire, Wurkkos, and Jetbeam to name a few. My main collection actually began with Voidhawk, which were all focus type lights. Most of my lights range from 30 bucks to 300 bucks. My collection is insane, with most stored in large plastic storage containers. My collection of lights are rivaled by my collection of knives, and vape gear. I am unsure which is larger, but in all cases I tend to have way more than 1 of each. I have six Lumintop Tool AA v2 for example and 5 of the Astrolux FT03 SST40-W. My very expensive 200+ dollar lights I have only 1 of. My most used light is the Lumintop tool AA v2. Other favorites are the Astrolux FT03 SST40-W…a great value thrower, and the Lumintop GT micro which has been modified with the Osram led for a rated 809 meter throw. Do not know if it is over stated, but the throw is amazing from such a small light. The even more tiny Nano is good for maybe 10 minutes, but that tiny battery goes quickly. I have 1 of the modified GT micro in aluminum, and 2 in brass…well counting the one purchased but not yet delivered. I really have not counted them all, but I have over 200 for sure. I am not including the cheap throw away lights.

It’s funny how collecting lights has become almost like collecting coins.
