You know you’re an FlashAholic when…

… You’re having withdrawal symptoms waiting for February 8 to arrive.

…when you pick up one light to look for a specific light, then swap that one for a better one for the job while still looking.

What’s on the 8th?

Just filling up my wishlist on the Convoy Shop since I can’t put the stuff in my cart.
Would be nicer to be able to handle the cart but not be able to actually buy, but I don’t know if that is even possible.

When your kids tell you you’re identified in their friends-group as “the flashlight guy”.

Or gal, or whatever ones case may be.

…you can’t make it through the day without some flashohol.

You’re seriously considering buying a light (or three) not because you need them or because the light themselves are better or sometimes even new…
you just want a light with that classic emitter, obscure emitter, unique TIR, or other design because you don’t have one.

…when you buy multiples of the same f’n light because of different color ano, bare/“clear” ano, Ti, Cu, brass, etc.

1 Thank

…you look at your flashlights trying to decide which one to use next, and you keep looking at them contemplating CCT, CRI, lumens, etc., :thinking:

and thinking about the last time you used them, and still struggling to make a decision since you have so many great ones to choose from, :face_with_spiral_eyes:

and then finally deciding on one, happy with your choice, also knowing that you can pick another one again soon. :grin:

You know you are a flashahaulic when you routinely buy lights thinking you dont have them, when you actually do.

2 Thanks

Damn. I have purchased a few light models in every available color.

When you’ve been off the forum for a few weeks and buy some new lights and when they come in you realize that you already have them.

When you see the light at the end of the tunnel and you don´t want to die, because your relatives will sell your flashlight collection for too less money… :smiley:
