Cool!
I don’t hear about the 480nm wavelength very often, so I’m thinking that it’s kinda rare. :slightly_smiling_face:

I’m still longing for some XEG boards, last I looked, CREE claimed their XEG line had most colour options!

… you make it a point to always have a torch in the shower or toilet should the power go out.
… you find yourself selecting a torch most suitable for checking the amount of potatos in the cupboard when making a shopping list.

Yeh, I got one of those double-decker zipper cases that were viponned ages ago…

I think all those cables are having sex in there and pooping out more cables.

I got a USB cable tester and anything that doesn’t have data lines connected or flickers the test LED the tiniest bit when handled roughly gets unceremoniously ripped and tossed. Keeps the cable basket in check!

When you’re afraid of storing them all in one place, and the reason why changes over time. At first you’re afraid of something happening to them (all your eggs in one basket sort of thing). As your addiction worsens, you’re afraid of your spouse finding them. And finally, when you’re a true flashaholic, you’re afraid to see them all in one place because then you’ll know just how bad it has become.

When you are forced out of the closet because you need more room for your lights.

When they pull you over in the middle of the night and you tell the LEO’s: That’s not a flashlight. THIS is a flashlight (ZAP).

When you classify you lights with certifications like PG, …, XX

You have all the lights you need, yet you can’t seem to find the one light that fits the only non existent void.
