Nice. :drool:

What's the one between the Thrunite Ti3 and DQG?
You meant the clean looking silver?

Nope, the one short black one next to the Thrunite Ti3, now that I see it in a larger format I'm guessing it's the Nitecore EZ CR2, correct?
yes sir. Thats correct.

Oh boy.  Every time I see brass lights I get all tingly.  I really need to decide on one at some point.

So much shiny goodness.   :pok: see what I did there  :whistle:
Sorry to disappointed you but none of those have made from brass.
There is only 1 copper light in that pic.
The lighting made it look yellow-ish.

I decided to check out lithium rechargeable batteries, so I bought few different cheap flashlights and couple Li-ion chargers along with some lithium batteries last couple of months.
I also bought some usb lights, and they turned out to be pretty good.
Overall, I'm pretty satisfied with lithium batteries, and I managed to get some old laptop battery packs, so I ended up with few unprotected 18650 & 17650 cells.
After checking the flashlights, I started to edc this grey Convoy S2+ flashlight.
Floody light, XML2 T6-4C, runs on one 18650, extremely well built.

Convoy C8, Convoy S2+, Sipik SK68 and SK68 clone:


Nitecore D2, Nitecore UM10 and Miller ML-102 chargers:


Xtar UL1, Xiaomi Mi LED portable usb light, and some Soshine branded usb lights:

Nice

Those USB powered LED lights are really tempting, and are usually very cheap. There are USB plugs everywhere now.

I really must get one, one day.

Great shots maba, especially the side by side with the D25A.  Given you have both, can you say which you prefer?

Similar flashlights and brightness, but I choose Eagletac - smaller, better UI and more fun :D

So.... both are 1xAA, both have tons of modes and cool features... I can't say which one I like more, but I think the 4Sevens is far more "carriable" because of its size.

You should've, they look cool :D But why so many lights of the same type?

Years ago, they (the Ultra M's- milspec) were arguably the best you could get so I bought several and put them in my trouble/gear/camping/packs and later bought backups to those.  Really simple lights, one intensity, waterproof, screw tailcap switch with about a 70 hour runtime. Very simple, durable lights but pretty low output. I call them "personal lights" because for doing simple tasks in the dark like around the house/campsite, they are great. Also, 3 of those are red LEDs that I use when looking at the stars.

Oh, and I maybe, sorta, possibly, in some cases, go overboard on buying spares to my spares of stuff I like....  :D
