You guys keep going and post suggestions pics...

I'm still carrying the Case Barlow. I've tried the Vic. Cadet yesterday but grabbed the Barlow again today  :dunno:
 
Anyhow, while I stumbled over my old trusty but neglected 3D Maglite due to the "Everything goes" challenge, I'm determined to overhaul it to make it more usable again, it has sentimental value to me.

It's 24 years old, technically it's fine but dim compared to my small pocket torch.
Even with the 140lumens LED replacement bulb I've put into it ages ago.

I'll see what I can come up with for it, so no money for more trads at the moment. Barlow, Mini Trapper, Sodbuster and Svörd Peasant will have me covered until then  :salute:

I like the colored lenses. That was the main reason I liked the military issue goose neck lights.  :cheers:

Excellent selection, Matt.

If I were no tin the Explorer challenge, the Barlow would definitely be getting extra pocket time!  :tu:

Well, it was a good challenge and a good thread.  :like:

I'm enjoying the Explore challenge, but I do find that I'm missing this one a bit.

Agree. The Explorer provides more creative uses, but the eye candy of the Traditionals was on another level.

For your Maglite, check out Malkoff Devices.  He has drop-ins that produce 325 or 700+.  They do require modding of the reflector or buying one of his modded reflectors.

That's great to hear.  I have 2, a 3 cell and a 5 cell, from work that I like but just can't compete with the newer flashlights in their current configuration.
