Carrying Led Lenser P3 around house on nights now with our newborn as I need some light throughout the night. This is my second one as I lost one a few years ago. I have few other lights as well but this has been my weapon of choice for 8 years, mostly in autumn and winter when it's darker. In summer and late spring there is usually no need for a flashlight for me as phone light is usually adequate. I like the small size and one handed operating of beam/flood

Daily EDC is......

1. Victorinox Signature Lite attached to car keys.
2. Olite i1R2 Pro attached to a Victorinox Compact.
3. Thrunite T1S attached to a Victorinox Farmer......the magnetic base attaches to the back of the knife to make a useful handhold and a right angle lens when needed.

For a good while now, my EDC light has been the Olight Arkfeld with a white light, UV and a truly powerful laser.  Love the magnetic charger too.

The X3 is such a cool light.  I only wish they made it usb-c rechargeable, instead of requiring the proprietary case or base.

Been packing this one quite a little bit lately; Thrunite Saber. Uses a rechargeable 14500 or AA so gives me the "dual fuel" capability I've come to know and love. Two modes - low and high. Pretty bright and easy to carry.

Because the days are become dark (Winter is coming), i did decide to continue carry my Olight Warrior 3 Mini (Blue), as well as the Perun2 Mini ..

Its quite weryd what Olight called "Mini" : The Warrior 3 Mini got about the same Size (and the same Batterie) than the Warrior 2 (not Mini), but the Perun2 Mini is really Mini ^^

As the 2 EDC Pouches in my left Pocket are anoying whitouth another thing in this Pocket i did decide today to go full Flashlight EDC: the Olight Perun3 whit the Head Adapter as an Powerfull Headlight, its fine to carry in an Pouch , but as an Standalone Flashlight its not that good as you scratch the nice blue color when you put this Headband Holder on it ..  , and as allway the Olight Arkfield Pro, nice flat Flashlight whit an Light Toy Feature, its quite interessting to shine UV Light on Stuff to see what happens, and the Laser is allway a nice Toy .. (there are also usefull but i still have to find a use for them)..

I'm giving this one a go - Streamlight Mircrostream USB. It's rechargeable and has two levels; low (about 50 lumens) and high (about 250 lumens), in that order of press on the tail switch. The beam is much more flood-like but I have to keep reminding myself it's not a "tactical" light. I've used it all week and so far haven't had to charge it. I'm really digging the size and ease of carry.

I have a light similar to the Arkfield (Wurkkos) that I usea when traveling.  My dog likes to chase the laser pointer and I use the UV to inspect the hotel room (especially bed) for cleanliness.  Mine also has a sidelight that changes color which works great as a directional light if trying to see something at night without waking others.

The classic Lumintop Tool AAA.
The tool is a well known small reliable light. I have a AA.

I’ve herd good things about StreamLights.  Never purchased one because because I like a third level (~1 lumen).

Can't convey how happy I am to have found my NW Lumintop Frog.  I honestly thought it was lost and gone forever but found it hiding under a chest of drawers.

Even though the Olight Oclip Pro and the Baton Turbo are my latest purchases, I just did decide that I go back to the Arcfield Pro (it's even got an Lazor!!), and the Perun 3 Mini whit Headband, this doesn't mean I don't use the Baton Turbo anymore, its just gets in my Backpack whit the Oclip..

Lights were my first hoarding experience, and I own way too many.  But my primary EDC is the Streamlight Stylus Pro 2xAAA.  It has one output, with a super strong clicky that will not actuate in the pocket.  I have carried these for many years, and they are extremely durable.

My favorite AAA flashlight.

I’ve been eyeing the Arkfeld for a while, but never bought because I don’t like the proprietary charging, but finally gave in.

My favorite AAA flashlight.

Me too. I’ve got quite attached to my one, particularly as its appearance has aged with use (it was the stonewashed titanium finish, now semi-polished and minutely scarred by time in my pocket). It looks much better to my eyes than it did when I got it, and sort of feels like mine.

I’ve been eyeing the Arkfeld for a while, but never bought because I don’t like the proprietary charging, but finally gave in.

That is a pretty cool light. I got kind of put off Olight after I EDCed a stainless steel I3T and the clicky button failed after 6 months. Though I have bought from them since, just not clickies.

I've been carrying the 2xAA Streamlight Junior for a few days.  It has one 225 lumen output, a super simple tail switch UI and for me a strangely appealing countenance.  At 165 mm, most people might consider it a little bit hefty for EDC, but I find it quite doable clipped in my left front pocket.

One from the vaults (back of a drawer).  Jetbeam Jet-1 PRO V3.0.  Still a solid light and has three programable levels.  Deep OP reflector for a reasonable throw.  Top light 15 years ago.  :D

Today was the new Olight ArkPro (Arkfeld with usb-c changing).
