Mine must be put together with Loctite as I can't get it apart and I don't want to mar the finish with pliers.

My latest in an Acebeam H16. What a lovely little light (and it is little) runs off one AA battery. The version I bought is 650 lumens, but a 1000 lumen version is also available.

I liked that it doubles as a head torch.

Acebeam does make some nice lights.  Their TK16 was my first Acebeam and it is one of the smallest 16340 lights I’ve owned.  Their Rider Rx is also a fun light.

I will have a look at them. The H16 is my first Acebeam and I am very impressed with the build quality.

Nothing special compared to most of the lights here, but I got another “free” olight i3e today. Kind of a fun color scheme.

Wurkkos TS23, WK03, and FC11
Wuben C3 and E7 :cheers:

I had the Led Lenser i9 CRI as my heavy duty, belt carry flashlight, and then I see it's only 300 lumen. And all my others are small, mostly pen-lights. Nothing fancy. Nothing too bright. I carried the Coast HP1 a lot for the flashlight challenge and it's only 180 lumens I think, and it's fine.
I have a good Led Lenser headlamp. I should carry it more. No sheath though.

So I wanted something more powerful than the Led Lenser i9. A friend at work showed me his brand new Olight Prowess. 5000 lumens, lantern mode, holster. Now that's a flashlight.

So I spent a few hours online looking at reviews and checking what was available and on sale for Amazon Peime Day.

So the TS23 will be my big bright light. The E7 is short and right-angle. The others are mid-range, fine on a belt, pocket, or pouch.

Picked up a couple of new ones the first is an Olight Swivel COB work light (1100 lumens) and the second is a 'made under licence version of the Olight COB 400 Work Light.. I am very pleased with both. The Swivel is for use around the town and the 400 lumen version for travelling and in the car.

Nitecore NWL20 work light. On offer at £23.99 (under half price). It tried to convince myself that I bought it due to the replaceable battery allowing an extended lifespan but, of course, I saw it and just couldn't help myself  :facepalm:


It is actually a very good work light.

I've been carrying and using my Thrunite Saber for about a month now. I haven't found anything the dislike about it yet! The run time on the rechargeable 14500 has been amazing (I've charged it once in that last month and it apparently didnt need it) and the light checks all the boxes for me :tu:

Wurrkos TD04

Quality isn’t quite as good as some more expensive options, but seems to be functional.  And for $30 (including battery), it has a surprising number of features that I look for in a primary carry light.

Honestly, I'm pretty darn sure that (except for maybe the i3EOS Ultraviolet), all of  my  i3T and i1R were either free, or purchased to get something for free.

Love the  color  on that one!

I got one the other day, mine was a freebie too. The colour is rather fun. I actually rather like it but due to its small size I had to put a zipper pull on it to prevent ti slipping through my fingers  :D

First new torch in quite a while.  Fenix E03r V2.0.  First impressions are solid.  Simple enough UI and decent mode spacings.  Loses a mark for only being able to access the red light AFTER you turn on the main, and often bright. white LEDs.  Seems to be some debate as to it's size on a keyring but, for my money, it's just fine.

First new torch in quite a while.  Fenix E03r V2.0.  First impressions are solid.  Simple enough UI and decent mode spacings.  Loses a mark for only being able to access the red light AFTER you turn on the main, and often bright. white LEDs.  Seems to be some debate as to it's size on a keyring but, for my money, it's just fine.
Fenix makes some nice lights although I never tried that one.

I got one the other day, mine was a freebie too. The colour is rather fun. I actually rather like it but due to its small size I had to put a zipper pull on it to prevent ti slipping through my fingers  :D
Olight does run some nice deals

It is a nice quality light.  With the moving sleeve/clip, it has a great fidget factor

I like the idea of a light that is also a fidget "toy".  :tu:

Got a few of these on sale before the holidays and they are pretty impressive!

I got a few in white emitter and a few in 519C which is a great warmer tint.

Rechargeable plug in jack on body and just a well made light especially for the price.
I have several Headlamps from them too and they have been rock solid.

They are a well made brand especially for the price.  I have a couple headlamps and a flashlight as well.

I've always been put off by magnets in a EDC light.  As someone who tends to pocket everything I imagine them getting stuck to keys, coins, knife etc. :shrug: Am I overthinking this?

Not sure, but I feel the same way.

YMMV, but I actually don’t find magnets on flashlights terribly handy, period.  If I were an auto mechanic or worked in building maintenance, perhaps I would feel differently.

Yeah, that's kind of my position as well.  I have to try and think of scenarios where the magnet might be useful to me and I can't think of many (if any at all).

I'm sure there are people who use them all the time, but it's not me. 

If they made them optional or removable there are quite a few lights I might have bought, so perhaps my wallet is a bit better off. :D

Not been a problem for me but I dont keep them in the same pocket with anything else.
I could see that being an issue though.
