Thank you, kind stranger.
Run while you can. I like to think I am a normal person. But there are so many high performing flashlights and batteries for certain situations that I now have a set of 7 flashlights. They are part of my everyday carry. I have a laser beam flashlight that can reach a nearby island.
7? Psh.
Try 40.
No but seriously, it’s addictive. One moment you’re like “I just need a good flashlight” and the next you’re telling somebody how the flashlight they got from Lowes has terrible tint and CRI compared to your hand-assembled copper and titanium pixel camo Emisar D4v2 with dedomed Nichia 519As you got for like $120 from a Chinese guy named Hank.

I’m going to hate myself for this, but…

This is like the wholesome flipside of prepperism.
It’s like the guys who carry expensive pocket knives everywhere hoping someone will need to cut something.
You haven’t lived until some needs a knife to open something on christmas and 5 of the 6 adult males in your family are just standing there holding their pockets knives for you to choose from.
And then the guys look around & start geeking out over each other’s knives.
I get so aggravated by video games with weak flashlights. Like, we live in an age where my keychain flashlight can light up the nearest mountain.
Your phone can’t put out 4000 lumens

And it never needs to.
Where the heck y’all live where the power goes out so often?
I’m in the middle of the frozen tundra in Canada, we’re powered entirely by renewable energy, we’ve got snow storms, blizzards, floods and some serious thunder storms and I can’t even recall the last time we lost power for any noticeable amount of time. If anything having to reset the clock on the microwave is the only reason I’d know it went out. There’s talk of moving to a smart grid system because ours is dated, so wtf are you people working with?
I do love me a good flashlight though, I’ve got a couple around the house just in case and one in my bag at all times.
Likely Texas, they have a private grid(as far as I last checked) and are prone to rolling blackouts.
I am also in Canada. Our province runs the power grid on coal and sold the utility to a private company that doesn’t bother with the expense of upkeep on infrastructure. They built a sweet skating rink though.
Energy in Canada should be a crown corp. I’ll fight you over that one!
Uh, I agree?
Damn straight you do!
This is like the r/edc guys whipping out their knives at every opportunity or r/guns hoping some day they can justify shooting someone
One of these things is not like the others.
