Flashaholics Unite!

Just added another to the collection after watching a video that compared several 21700 lights. It an incredible light with the absolute worst user interface, but once you get past that it’s ridiculous for $20. Has around 800m throw lol. Not really as much of an EDC style light as it’s kind of a tank for its size.

Ok guys, let’s show off the flashlight collections. I know mine is not the biggest but that is because I have bought and given away(some as gifts, others as giveaway prizes on this site) Probly 4 times as much over the years. I know it’s more than I’ll ever need but for some reason I can’t quit collecting them lol. For a while now my favorite brand has been wurkkos due to price to performance but I know there are several fantastic brands out there. How many lights do you have? I know there are some on here that make this look like I’m sane.

Pictured from top to bottom

Acebeam Tac AA 2.0(insanely impressive!) - 900 lumens
Wurkkos TS11 extended - 2,000 lumens
Wurkkos TS28(powerhouse) - 3,200 Lumens
Wurkkos FC12 - 2,000 lumens
Wurkkos FC12C - 1,600 lumens
Wurkkos TS11 standard - 2,000 lumens
Thrunite Catapult Pro(over 1,000 meters throw!) - 2,700 lumens
Hellhound knife - 0 lumens

I have a nite lite, over the toilet, does that count?
Keeps me from peeing on my feet!

An interesting note about the TS28, I ordered 2 Tuesday and they arrived yesterday. I gave one to my buddy(yesterday) that I know uses flashlights every day at his job. He talked to me today and said that he absolutely loved it and it has replaced his nitecore square light he loved and so he tried to sell his nitecore to some coworkers but they all wanted the TS28 lol. He said 4 of his coworkers ordered one today with the link he gave them. Makes me want to put it to use as I’ve only been able to shine it outside for just a few seconds so far.
This is a pretty good video on it. He cycles through the beam levels at 5:38

I bought one, it’s nice. Really bright too. Now I just have to memorize all the button clicks/options lol

So I believe the interface on that one is pretty easy. Turn on and hold down the button to change brightness. Double click for turbo, from turbo you can click 3 times to get strobe, 3 more for sos etc. If you want to change how it changes brightness then click 4 times when it’s on and it will switch to the other mode(it has 2). One mode does stepping up brightness levels and the other mode ramps up and down on brightness. The one that ramps up you don’t need to double click for turbo as it will blink once when it’s on and hits the brightest level. I know reading this sounds like a lot but it’s pretty intuitive and once you do it a time or two it’s super simple.

Ordered one last night. Wondered about the code. Wanted something a bit smaller to pocket carry.

Tried it out last night and was impressed. Left it alone out of the box with low and turbo mode. All I need. Don't need the other modes and especially don't need a strobe.

Don’t need a strobe?! What about all the impromptu rave dances?
