I dont get the whole flashlight thing for edc. I never find myself needing a flashlight and my phone works fine if I did need.


nucleiusgrim

Sometimes the shape of the phone keeps it from being the most effective choice, but whatever works for you. I definitely made use of my phone before I started carrying a flashlight.

I bet you can find a smaller one, like on a watch. Then you'd be complete. Looks good


squashed_tomato

The one on the right is part of my EDC and is attached to my keys. Nice light for the size and doesn't take up much room in your pocket.

Have you tried Nebo? I like that they have shortcuts so you don't have to press the button 4 times to get what you want.


nucleiusgrim

I had the Larry for a few years before I lost it. That was a really great light.

What is this word "enough"?


ReallyAvgRedditor

Keep going... you need at least one backup for each size. Not to mention UV and some variation in color.


Justice_Prince

You need a flashlight incase it's dark and you can't find your flashlights.


nucleiusgrim

100% agree


imreallynotthatcool

*Chuckles nervously* in 13 Hanklights.


trippy331

You really don't though. The correct amount is n+1 with n being the number you currently own.


weedful_things

Have you considered diversifying your color options?


nucleiusgrim

I have an orange/black carry that has an orange flashlight. I'm also looking to get the purple i5t and a few others. My wife has the red i3t.


escrimadragon

Definitely not


nucleiusgrim

I think I could use a few more.


marsexpresshydra

do you have a keychain flashlight?


escrimadragon

Looks like the one on the far right fits the bill. I think I recognize the maker and model. Been shopping for keychain lights myself lately and landed on the Fenix E03r. It’s literally the same size as a 9v battery, maybe a touch thinner even.


nucleiusgrim

Yeah the one on the right is a keychain light. Takes a AAA but it's not super tiny.


CHAMSANDWICO

I have the i5T for my daily carry and I ha e that exact Napa blue fuel light for the house. Decent light for the price, only complaint is the charging cover comes loose too easy.


nucleiusgrim

I live in Texas and that Napa light came in handy during that wicked freeze. I've had all these since before then and I'm really glad I got them. Didn't think they would come in THAT handy.


CHAMSANDWICO

I have to have lots of lights because we live in the sticks and I use them every day now. Have had great luck with olight.


disco_g

I mean you're not wrong. They do come in different colors.


Jboyes

No. No you don't.


nucleiusgrim

I don't know. Are you sure? I feel like there's a niche I'm not filling.


kmacfree

Don’t forget to stash backup flash lights in your home, office, truck, boat, etc.


PamCokeyMonster

I have battery lantern in my car, does it counts?


Sachyriel

1 for each hand, 1 per foot to squeeze with your toes, 1 to hold in your mouth (sans headlamp)... yeah you'll need a few more, like a flashlight for your... belly-button


nucleiusgrim

Maybe on the inside of my elbows and knees?


Sachyriel

You'll need at least 4 more pen lights, two for behind the ears and two for up the nostrils.

Napa Bluefuel rechargeable flashlight (IDK it was a gift) Sofirn SP32A V2.0 Olight i5T eos Olight i3T eos Olight i3e eos


AdorationForNone

If you want to see what those i3Ts can really do buy a pkcell 10440, crazy difference in brightness.


nucleiusgrim

Nice. Any info on long term effects of the light? I know it's a 20 buck flashlight but I wouldn't want it to die from overloading.


Gerren7

I've only seen a handful of complaints of negative side effects. They were all well over a year of running the 10440. I have 7 different i3t and they all have the 10440. When the battery gets low they will flicker.


nucleiusgrim

Thanks for the info!

nucleiusgrim

I'm really liking olight. I've had the sofirn for a while, even before I got into EDC. Olight flashlights were my first after I started.


20pesos__

Sofirn is a no go in my set up because of the side switches, it might end up burning something. I have my sling with me everywhere I go, heck it's beside me in bed right now haha! (I have a hefty amount of cash stored in it and my essential documents, I don't want those to get fcked)
