FPCH Admin allheart55 Cindy E Posted February 19, 2015 FPCH Admin Posted February 19, 2015 I use these all of the time when I'm working inside of a computer tower.

Rich-M Posted February 19, 2015 Author Posted February 19, 2015 Yep me too I even have one with a headband but it is so damn clumsy to aim, easier to put one of these in my teeth (for as long as I have them)! I have them in all shapes and sizes but this one could be better with flood or spotlight...drawback is 3 AAA batteries as most have one AA battery! 1 Quote
FPCH Admin allheart55 Cindy E Posted February 19, 2015 FPCH Admin Posted February 19, 2015 :big_ha:I do the same thing. All of mine take 3 AAA batteries. 1 Quote ~I know that you believe you understand what you think I said, but I'm not sure you realize that what you heard is not what I meant.~ ~~Robert McCloskey~~
N3 Posted February 20, 2015 Posted February 20, 2015 (edited) A former hobby of mine for years was flashlights. (Narrowed it down to 18 that i kept) Unfortunately i had to stop because i invested too much money in them. One of many flashlights i recommend is at the bottom of this reply but not necessarily from that seller. I also recommend "Energizer Ultimate Lithium" batteries. Alkaline batteries though cheaper may leak & ruin the flashlight and/or other devices. I'm also a member of a flashlight forum that goes indepth concerning the variety of flashlights & batteries. The above flashlight i recommend can be held with one's lips, never teeth. Try not to get a black flashlight. Black may "look cool" but a silver, gold, red, green or purple one is easier to locate when placed on a table etc. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Fenix-E01-LED-Waterproof-Mini-Torch-Flashlight-Gold-Color-New-/291134589380?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item43c8f949c4 http://www.candlepowerforums.com/vb/forum.php Edited February 20, 2015 by N3 1 Quote
Rich-M Posted February 20, 2015 Author Posted February 20, 2015 Just when we think we know you, another wrinkle appears.....I am no collector but I do have quite a few of these also. This is my current favorite: http://www.amazon.com/power-DP-024AACR-C-Aluminium-Flashlight-CR123A/dp/B00GLS4QHS/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1424404567&sr=8-1&keywords=depower+flashlight The best ones I have are " "Streamlight"'s like this one: http://www.homedepot.com/p/Streamlight-ProTac-2-AA-Black-Flashlight-88033/202872679?N=5yc1vZc23tZ47i 1 Quote
N3 Posted February 20, 2015 Posted February 20, 2015 My #1 interest in flashlights is for "Emergency Preparedness". We do have power outages in florida as well as potential hurricanes. The majority of my flashlights are purposely low output for less battery consumption. I'm not interested in lighting my neighbors house from my house. I also have flashlights that take different size batteries. Whenever there is a major inclimate weather prediction many people will go to walmart etc. & stock up on batteries. It's a good idea to have flashlights that use batteries that the majority of people 'Do Not' purchase! My #2 interest in flashlights is my bicycle. I have a red flasher in the rear & a white flasher and/or continuous beam in the front. Rich....My main keychain flashlight is the single aaa Streamlight. The little brother to the one you have.

Rich-M Posted February 20, 2015 Author Posted February 20, 2015 I actually have the one you are describing as well N3. My first acquisitions started when I thought I had lost my main one so I bought 2 more and then found the original. The long pen like one I had took 3 special batteries that were a fortune because they were really small, but they lasted almost a year with constant use whereas these alkaline batteries, and most of them I have take 1 AA battery I get about a month out of. I would have gotten a battery charger and lithium batteries except the AA are so cheap theses days. I think I just bought 48 of them for $14.99, some crazy brand (AC Delco) but they last as long as the Dura Cell batteries do. Quote
DSTM Posted February 20, 2015 Posted February 20, 2015 I use these cheapie lcd torches all the time. $1.50 at chinese variety shops here. They are throw away when flat as the batteries cost more than the torch. I buy 6 at a time. Brilliant for working inside Computers. Great for finding your way in the dark to raid the fridge late at night. :big_grin: 1 Quote Roses are red, violets are blue, I'm Schizophrenic, and so am I Free Photo Restoration and Repair for all Forum members - CLICK HERE Please pop back and let us know if your Computer problem has been solved.
