Do you always carry a flashlight or only at night?

[blah9]

I'm the same here. People walk in and immediately turn on the lights whereas I like the sunlight coming in through the windows. Oh well.

Since I anyways carry a Fenix PD35vn triple XPL it has come in handy a lot lately, even during the daytime. Cleaning out rooms and looking in crawlspaces was made much easier with that light and some others I had with me over the weekend. In particular the Armytek Wizard Pro Warm was very handy to be able to work with both hands.

I carry my flashlight with me 24/7 day or night. You'll never know the situation when you might need it.

This.

I always have at least two lights on me unless I'm walking a block away to get something to eat. Though often, it's closer to 4 or 5. Even in bright daylight, I've found I need a good light.

Sometimes I just like to walk the neighborhood in broad daylight with a flashlight and wave at the neighbors, usually in tactical pajamas.

(REDACTED)Wife comes home, or boss enters room I'm in...and immediately flip on a light switch saying something like "why have you got it so dark in here?"
I respond "Thomas Jefferson didn't need a light on, neither do I."

+1, I love your response.

I once told my wife that I work with a bunch of cats. No light can be turned off. No door or drawer can be left unopened.

Always.

Love it!! Can I use that?



Recently I noticed when somebody says "got a light?" I reach in my pants pocket for my HP1 instead of my shirt pocket for a cigarette lighter.

Yeah, I think Ima flash-a-holic.

I have carried a flashlight with me every single day for the past four years, and I'm never going back.
I used to subscribe to a minimalist mindset, but I've since gone the other way a little. You'll usually find me wearing a pair of 5.11 Taclite Pro pants, or shorts. I have my keychain set up in such a way that I can grab it, and it alone and be good to go. I find myself using a flashlight at all times of the day. Try it, and then try to go back.

Of course. That what this group is for, sharing. :thumbsup:

Just started carrying a light while riding the RZR in the desert.

Anytime I leave the house I have a Surefire E1d or a Surefire C2 bored with a Nichia triple made by Tana. And while at work I have a 18650 Hound Dog on my belt and the E1d as my backup. I always find a use for my lights during the day.

 

[Gturetzky]

I usually at least have a mini with me except when I travel, then
it is in my pack

This thread needs a poll!

I always have my keychain light whenever I leave the house, its main purpose is to help my find my other lights or a light switch in a panic, secondary purpose is a backup light for small things, especially to find my main light when I drop it, or to help see to change batteries in the main light.

Almost everyday I use a flashlight indoors where there are no windows and the light's out, or when getting behind cracks etc. Even during the day flashlights are good for self defense. I usually carry a primary light, one with good flood, and when I know I will be going into the night I carry a more throwy light for outdoor use, this is my secondary light. This is all multiplied when I carry multi tools and things that have lights, as well as having a light on the hook on the inside of my backpack, and when I ride my bike for transportation, that ads the headlight to that-of which I always have a back up light, the secondary, that I put in my pack, so total I can have 3 good strong lights, plus2-3 weak lights to aid when a strong one goes out or when it is too much light etc.

Ugh I thought this thread died, and I was safe from getting "maneater" stuck in my head every time I see the title.

 

[Tixx]

Always have one with me. Either in pocket, around neck, or in the backpack.

 

[B0rt]

Carrying only one flashlight? Pretty Alien concept
I have at least three, sometimes many more (six at the moment), flashlights on me or within 3" of my person 24/7

 

[PoliceScannerMan]

Always have one on me and a McG Sapphire on my keys.
