Scary thought, it was 8 years ago since purchasing my last titanium light. Well, I righted that wrong today, and with style too. Here's the latest addition:
And here is the full collection:
They are ordered left-to-right in the order I purchased them, they are:
Maglite Solitaire (I keep this handy to show how far personal illumination has come)
Fenix P1D-CE (not pictured - my first Cree, thought it was lost but found it in a rucksack)
Maglite 2D Roar of the Pelican upgrade with MOP reflector, Pyrex lens and FiveMega 6AA>2D adapter
Lummi Raw Ti (this was my reference LED emitter in terms of colour temperature and rendering until today)
Lummi Wee SS
Surefire E1e with Lumens Factory HO-9 bulb and AW RCR123 cell (original bulb stored safely)
Nitecore MH2C (gift from my previous employer, first LED flashlight I owned to outperform the ROP)
Nitecore HC30 (my most powerful flashlight)
4x 99p Store 9x LED torches (most important torches in my collection, when I get asked to borrow a torch, I give them one of these and it doesn't matter if it comes back)
Nitecore EC11 (this I consider to be the best all-rounder of all of them)
Hugsby Bardic 3-color (curious one this one, the single switch rotates between off>white>green>red by switching different 5mm LEDs, as used at the heritage railway I volunteer at)
McGizmo Haiku Hi-CRI with diamond-etched clip (just playing with this one now)
Missing in Action are:
Cyber-Lite Luxeon 3C light (my first power LED, donated to my brother)
Coast / LED Lenser David 15 (donated to a friend)
Maglite 6D ROP-Lo (donated to heritage railway, doubles as a hammer)
Wee Ti (lost, and technically I didn't buy this one because I was gifted it by Lummi for writing the text for his website before his fall from grace)
Fenix L1T V2.0 (gifted to a friend, loved this interface though)
On the wife's keyring are:
Fenix E01 in purple
Fenix E05 in purple (beautiful tint on this one)
