Collection so far. At least until my package gets here

Got my first light last Christmas and it’s been such a fun time getting all these. Sofirn IF30 should be here any day!

Collecting is always weird to me.

- Well yes, but this is an internet forum for flashlights. That’s pretty weird too.

  Sure but flashlights are functional for me, not a collector piece. Each one I have serves a purpose. I think I have six including a UV light. I could see myself getting two more to fit missing utility, but that's it.

I can see you like Anduril! Except for the wurkkos ts12.

How do you like the brass ts10? Seems like a great value and is on my list to potentially get.

Sticking with the 14500-theme, my first hank light might be a D2 if I can settle on an emitter combo.

- Yo this sub is weird and beautiful. Shine on you crazy flashlight loving bastards.

- I’m such a tinkerer that not having all that control stresses me out. If the TS12 had a less ugly LED and Anduril I would carry it everyday. It’s so much fun.
  
  Honestly I haven’t carried the brass one much. It’s really nice I just like the copper one much more. For the price it’s an absolute steal though. Plus you can get it in 3k.
  
  My white D2 is a 519a 5700k/2700k dedome combo with floody optics. And the green one is 3500k and green with spot optics. If I had to get 1 more honestly I’d probably get 519a/w1. I think flood/spot is the most practical.

  Late reply but now I realize they should have just made a 14500 version of the ts11, even without aux sft40 or W1 would have been neat with this host.

  I recently bought my first Hank, a D2.. its a fun little light.. more details in this album: https://imgur.com/a/vXeGC1t
  
  I also have a couple of TS10, and I really like them too. Here is an album w one of mine, modded to sw45k: https://imgur.com/a/KMuvsRP I will probably buy the Titanium model next.

  Thanks! I’ve seen some of your great posts and LED swap mods on BLF. These are well-photographed, something which is more difficult than I realized once I tried taking some photos of lights, with phones being so good now at taking pics of people and landscapes.
  
  I do have a ts10 in the rotation (plus two extras from when Terry from Wurkkos said the anodized colors were being discontinued) and it is as good as everyone says, although I only like it in 5700k.

I guess I can ask you since it's always been in the back of my mind: if I wanted an extremely bright but small LED flashlight, which one should I get?

- How small? How bright? Also this is very useful for finding stuff by filters: http://flashlights.parametrek.com/index.html

Any thing that is ir and a regular light? Been looking to replace my lost olight.

- Emisar D2 can be ordered with UV on the second emitter. Pictured 2nd and 4th from bottom left in OP’s photo but those all look like visible light emitters.
  
  It’s a much smaller brand than Olight so keep that in mind if you’re looking for something with more mass market appeal.

  Right I ment UV not ir.
  
  That sounds like the setup I am looking for thanks I will check it out!

- Not yet. Olight is one of the few doing stuff like that.

Nice collection! Is the purple light on the wall from a UV? Is it a D2?

2
- That’s all from the TS11 aux lights actually! They’re stupid bright and I love it. No UV light yet. Can’t decide.
  
  Love your diffusers man! Also your D2 headband clip has been very helpful on the job.
