I’ll never forget. She asked me why I was carrying that flashlight and I said “hey, the power might go out.” Well har-dee-har, what a blinking genius I am ;)

LED flashlights are very small and bright these days. Gun Talk Radio is great as well. Their podcasts, 3 hours a week on Sundays and old shows can be listened to on the web. Guntalk Radio is the search word.

I carry an LOD-CE single AAA light, on my key chain.

The newer version is the LOD1 XP-G (R4).

I has 5 brightness, and battery life settings, 26 lumens (3hours, 8 minutes), 3 lumens (27 hours), and 72 lumens (1hour 28 minutes, flashing, and SOS.

The light is regulated to give the same brightness during the life of the battery.

You have to tell us which light you carry.

A small keychain LED light makes a nifty bore inspection light too. ☺

The LED flashlights have really come a long way in the last few years. You can get a small pocket size flashlight now, that puts out 120 lumens, only uses one AA battery and costs around $50.

Well you are indeed one bright fellah and maybe that’s what sparked her interest in you....

I bought one too after listening to a prepper. But the last time I thought *I* was a genius, I realized that the episode of Jeopardy I was watching I had seen before.

How about a serious flashlight? A 860 lumin Phenix, can be found for about $100. This one will light my front yard like a stadium.
