I didn't know you were such a spelunker. Then again I should have realized you are a Yetti and have an affinity for mountains and the caves they hold.

I suspect, like most pilots, you have a flashlight fetish. I can't go to Costco without pickup up a new flashlight. 

Uh, what guy doesn't have a flashlight fetish?

Could explain how you got me to buy $1,500 in light bulbs.

Hey I spent about that same amount (slightly less since I'm a negotiator) as you did.

Yes, I do too. However, I have bought a bunch of cheap flashlights that look good, but fail shortly thereafter. I have sworn to only buy good flashlights now.

So much goodness.  http://www.dx.com/c/lights-lighting-1399/flashlights-1307/led-flashlights-1360

I carry a 950 lum from several years ago in the plane.  I could use if for a landing light if needed.

Looks like they are brighter these days.

Same here. I have moved onto Streamlight although I still like some of the Coast products.

Both are good, with excellent warranties; neither are inexpensive, so watch for sales. LED flashlights now are blindingly bright.
