My EDC is a Fenix LD12 also. I like the types that can use a single AA, since those are a lot easier to come by than the usual other types, and I carry several Eneloops and a solar powered battery charger around in my emergency kit.
 
I got the Goal Zero one, which charges a battery pack. You can charge 4 AA's, either by solar or by USB, making it very versatile. Similar price range, but a lot more flexible than many of the other options.

Love the Eneloops, fantastic battery with a long life.
 
So this maratac made it to my door. This is a beautiful little copper light that has a nice bright beam from a single AAA. It's replaced my fenix E01 as my new EDC. Can't wait to see what kind of patina shows up over time.

I got three I switch up in my edc.
The fattest one is a Led Lenser T7.2, 320 lumen on high. Don't really need any brighter 'cause I find the super bright lights a bit annoying and find that they take away detail because of their brigthness.
The long, thin one is a Streamlight Protac 2AAA. Very happy with this light. Disappears in a inner pocket of a jacket or the like and throws a nice, useful beam.
The small one is a Streamlight Microstream C4, newest edition. Because you can't not have a streamlight microstream.

Came across a nice sale by chance. Picked up this Surefire 6P for a shade less then 1/3rd of the normal cost. 6
 
I always have a Fenix E12 on me with an Eneloop battery in it. Before that it was a Fenix E11. Both have proven to be very good flashlights.

They look great with a bit of color. I need to snap a current shot of my AAA. My daughter seems to have misplaced my AA Cu Maratac - Not Amused! She also misplaced her karate shoes, and they turned up last night. So there is some hope for my light, and my wallet...

Love the 6P. Any plans for a powerful light engine?
 
Surefire has high prices and low lumens but there is just something about them...
 
Supposed to have been some Maratacs rather than the horse, but I kind of like the horse pic.

misplace the charger to her phone, see how fast that flashlight shows up :)

as a kid, if i misplaced something, it usually meant i had to beat my brother, or one of his friends, to find out where it went. usually sold for pot money. a little farm boy violence, i got my stuff back. most of the time. destroying a few bits of their stuff was most satisfying on the occasion when i didn't. nobody said nothing :D
 
It took me so long to get a Thrunite Archer that they came out with an updated version during my purchasing period. My Thrunite Archer 2A V2 is in! I had been a Maglite fan for years, but decided to see what this "tactical clicky" business is all about. Also featured is my former favorite, my Maglite Mini LED AA.

Note the new side button. This model flashlight is new, but this side button is newer compared to what you'd see on the models in youtube reviews.

Everyone posted pics with lights and watches, so I thought I would too.

Guyon, looks like you've got it all covered. In addition to the range of illumination products, I really like your micarta beckers!

What features do you look for in a head lamp?
