Hello everyone,

While organizing my flashlight collection recently, I realized that December 17, 2025 was the day I purchased my very first flashlight, a Convoy S21G TiCu. It's now been about six months since I entered this hobby, so I thought it would be a good opportunity to look back at what I've collected so far.

Current Collection

Cloud Defensive

• Cloud Defensive MCH HC

Convoy

• Convoy S21G
• Convoy T4

Emisar

• Emisar D2

HDS Systems

• HDS Rotary 18650

Loop Gear

• Loop Gear SK-05 Pro2

McGizmo

• McGizmo Haiku
• McGizmo Sapphire 3200K

Novatac

Olight

Prometheus Lights

ReyLight

• ReyLight Pineapple Mini Zirconium

TrustFire

Looking back, I think I've acquired quite a lot in just six months, especially considering I started as a complete beginner. Because of that, I'd like to slow down a bit and focus more on actually using and enjoying the lights I already own.

Current Wishlist

1. CWF Mini ARC
2. Malkoff E2XTL V3
3. SureFire EDC2-DFT
4. Olight Oclip Ultra

These are probably the only lights I'm actively planning to add in the near future, and even then I'll likely pick them up gradually rather than all at once.

Before I take a break from collecting, though, I'd love to hear your opinions. Looking at my current collection and wishlist, is there any flashlight that you feel is a "must-have" or fills a niche that I'm still missing?

I'd appreciate any recommendations or thoughts. Thanks!
