Most definitely! Can't go without the latest on such an expensive purchase hehe...also got a blue trit marker.

I'm looking forward to the Surefire E1X and E2X (cree versions of E1L/E2L). They were shown off at SHOT Show 2007 during the Surefire party (beamshots below). Hopefully they'll be out sometime in March.

Another plug for the Arc-P. I finally got one of these beauties six months ago to replace the MagLite Solitaire that had been riding in my pocket for five years. Having a flashlight at hand is practical, and not just when your eyes tank. The Arc-P is beautifully designed and crafted, tiny but powerful. The LED should never burn out or break and the circuitry keep the thing bright throughout the battery's life. $40.00USD no longer seems like a lot of money for a pocket light, even to an original cheapskate.

Yeah, I'm going to be picking up one of those. My DMini is my stopgap so I don't have to hold my breath for Surefire to deliver something (may be still hard to find for a long time even after release)

Yes it's beginning to appear that way. I keep hearing about delays on CPF. I think I'm going to buy an E1E and stick the high powered Lumens Factory incandescent bulb in it, then get the official Surefire cree head attachment when it comes out.

SHOT Show. For a second I thought "wow, the flashlight forum folks already have their own meets going on, nice! uh, "Single-beam, Halogen, Optics Trade Show?"
Then I googled it. It's the "Shootin' Huntin' Outdoors Trade Show!" Aw man, piggybackin' offa a bigger deal...DOH.
Come to think of it, how come we head-fiers have our own Can meets? I mean really, are those Home Theatre guys really that bad? I know a few of us do go to the CES and Stereophile shindigs too. We should all get along too, it's all about the music after all!
someone should market a headlamp that can clip right to the brim of a baseball cap. hey, it worked for flipup shades on glasses and rollerblades in sneakers, so why not headlamps?
Ok, so now I know what all of my friends are thinking when I start talking about headphones... OMG, this world is big enough to play host to flashlight nuts?
Couldn't have said it better myself!
SCARY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
