Wow thanks for the info Warubozu and Warpdriver. Now I'm really wondering what would be the SR60's or the KSC-35's if you like, of the flashlight world.
(I'm sure these questions are quite funny for some lurkers. Imagine what it would be like to start lurking in an unfamiliar techie forum, let's say Nuclear Reactor geeks, and see a post about Headphones -a foreign techie world for them, but familiar to us- along the lines of : "So what's the Plutonium XDH-99 chamber plus" of the headphone world?" and we headfiers would have absolutely no clear idea what they were really asking about )

The flashlight of the year for flashlight fanatics is the Fenix. Works off normal AA/AAA batteries, small, high quality and relatively affordable ($30-45). The common term flashaholics use is EDC (Everyday Carry).....and the Fenix is the one to get for that purpose. If you go to the forum, you'll see a lot of excitement for this flashlight
Yall see how funny flashlight forum seems next time you need to visit the outhouse 3am....what you gonna take with you ......yer grados or a 12 volt dualbulb maglight ?

I too got a Fenix flashlight from the source warpdriver linked to (thanks warpdriver!). Highly recommended for a small LED flashlight. Way brighter than I need, but hey it is the flashlight of the year at candlepowerforum! I use mine primarily to browse for CDs at night (I listen in the dark!). No annoying dead spot in the middle. The fenix is also small enough to fit in my pocket; very handy when going out at night etc. I was really surprised how bright this little flashlight is even compared to my full size D-cell cheapo flashlight.
One advice is to ask the seller to check the flashlight before shipping. Just let the guy know that this is your first "real" flashlight. Some candlepower members (one member?) have reported receiving a bad unit, so just ask the seller to check before shipping.
Do those sites have a Top 5 flashlights that they recommend after reviewing? Otherwise how are newbies supposed to know which ones to get unless you read ALL reviews

You could say the same thing about headphones. There will NEVER been agreement as to which are the top 5 headphones.
I remember there was an article in Life magazine a few months ago about vacuum collectors, evidently there are a number of people with 100s of vacuums in their collection, and there are meets too. I thought it was a pretty interesting article since I found it so strange, different strokes for different folks as they say
