They have their place, but it’s not my preference for EDC

Tailcap switch could be nice, but I haven’t missed having one.

My SureFire has a tailcap switch and it would keep getting turned on in my pocket.

It’s a personally owned light, not medical equipment. And, I also can use it on moonlight mode to check pupils, works better than the lights we are given.

And, why carry a big light if a small light can do the trick? I have a bigger light (noctigon K1) with a 1 mile throw, I can’t lug that around in my pocket.

I mechanically lock out the light in my pocket so it doesnt accidentally get turned on. It’s my choice to carry a light with those capabilities, it’s also not that dangerous…

I have two D cell maglites, I give them to the kids when they need a flashlight so they dont start a fire with my light, or lose an expensive one.

Used to EDC one of those. Switched to an Emisar D4DV2, it’s way better.

It’s really nice when working ambulance and trying to work a patient at night. I’m able to illuminate the scene well enough that everyone can see.

Have also lit up yards while looking for patients/hazards.

I know reddit=evil but, r/hanklights is a good starting place for anduril lights. I’ve been EDCing the D4V2 for seferal years now and love it.

Armorsuit protectors have worked well for me on s21 and s22 phones. Might be worth trying.

I function best at 750mg-1g of caffeine… actually lowers my reading heart rate.

It’s about $80/month each for me. I’ll usually keep two deactivated while they are parked in the barn. I’ll have two active, and the other two are either waiting for me to repair them, or waiting till the other two break down. Sucked that one time I had three down at the same time…

I’ve had good luck using permethrin as a bug repellant instead of a clothing treatment.

I used a sapphire. I’m a ceramic engineer, and sapphire is just alumina, so I think it’s cool, and you can get basically any color you want.

I have updated my comment to direct to a comment from @weststadtgesicht that is more accurate.

Lee Strobel (former athirst, investigative journalist) wrote a book titled The Case For Christ.

His goal was to write the difinive work on proving that Jesus wasn’t who the Christians claim him to be. It backfired on him and he became a Christian.

(See below comment from @weststadtgesicht with a more accurate quote.)

If you’re wanting to read more on this topic, definitely read both sides and determine which has the stronger case. But the Strobel book seems to be well researched and well written, at least to me.
