Did an inventory of all the flashlights around the house and the vehicles. Came up with a dozen, ranging from a 5 cell mag light to a tiny AAA pocket light.The most prevalent was 3 Streamlight Scorpions
This does not inc!use the small USB rechargeables, key ring lights and half a dozen ink pens with flashlights.
I'm sure most of you have more.
 
I worked midnights for over 25 years, so flashlights were a necessity. Now, I still want one near by. I would guess I have 30 or 40 here and there.
 
I haven't counted, but I'm sure I'm in the 12+ range. Heck, I was at Costco a couple weeks ago. They had 3 Duracell 3 AAA flashlights on sale with batteries for $19.99 with $5 off instantly. I got them to have one in the truck (that makes 3 there), one in the tornado shelter AKA Laundry Room and one in my 9 year olds room when scary dreams happen.

I've got well over half a dozen maglites and various off brand "tactical" lights kicking around. I like the fact that in my house you can open a random drawer and find some sort of illumination.
 
I bet we have about 15 around the house for 'just in case.' Then we have our personal lights and some in the vehicles and such. I usually have something recharging, either a light or 18650 battery for a light...
 
-Depends on what you call "flashlights".
I keep about ten regular flashlights of various sizes around the house, cars and job, plus a head lamp, a mini-light that recharges from the cigarette lighter, a number of decorative solar-charged decorative lights - and a bunch of these:

I use these more often than I use regular flashlights - I just hang them from my collar and my hands stay free.
 
I have a couple of older Mag lights and various el cheapos everywhere. I buy those .......$1.00 lights from Wally World and use them. It's cheaper to throw them away than to replace the batteries. My buddy has a Streamlight that I was admiring Wednesday. Thinking of buying some maybe for Christmas gifts. Don't know which one to purchase yet.

Have a blessed day,

Leon
 
Probably have a dozen or more flashlights in various sizes and in various places around the house. Have a Streamlight ProTac 2AA right here next to my laptop!
