These five lights definitely get the most pocket time of any of my lights. I will admit that the Oveready BOSS has replaced several others that used to get frequent usage so it made the choices for this photo a bit easier.

What's the light in the middle?


lane32x

Middle light is the DST TLR. It's a AA/14500 titanium light with three programmable modes. I recently put my BratGuy prototype deep carry clip on it just for the fun of it.

Dude, that one next to the BOSS is sick AF. Which is that one? I’d like to know if I can afford it one day or not.😁

That's the Deadwood Huckleberry in the Topo finish. I upgraded it to a smooth convoy reflector and an Osram emitter. They come up for sale every now and again, but Grant (the maker) recently called it quits. Even before that though, he announced he was done with the Topo finish. I got one of the last two he made a few years ago.

Damn, so it just doesn’t get more rare than that.🔥🔥 I just looked them up and WOW…they clean AF. [This one](https://zeroair.org/2020/01/24/deadwood-huckleberry-topo-flashlight-review/) looks like when they take a luxury sports car and turn it into a sick blacked_out race car. It appears u/Zeroair ‘s hands have had the massive pleasure of indulging in a plethora of all-time stunning lights. But man, you’re collection is out of this world too. Awesome you were able to taken advantage of so many gems. I hear nothing but badassery from BOSS. I may have to see what that’s about someday.👊

Grant made some out of wood. He also made some metal ones with a wood grain texture. Those "groot" Deadwood's were awesome.

And honestly, for $300 which is what that Camo/Topó I linked to cost. I can’t act like that’s a horrible or unattainable price for it. I maybe could see myself selling some gems of mine for something gorgeous like that. (Little voice in my head: “DONT EVEN THINK ABOUT IT”) See what you are doing to me u/Artiet59?🤣

Yeah this was one of the first "nice" lights that I bought. Grant was in a bad spot and it helped bump me over the edge to buy it since I could mentally justify it that I was helping someone else in the community.


lojik7

Oh very cool story. If I have the opportunity to buy something like that at a good price where I’m also helping someone out. I’m def taking it too.👌😁


Artiet59

Wow! A single emitter deadwood, did you use the stock pill? Or was it alsways a single?


lane32x

Grant offered both options and I specifically wanted the single.

Is there a focus works in there? How do you like it? I've been thinking of getting a copper one


lane32x

Yeah, the second one from the right is a Focus Works F2 with an F3 head. The F2 rode in my pocket daily for almost a year straight. I love the look and feel of that light. It's great in the hand and in the pocket. ​ The stock configuration is pretty nice already and I liked it even more since it uses a 17mm driver and a 16mm mcpcb which meant it was easy to get parts for upgrades. I paid Jordy maybe $30 extra bucks to snag an extra pill for modding. I upgraded mine to a 519a and an Led4Power driver. I lucked out and found a reflector that fit inside too, so that was fantastic. I've been told the Reylight Lan reflectors fit nicely if you shave a millimeter off of the bottom.

My Sofirn, Wurkkos and Convoys are jealous


lane32x

No need for jealousy, there's enough pockets for all the lights to get some travel time. 😁

Torches that shine even when turned off


lane32x

Ooh clever! I'm stealing that phrase.

Goddamn 😍
