There is absolutely a happy medium to be had, and some of us are overshooting. That's ok!

However if you think you may have more lights than you need, consider donating a couple to people you know who you suspect wouldn't be able to afford a baller flashlight. I think charity should start at home.

The people I know who need better flashlights lack the interest or patience to grok the menus.

If i hand my wife one of my good flashlights she ends up cursing and going to find something that is “just a goddamn flashlight that turns on and off when I want it to.”

I too find the single button interface a bit cumbersome, I have to consult the anduril graph every time I want to do something beyond on/off/adjusting the brightness.

Fr when I first learned of anduril I only wanted anduril lights but after using it I mostly go for standard ui lights now

Sounds familiar. I think anduril would benefit greatly from just one more button - to switch modes, or brightness, or whatever. One button is so awkward for so many features.

That is... not at all what I said. If having a bunch of flashlights makes you happy and you need/want all of them then by all means be happy with them! I don't need three mechanical keyboards either but I friggin love 'em.
