Nope. I wish I could say that was the case; but I seem to have a slightly higher ratio of lights, to guitars (it's about 17 lights to 1 guitar). I only own four guitars (one of them is a P-Bass ).
Sounds like the makings of another thread...
Yes please start a thread. I love the P-bass. I am primarily a bass player.

I just recently lost my TX25C2 light, which I absolutely loved. Here's what's left of my EagleTac lights:
The P20C2 Mk II is amazing. I picked this one up, back in March, and am loving it. It has a bunch of different (proprietary) drop-ins you can switch out. I'd like to try some of them. Right now, it has the stock XM-L2 U2.

My EDCs Left to Right
Thrunite T10 (original - cool white)
Thrunite T10 2014 Edition - neutral white
Nitecore EA11
Solarforce L2P with Sportac Triple Nichia 219 2-mode)
Solarforce L2N with custom Erik Kress XM-L 7C 5-mode (extremely warm output) - I don't always carry this one. The other five - yes.
Bottom - EagleTac P20C2 MKII
Sometimes, I'll add a Fenix E50, or others, depending on the need (usually bag-carried). At work, I only pocket-carry the P20C2 MkII (dress code requirement - no more than 1 holstered item, which is my iPhone; and no cargo pockets :-( ; but the others are always in a bag, close-at-hand, so I'm never without my lights :P

I picked up an RRT-1, a while back, which is very cool, with the control ring (detented low, medium, high, strobe). It's not exactly super compact, though , but it does have a very nice super-concentrated spot beam, with generous spill, as well. The build quality seems pretty respectable, which is one reason I'm even considering another Jetbeam.
The only other Jetbeam I ever owned was their RRT-0, which was amazing; but I lost it, just a day or two after receiving it in the mail :-(
The new WL-S4 arrived, some months ago. What a powerhouse of a light (2600 emitter lumens - probably more like 2200 OTF) - and beautiful MT-G2 tint, on top of that :-). Not too surprised, with that ginormous reflector. Very nice light. I only wish I had bought more .

This Nitecore EA11 is the smallest, most powerful 14500 light I own. Running on an IMR, it produces 900 OTF lumens - amazing, for something of its size and battery platform. Run times aren't the greatest, but small trade-off.

david57strat how many flashlights do you think you own?
Exactly 70 - all ready to go, with fully-charged batteries (I'm anal, that way). Actually, it'd be 71, if I had a host for a UV drop-in that's floating around there ; and I hate odd numbers, so I'm looking for another light, to end up with a nice even 72.
I haven't purchased a light in over a month (It was the Nitecore HC50 headlamp), so I'm long overdue . Will probably hit the 100 mark, by year-end
Damn, I need another shelf, and a much larger EDC bag :|
