You are remarkably consistent in your recommendations Jerv!
I don’t know how it happened but somehow now I have two TS10s on the way… I must have blacked out or something.
Thanks for the suggestions for SAR lights! Here is my stable so far!

So I came here a little while ago asking for suggestions to replace my
streamlight that I lost… As you can see, I have made some upgrades. My primary
use case is for search and rescue but I now have some nice EDC lights too! Left
to right: Sofirn IF22A - Nice powerful thrower that doubles as a battery backup
for my phone/GPS when on a callout. Olight Warrior Mini 3 - My go-to multi
purpose light, the tail switch is super handy and feels nice. I don’t care for
the crenelated bezel but I wanted the throw over the more floody Baton. Skilhunt
M150 V3 - This lil guy lives in my pocket all the time now. This is the high CRI
version and to my eyes is the nicest light for up close work. The moonlight mode
is also the dimmest which is important to me. Nice build quality and UI as well.
Olight Perun 2 Mini NW - New light for my helmet, I haven’t tested it in the
field yet but the beam is nice and it’s a big improvement over my old black
diamond light on my helmet. Olight iR2 Pro - not much to say on this one, it was
the free gift with my other Olights, it lives on my keychain now, it’s pretty
handy with the USB C charging and two modes. Lumintop IYP365 - This is the light
to replace my streamlight stylus. It lives on my chest pack and is primarily
used for first aid. The low mode is low enough that I feel comfortable using it
for checking pupil dilation. The included diffuser is handy too. I got the
NiteCore MT06MD but I found it uncomfortably bright on the lowest setting, so I
returned it in favour of the Lumintop.
I also live in rural Canada and I’m part of search and rescue so I understand the use case for SMS, if you’ve only got a feature phone and SMS is the only way to communicate, so be it. That said, messengers like Signal and iMessage are still strictly better from a security standpoint and for day to day usage for most people. It has nothing to do with tribalism.
I have an iPhone… For me if I see the green bubbles that means that the messages are SMS which is insecure and antiquated. I use iMessage and Signal because they are more secure and allow for sending rich media like photos and videos without worrying about MMS and SMS. I have massive amounts of data, why the heck would I use SMS to send messages. It has nothing to do with hating Android, it’s more to do with SMS being hot garbage.
My first… - Lemmy.world
I’ve used a lot of flashlights over the years, from the old D cell maglite to an
assortment of climbing headlamps etc. I just received my Skilhunt M150 and I
feel like all the other flashlights I’ve used in the past are just toys… I have
a Sofirn IF22A and a NiteCore MT06MDon the was as well. What have I gotten
myself into?

Lost my Streamlight Stylus Pro on a SAR call, replacement advice? - Lemmy.world
Hi there, I’m glad to see a flashlight community here! I lost my trusty stylus
on a call and I’m hoping that y’all could recommend a worthy replacement. I
would happily purchase the same but I’m wondering if there are some other
options that I might be missing out on. Rugged and easy operation are key
requirements. If it’s very bright it would be handy to have a low intensity
setting for checking for pupil dilation on a subject.
I’ll certainly be staying. I like it here so far!
