I lube the threads of my flashlights with silicone grease. This makes the threads smooth as butter when screwing the body on or off.I do this on my screw-cap fountain pens too. I apply the grease on the inside threads of the cap, so there's not much excess on the pen barrel threads. (I wipe it with a clean cloth, to make sure.)#Flashlights #FountainPens #FountainPen

@vees I didn't know that, Rob. I like the Hank lights, but too expensive for me. Will just admire them from afar, lol.Yes, the SC21Pro is very portable. I think the newer ones already have Anduril 2 installed, if I'm not mistaken.

@vees The D4 is very nice and compact indeed. I still prefer using a simple UI, but Anduril made it more "user-programmable". My regular EDC flashlight is just an LED Lenser with AAA primary battery. Not much brightness but still much better than the phone flashlight.

In a watch (appreciation) group, a new member was asking about the authenticity of a watch he intends to purchase. I cringed when I noticed someone reacted with a "laughing" emoji.Yes it was fake, but not everyone can spot it easily, especially when new to the hobby. Communities should help each other, and not laugh at the newbies.We all were newbies once. In fact, I still consider myself a newbie.#Watches #Hobbies

If you are waiting for a sign, this is it.If you *really* can afford it, go ahead and buy the [object]. Life is short. Be happy.
