Honestly didn’t know much about what I wanted to do. When I was really young I wanted to be a cop. Thank GOD I didn’t follow that. I grew up doing theater and thought I wanted to be an actor and tried hard but realized I hated auditioning and isn’t want a life of that.

But I’ve always been interested in tech and tinkering and found a job doing technical theater installing sound and light systems, running tech for musicals and such and it’s my favorite thing in the world.

Follow your passions. Whatever things you find fun and exciting I’m sure there’s a career out there for you. Try and put yourself out there and try anything that sounds remotely interesting and you’ll find what you’re looking for.

Got any beamshots? I’m debating ordering a d1/d1k with this emitter.

I placed an order today for a W1, W2, and 519a 57k and am gonna try and swap one of them in. Hopefully won’t have to do too much to fit them in.

That’s all from the TS11 aux lights actually! They’re stupid bright and I love it. No UV light yet. Can’t decide.

Love your diffusers man! Also your D2 headband clip has been very helpful on the job.

My pick would be an emisar D1.

I have a couple of them in the original pic. Order one with a 18350 tube and for led choice go with the SFN60. That little guy should easily do 2-4000 lumens

Not yet. Olight is one of the few doing stuff like that.

I’m such a tinkerer that not having all that control stresses me out. If the TS12 had a less ugly LED and Anduril I would carry it everyday. It’s so much fun.

Honestly I haven’t carried the brass one much. It’s really nice I just like the copper one much more. For the price it’s an absolute steal though. Plus you can get it in 3k.

My white D2 is a 519a 5700k/2700k dedome combo with floody optics. And the green one is 3500k and green with spot optics. If I had to get 1 more honestly I’d probably get 519a/w1. I think flood/spot is the most practical.
