After getting maybe two hours of sleep last night, I totally forgot what my SOTD was supposed to be. That is the peril of taking the pix in advance, I guess. I managed to re-construct everything but the brush, so that differs from the pictures.

DoubleE- Nice shave, and a nice torch, as well. My only problem with Surefires is that they eat those CR123's pretty fast. Have you checked the new prices on their batteries? Ooof!

Try this- use their P90 lamp assembly with a pair of RCR123's. This combination would fry the 6V P60 lamp in seconds (literally), but the ~8.4V works really well on the 9V lamp. Run time is not as bad as one would imagine, either.

Oh, yeah- my shave:
Vulfix 376
TI blonde horn
Trumper lime (why limes?) cream
Neroli hydrosol
Proraso a/s balm

Mediocre shave, bordering on crappy. Dry skin due to cold weather and dry heat? I dunno. I'm skipping tomorrow.
