On the flashlight forums people organize "passarounds", sort of like a serial get-together. If there's a couple of lights that everyone wants to compare people lend their lights to the cause, put them in the box, and ship them around the world for a while. When you receive the shipment, you have a couple of days to play before packing everything up and shipping to the next name on the list.

Doing this with M80s and 850s might be problematic, but maybe some M22s and the smaller Rockets -- RS250s or whatever.

Alternatively this summer maybe we could organize a road show if time permits -- load up some Axioms and Rockets and take that cross country trip...
