If you're going to be a non-hobbyist with one light, get the H25L/D25L or LR, sold by Wurkkos, Sofirn, and others for $15 to $20. It's an 18650-powered USB-C rechargeable headlamp with two 500 lumen white leds (L) or one white and one red (LR) and it's probably my most used light since I have one next to my bed. I have some minor quibbles about the UI but the light is well made and a great value. I reviewed the LR a while back: https://lemmy.ml/post/23376055

I have both the L and LR now, and have switched preference to liking the L a little bit better, but the LR gives you red light on the occasions when you want that. I just wish someone made an Anduril version. The Wangle isn't it.

AA/14500: I haven't seen the SP10 Pro on Sofirn's site lately. It may be discontinued. I like the TS10v2/SG better anyway, but they are 14500 only. I see those in the enthusiast section.

Headlamps: 1) include H25L mentioned above, 2) for Nitecore HA11 how about adding a link to Parametrek's technical review http://parametrek.com/blog/ha11.html , 3) for super duper light weight the Nitecore NU05 is the champ. Might also include Wurkkos HD10 since it's the only Anduril headlamp I know of besides Wangle. It's 14500 and discontinued though they still sell them super cheap. I wish they had an 18650 version. Also seen in enthusiast section.

New Wurkkos TS27 is kind of intriguing, but weird. A thrower with a huge LFP cell that could be a duty light, but it also has an RGB lantern mode like lolwhat?
