You have really tempted me to get this light.
I notice the charger has a usb plug, so this would be great at my cabin, to recharge off my planned solar system.
I love all the LED tech in flashlights !
Here's another thing.
These pocket lights all use the common 18650 Li-ion cell, which is also used in many older laptop battery packs with 6 or 9 cells. Usually, when a pack fails only one or two cells are weak, but the rest is serviceable. If you carefully break the pack and salvage the good cells, they can be charged with the charger in the light kit, and you have some spares.
