flash already. That way I can stop looking for one.
TIA.

So, what's the purrfect flashlight?
One that purrs like a cat? 
Except for keychain flashlights with nonremovable cells, I always charge my flashlight cells in a proper charger.
(I don't feel comfortable charging most cells while inside the flashlight.)
in the mechanical keyboard world people keep referring to their “end game” board, I don’t think many achieve that goal though.
same for flashlights, there is always a new emitter or light model… hard to find the ultimate one.
Ok since ya axed.
1. Can accommodate 18350 up to 21700 batts by simply having a tail spring that can unscrew and make anode contact no matter watt.
2. Have an aspheric lens with an easy to screw on lid over the reflector. Go reflector only by just removing the aspheric lid. Rotational focus only to help negate water ingress issues.
3. Have BOTH USB-C and USB-Micro ports. 
4. If the collapsible/expandable screw able tail spring is a bother, then its gotta COME with various screw in tubes to accommodate #1.
5. Side AND tail switches.
6. Three emitters. Each one can separately rotate-click purrfectly into reflector center position as desired. Each emitter type a selectable option upon ordering.
7. Anduril to muppeteer UI options by just clicking a micro switch next to the main switches. Covered of course.
8. Interchangeable heads from EDC size up to I’ll need a fooking shoulder strap to hold this thing up. (Could eliminate #6 if so desired.)
9. Different colored anodizing options.
10. AR lenses only. Plastic need not apply. Aspheric lenses could be plastic as technology nowadays has seen big improvements both in quality and durability. Much less big weight savings.
11. Battery capacity remaining indicators through tiny LEDs. None of that silly flipoing through umpteen click machinations without fooking forgetting where ya are to begin with.
12. No Gladiator Crenalations. Anywhere. Even tiny ones to enable scratching the assailant like two girls in a cat fight.
13. Magnetic charging option along with #3. I like options.
I got more butt index finger is gettin tired speed typing.
PS. #2 accomplishes two things. Ya could screw in a quality DIFFUSER lens (Of course I would ONLY buy a BOAZ set up. Everything else is jacking around.) Since any head is rotational focus adjustable the aspheric or diffuser lens (beam) could be micro-tuned just like the Defiant Super Thrower was capable of doing. And yes the reflector remains.
PSS. Chad axed me watt a “183” was. 18350 a course. Fixed it nonetheless.
Bort would appreciate this reference...
Your purrfect flashlight reminds me of this:
183 ??
The Homer!
Bright enough so you can do a cat-scan…
18350. Watt I gotta do, Chad? Spell it out fer ya?
Ok I’ll fix it. :laughing:
man, id like to see what this flash looks like. You got a CAD of it ? 
basically what im getting is a 18350 tube possibility with a gt94 head possibility, with zoomie possibility, and a button setup like the nitecore TM series with a separate button for battery check, but it runs Anduril? in blue anodization, or greeeen (my favorite).
Anyway, i think my purrrfect f.l. would be a little different. but i'd buy yours. just to check it out.
< ‘La Cucaracha’ horn sounds >>
Interest in this light is rising and falling just like his butt index.
I was almost exited of the possibility of new cell. lol
Was thinking something like a CR183
Anyway I’d buy the version without any charging ports. Don’t care. Don’t want them.
You left off #14: Brews good coffee. 
DITTO…it is not that hard to remove the batteries, and I just do not trust a flashlights charging circuits compared to a really high quality dedicated charger. I have seen various flashlight reviews where the flashlight circuit overcharges the batteries.
Happy Cat.
Oh, rubbish. Just charge a cell with the onboard charger, once done, immediately pull it and measure its voltage. Repeat for letting it charge overnight, long after it finishes.
That checks both initial “I’m done!” voltage and letting it sit’n’soak a while.
I know my Tacklife initially finishes at about 4.1V, but if left will keep trickle-charging it to a bit higher’n 4.2V. So unplugging right after it’s done is perfectly safe, and hits a sweet 90something% SOC vs maxing out.
