I’m looking for a well made EDC light that wouldn’t require batteries to be removed for charging. By EDC, I mean lights that are roughly no bigger than 100mm x 30mm.
I am likely to buy 25-30 of these for an organization I’m involved with. So a budget light would be attractive.
Does anyone have recommendations?
Thanks
I need help from my BLF brethren! My brother is an HVAC contractor, and loves having bright multimode flashlights around. He had an XR-E Q5 that had a charging port built-in, with a car charger. He loved it because he could leave it in the truck charging, and pull it out when he needed it, and it would always be charged, no muss no fuss. However, he managed to break it and it needs replacing!
Here are some others I've found, but I don't know which are the best:

Hey everyone. I was considering getting a gift for an inlaw. I bought them all flashlights a while back, the Polestar 6xAAs. The theory was that use of AAs would be more appreciated.
However after seeing a new category of flashlight, I am considering one that uses 18650s or whatever, but has the charging circuit built-in. They can just use any ole mini-USB charger/port to charge the flashlight. They also typically allow the abililty to charge other devices. A few examples are:

Fenix UC40 ? Fenix products are generally well built, have a nice finish, but are not budget.
Klarus RS1A ? Same comments. BLF review here
Cheap, but long, “Ultrafire flashlight suit” at Banggood
I don’t have any of these flashlights. So above are no recommendations, but just hints.

I have a Nitecore P25 with a great built in Chargin port, also a Roche F6 with the Charger head that works good.
