Pros

  • I would opt for the 2700K Nichia 519A for the T7. Simply because if you do want to go even lower in CCT, you can dedome the 519A and drop it to about ~2200K.
  • You can have something like Convoy's T7, which uses a 14500 rechargeable lithium-ion, and its USB-C port is exclusively used to recharge this cell. You can then use AAs, (NiMH, alkaline, lithium-primaries), and the charging circuit wil...
  • Convoy T7 - USB-C keep the 14500 battery topped up and then keep a pack of lithium primaries as backup
  • Convoy has the T7, it takes a 14500 battery and has built in usb-c charging. It currently has all 519a ccts available.
  • Convoy T7. 519A. 4500K. If you have rechargable AA NiMH batteries (do not use alkalines in it unless it's an emergency) and a AA battery charger, you should be good.

Cons

  • The Convoy t7’s 519a 5700k is barely rosy at all even dedomed (it’s not visibly rosy at all, just neutral)
  • The T7 has no shortcut to Moon.
  • One that I use and like is the Convoy T7... It is by no means perfect, but something to consider. ... Accepts lion 14500 cells or regular AA ... Led is selectable, but recommend the Nichia 519A for a decent brightness and high CRI. ... D...
  • Personally I don't find it particularly big for a 14500., especially one with a side switch. The T3/T5 are more chunky. I would wait for the USB port update though, it's a bit of a pain to have to hunt through cables to find a thin one,...
  • I've heard the USB port/housing is finicky and not every charger plays well with it. That aside I also heard it's quite big for a 14500 light, somebody saying it's almost 18650 size.

Personally I don't find it particularly big for a 14500., especially one with a side switch. The T3/T5 are more chunky. I would wait for the USB port update though, it's a bit of a pain to have to hunt through cables to find a thin one, or trim one down a bit. For example the cables you get with wurkkos/sofirn lights are too big to fit as is.
