A few small lights I had around. The hs10 gets a lot of use as a night light and the ts10 is carried the most right now. Never really used the s21d in this form but it’s very compact!

Left-to-right:

Sofirn hs10 16340 2700k

Wurkkos ts10 14500 5700k

Sofirn sc21 16340 4000k

Acebeam Pokelit AA/14500 5000k

Sofirn sp10 pro AA/14500

Convoy s21d 18350 2700k (with Wurkkos 20350 tube and tail cap)

      Had to sneak one in there. There’s also the m21b short version 😅 :

    Everybody needs a TS10.

    It may not be The Perfect Light, but it comes a lot closer than many other lights. Do you want great CRI and R9? The CPS2323 is solidly 9080. Do you want lumens? The TS10 has more than enough for any practical use. Do you want small? It’s the size of a button-top 21700 cell; you could shove it inside most 21700 lights and screw down the tailcap securely.

    IMO, the only thing that could make it more perfect is a 4500K 219b emitter swap.

      Well said. It does seem to live up to the hype especially due to the price (which those LEDs must help keep low). I originally ordered 4000k and orange aux which I lost pretty soon after. For the repurchase I got 5700k since I didn’t like the 4000k much - I’d rather have either 3000k or 5000k for some reason.

      I saw your other comment about low-levels which is how I use this one, it’s set to around 100 ceiling (out of 150) which lets one 14500 last for a week or so with frequent short uses.

      ts10 is used a lot as a daily light. I would prefer 5000k but I still like the cooler temperature for daytime use.

      S21d is a lot power in a tiny package so probably my favorite despite being impractical.

      The sc21 is never used these days but it can be given away easily due to onboard chargin so I keep it accessible.

      And I also forgot to include another favorite in this size, Lumintop fw1aa. It’s a mini-thrower that I got discounted from Aliexpress shortly before it was discontinued (unfortunately IMO).
