When you have to ride a tiny bike, real estate is tight!
Fenix takes very little space on my bars and helmet.

Since I ride 2 bikes everyday I need to yank my light off bike 1, jump on the train and remount onto bike2. I have to have my batteries and lights as 1 unit with very quick release(velcro). Thus the Fenix. I have to remove the batteries at the end of the day to recharge.
AA NiMH batteries should be charged as individuals. The better chargers will charge 1, 2, 3 ...etc. When the charger senses a full charge on individual batteries they stop charging it but continue to charge others. Cheap chargers charge batteries as groups thus overcharging some.
