Why do you say have two? So you always have a back up, or for more light?

The 18650 is impressive. I remember back in the old days...OK like a few years ago, when that cell would have been crazy expensive.

Ok, now it's between these two: R4 and Q5
The Q5 wins major points for batter capacity, but the R4 is about 70 lumens brighter, and can use AA in a pinch, which is pretty convenient.
