Good luck with that. I prefer light producing devices that I can change the batteries when I need to. I would hate to run out of power and have to wait for the sun to rise to charge my device.
I use a PFD (or life jacket) light for my tent light, two AAA batteries. Not the strobe, the constant on version.

And a headlamp powered by AA or AAA batteries. Thrunite TH20, older style that is no longer made. (They have a new version now.) Uses single AA battery that is adjustable for light output. This uses one AA battery. It can use a Lithium Ion battery instead, but I am sticking with AA batteries.
