How about Mankerlight MC13 II with SBT90.2 ($110 USD) emitter or sft40 ($65)?

http://mankerlight.com/mankerlight-mc13-ii-90-2/

It’s a larger 18350 light that twists open to 18650. The TIR is similar to Thrunite Catapult v1 and possibly Wurkkos ts11.

.

A 21700 tube was also released as part of a bundle or here: https://www.killzoneflashlights.com/products/manker-21700-tube-for-mc13-ii-e14-iv.

I don’t have this light but it seems like OK value for the higher price (for very short bursts of throw, not sustained).

Agreed. My copy lost this documentation link in the original which gives more detail about the horizontal scaling: https://join-lemmy.org/docs/administration/horizontal_scaling.html.

It seems really straightforward (which is a good thing), each backend Lemmy_server handles incoming requests and also pulls from a shared queue of other federation work.

Oh sorry I mixed that up, the Wurkkos rep called it “bead-blasted” but that sounds more like stonewashed than brushed.

There were also some alternate finishes for the previews, maybe one will make it into production.

A more focused throw channel with the same color temperature as the flood channel would be great.

Sft-70 is 6 volt right? Otherwise this would seem like the perfect spot for an sft-40 3000k.

[-] Reader9@programming.dev 3 points 1 year ago

Well yes, but this is an internet forum for flashlights. That’s pretty weird too.

[-] Reader9@programming.dev 3 points 1 year ago

Wow how are you liking the 3000k sft-40??

D Cell

Lumintop AD01 came out this year, no idea why but they support 1 D cell.

not having to toggle through every damn brightness and flashing setting and just be able to turn on/off with a single button

You’re in luck, this is one of OP’s own requirements for all the lights on the “arbitrary list”:

A user interface where a single click turns the light on in a reasonable mode, and another single click turns it off.

Although your current role wouldn’t seem very senior at a large organizational, “senior“ is a relative term and at this company it seems like you are the engineer with ownership responsibilities over the end-to-end software development of a production system. So it might still be reasonable to use a senior title if there are other benefits

Imagine you need (or just want) to carry several flashlights for different use-cases: seeing far away, seeing nearby, lighting up your campsite with a warm glow, or emitting a specific color.

Multi-channel lights aim to consolidate multiple use-cases into a single flashlight. And although 2-channel lights are available, this might be the first 3-channel available from a flashlight maker who allows customers to customize their LED choices from the factory.

Here are a few photo posts about using lights outdoors for example:

That seems like a good idea by removing ambiguity about what the necessary skills are.

When joining a new company, I once asked a wise colleague “are you a data engineer or a backend engineer?”. They replied “I’m a software engineer” and ever since I have given the same answer, for reasons similar to your post.

I have also seen “data engineer” used at facebook to indicate someone who writes SQL but not other programming languages, another potential reason not to use this as a job title IMO.

A few small lights (programming.dev)

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)

Three Convoy lights with 8A buck drivers for getting the most runtime out of 21700 size batteries. Purchased for $28-$38 each with batteries included I think these are an incredible value.

*white balance is not consistent

M21B with SFT40:

S21D with four 519A 2700k emitters and 60 degree beaded TIR:

S21B with Osram CULPM1:
