A detachable charging base. As it, the light would have a detachable charging base that either allows USB-C charging or magnetic charging. Some prefer USB since it's more readily available, but you can change the base for magnetic charging like many olights. OR remove the base completely and forgo the charging abilities and have a shorter/smaller flashlight
