Thank you as always for your hard work!

Here's some feedback, take it as you wish:

  • A changelog from the previous version is always nice.
  • For the 'Quick List', consider emphasizing the light's niche, rather than the model names which are probably meaningless to newcomers. For example:
    • Budget General Use Light: Wurkkos FC11
    • Headlamp / Angle Light: Skilhunt H04 RC
    • Long-Range "Thrower" Light: Sofirn IF22A
  • Typo? Convoy Z1 B35AM.

That's a great idea. I should do that.

Typo? Convoy Z1 B35AM.

Not any more than I'd specify that one should get an Armytek Wizard with the Nichia 144AR. That letter in the part number is only relevant when you're swapping LEDs and need to know the voltage. Convoy doesn't offer the B35AR.

I'm used to seeing it offered in flashlights as B35AM, I have not run across a B35AR light yet. No worries!
