Are there any boost driven soda cans? (self.flashlight)

I don't know if there are any that exist, but I'm imagining the runtime of something like an SP36 or Q8 with a boost driver. If you'd get even 50% more runtime that equates to hours of light depending on the setting.

The upcoming M44 will be using a buck or buck/boost.

Oh heck yes! I was hoping that would be the case so we can get better efficiency out of a chonk light.

Still on the fence on that one due to the square optics.

Ooh, I might have to get me one of those.

I'm entirely too impatient for the Meteor to drop.

Convoy 4X18A with XHP70.2 has a boost driver.

Convoy 3x21b too

Acebeam models use either buck or boost drivers. X50 buck, X75 boost.

Maker mk37 maybe. I think it's a Buck diver. Very efficient.
