I’m ignoring the year here and just doing my favorite lights available in 2024 Best overall- zebra sc600w mk4, with a special mention to firefly for the e04 surge Best headlamp- armytek wizard c2 pro nichia warm Most innovative- fraz labs any model Most fun light to use- sofirn lt1s Best community member- ME! Lol jk jk, honestly it’s everyone that contributes. Those that post on bst, offer mods, do reviews, etc Worst design- emisar d1ak Brand- ACEBEAM isnt even close, special mention to jetbeam and skillhunt for really stepping it up in 2024 with some really solid offerings. Yes, firefly is killing it. But acebeams lineup is so complete and not a bad light in it.
