Hello,
I am building a custom flashlight where the head, battery, and control buttons are not in "one unit" as in a typical flashlight. The battery will be about 2-3 inches from the head. The control button is about 1-2 inches from the head.
The flashlight has two functions: instant access from any state self-defense strobe mode at 300-500 lumen, 50 lumen normal use secondary. Power source needs to support 5 hours of 50 lumen, 10 minutes of strobe mode. The smaller the battery the better, and can be rechargeable or non-rechargeable. No onboard charging is needed, though electronic must support low power warning buzzer.
Since the primary purpose is for self-defense, high reliability is a must. Please suggest components that might work for this. Thank you very much for your help!
