Thanks for the review -- nice photos and detailed text!
I still hope Zebralights releases a warm & very high CRI version of their H50x lamps (typically using the Cree XP-G 90). I know they don't plan to do so since most of customers prefer neutral white rather than incandescent-like tints.
I used my H501w underground (in caving) for several years to replace candle or acetylene lighting for breaks as well as for long-exposure photography. Since then I've preferred using flashlights with diffusers because of the XP-G 90 inside, but they're less convenient than a Zebra, which is the reason why a 3000K/90CRI H502 Zebra would be the perfect acetylene-like lamp for me.
However this H502c shows several improvements and I think that any caver or underground photographer should have it.
