In an attempt to compare size...

Nice! I would like that same LED with an 18650 driving it. As it stands, you're getting the same thickness, but only saving about a half-inch of length to run with a far less beefy Eneloop as opposed to a high-drain 18650.

that will probably happen, but, the carry weight w battery, will be as heavy as TWO SC52 w battery
fwiw, ONE 18650 cell weighs as much as TWO AA cells
and One Zebra w 18650 weighs as much as One SC 52 w 14500 or AA eneloop, PLUS two more spare batteries
thanks for the battery weights, the 18650 is 56% heavier than the AA Eneloop proA 3500mAh 18650 weighs just over 47 grams.
An Eneloop Pro weighs 30 grams.

lets start over, and compare models with similar 90+ CRI
the SC600 series weighs 78 grams, and offers the high CRI of the SC5mk2 (albeit w a different LED)
SC600 w 18650 = 125 grams
SC5mk2 w Eneloop Pro = 79 grams
the 18650 90+ cri light is 58% heavier than the AA Eneloop light w 90+cri
it is far more likely that they will update the SC6X series with this emitter.
Im using actual facts for what exists today
I look forward to seeing the run times for this light.
Will they make a head lamp version? I want a right-angle light with these beam qualities.
Yes, they are releasing 2 versions actually(H53c and H53Fc) with another version down the road possibly(H503c). You can check for upcoming lights on their product comparison page.
Sweet - I look forward to getting one of those.
