I have lights now with magnetic style connectors on the tailcap and also some with USB miniport connectors.
I like the magnetic style as in some of the Supbeam and Klarus lights except that you need to take the lead supplied by Supbeam if you go away.
A USB miniport style connector uses easily found leads that are used on most PCs and other devices.
A USB lead can be readily bought from many stores whereas the magnetic connection lead cannot be readily obtained if it was left behind.
I could take the batteries out and charge them in both cases but that is going back to being a pain again and defeating the purpose of having bought a flashlight with an "in-light" charging design.
What are your preferences and thoughts? :thinking:
