I really like 10180 powered lights, but do any have low voltage cutoff to protect the battery?

not that I know of
and the 3 10180 lights I tried all ended up being very finicky and unreliable.. I wrote my impression is This Thread, heres a snip:

I wanted to find out if there was any low battery indicator, there is not, but the light gets so dim it seems obvious to me when it is no longer bright enough to use. By the time it has dropped to 10% of initial brightness, the battery is still above 2.7v, so I dont think there is a high risk of overdischarging.

ran the M01 on high and checked it every 5 minutes
