Please Help me replace my Crelant CH10

[Poppy]

I liked my Crelant CH10 so much I have about 4 of them. Unfortunately, each has become unreliable.

What I like about it:
18650
It has a ramping UI with two positions of memory.
460 lumens high is high enough.
I like the XML2 emitter, but others would be acceptable.
Neutral white.
Big on-off switch, can be operated with gloves on.
The led is further away from my face than an L shaped light. It does seem to make a difference when bugs are attracted to the light.

What exactly is making them unreliable? What are they doing? There are lots of 18650 headlamps on the market, but it seems the style with the centered LED has gone out of fasion.

They don't always turn on.

Sometimes, they'll flicker at a very low output.
Sometimes they will turn on and function as they should.

Other than that, I really like them.

Hows about a Thrunite TH10v2? Has a throwy beam (307m claim). 18650, neutral tint option, Usb charging. Only thing bad is high is about 1100 lm/med is 350 lm (4hrs claimed), so not 400-ish lm. Also non-ramping and a bit heavy.

Found this: SLONIK 1000 Lumen Rechargeable 2x CREE LED Headlamp w/ 2200 mAh Battery - Lightweight, Durable, Waterproof and Dustproof Headlight - Xtreme Bright 600 ft Beam <$40.00US

It does not protrude as much it has 2 leds in the center.

Thanks Mark,
I don't recognize the manufacturer, and didn't find any particularly reputable reviewers.
Most reviews are amazon reviews, which I honestly didn't even look at.

The other reviews were either sales reviews, or camping world type reviews, that include a list of other no-name products as among the top ten. One of those reviewers mentioned that the switch may begin to fail with time, as a con.

I do appreciate the effort though.
