I would think that the best solution to both the heat dissipation and the run time is to research emitters that convert a higher percentage of their energy consumption into the desired frequencies of light, and have therefore less waste in terms of heat or undesirable light frequencies. The theoretical ideal light source produces no heat except that which is created by the desired light frequencies interacting with a medium.
I wonder which avenue is making greater strides these days in flashlight terms, battery technology or light efficiency? What would be the scale used to measure that, something like "lumen hours per gram in a <1kg system?"
