I'm looking for a recomendation for an LED flashlight as a gift. It MUST be under or at $50, and use a common size battery (AAA, AA, C, D). I want the gift to exemplify the qualities of the "premium" brands (no taskforce, etc). It has to be a lasting gift: tough and reliable, as well as very bright for its size.

I'm eyeing the Tiablo A1 and Olight T15 Q5. Recomendations between the two? Another light to consider?

I had an Olight T15q5 and found the interface to be a bit cumbersome, and the hotspot to be too small. After side by side use for a week I preferred the Fenix L1D both in user interface and in beam pattern.

I don't have the Tiablo A1, but I do like the Tiablo quality in my A9s. I do have the Fenix L0Dq4 and it is amazing. It would be a good choice in your price range.
