Hi all, i'm looking for a headlamp with flood beam.

I have already fenix LD10r4 and ItpA3 which in some way can be adapted as headlamps (clip on hat visor) but i'm looking for a more specific, comfortable product I can use for hands free indoor work at close/medium distance or even reading a book in darkness.

I think the Zebra H501W would be good for me but I'm wondering if a new model is coming soon, should be the H51FW from what I read in this forum. Do you know when it could come out and if it worths the wait? (I'd like more preset modes well spaced instead of the 2 strobes, useless on a flood light IMO)

Then I found a sort of clone, the ULTRAFIRE H2B, described in this post

do you think it worths considering it? The full variable ramping brightness is interesting but no presets? also the increased size and weight, no neutral tint, the magnet and reliability are more concerns, but this user seems enthusiast

Thank you for the advices, hope to make a more precise idea of what to buy
