The Klarus Mi1C HCRI is a great little light and, if it's the form factor you're after, it really deserves consideration. The magnet is fantastic, the beam is gorgeous, and it pumps out a ton of light for the size. I'm also always a fan of stainless steel bezels - this really checks a lot off my 'nice to have' list.
I don't like that you have to hold the switch to turn the light off, or that there's no mechanical lockout - but neither of those are enough to be a deal breaker for me in a light this small.

thanks for the great review!
I like that this light works on a hat, has a battery level monitor at 3 clicks, and even if the operator does not use the battery monitor, the light flashes twice every 3 minutes when voltage drops below 10%

Plus the included USB rechargeable battery is protected, making this light a great gift for someone that may not own a charger.

thumbs up on the Klarus Mi1C High CRI with the 219c 5000k

I think its a great off the shelf High CRI 16340 option.
