It has been a while I was tempted to buy a new light. Got the G5 during a sale for about 20 euros and I gotta say this thing is a lot of fun.

My usual EDC is a Wurkkos TS10, but having a C port for convenient charging is really nice and the RGB mode is nice to have. Will use the red when going on my bike.

Feels great in hand and is very fidgety. There is a lot going on with the slider for lock/unlock/charge, that adjustment wheel and the movable clip. Love it. And I think it looks super cool, but still clean. Very nice design. Love the way the solved the charge port cover.

Wuben's product designers know their stuff.

I am ok with the cool white LED but of course a warm option would be nice.

What could be improved?

Maybe a way to change brightness in RGB mode and finer color blending (the colors are presets)

Double click from off brings two color flashing. I think it is better than strobe (it has no strobe, very nice), but I probably would prefer something like a shortcut to turbo. And instead of battery indicator with hold from off, I would prefer a shortcut to start in moon.

Hope the cell will last a while. Not a fan of non removable cells, but it is what it is.

Would be cool if the would make one that can take a replaceable 14500 or 10440.

Else this light is super cool and I think it is almost perfect as a ultracompact edc light.
