M. F. Hasler, in reply to V. Shevelev, Peculiar sets of evil numbers (Cf. A001969), SeqFan list, Oct 17 2013
EXAMPLE
For n=1 to 4, we have the sets
n=1: {1} with sum = 1,
n=2: {1, 2} with sum = 3
n=3: {2, 7, 8} with sum = 17,
n=4: {4, 19, 49, 67} with sum = 139.
E.g., for n=3, the numbers 2, 7 and 8 have an odd bit sum, but 2+7, 2+8, 7+8 and 2+7+8 all have an odd bit sum.
For n=4, we also have the admissible set {14, 31, 44, 61} which has a smaller maximal element, but a larger total sum.
n=5: {42, 84, 138, 174, 357} with sum = 795.
n=6: {168, 348, 372, 702, 906, 1407} with sum = 3903.
