Currently Lens are glass or plastic?
Mine says shipped with the batteries.
Hey mate I’m not sure but apparently they where fixed when the group buy was on as we where told by banggood. I have one of the original cometas not fixed and mine was okay. But either way its an easy diy fix.
Dedoming a XPG2 is super easy just leave it in petrol for a few hours and the dome will fall off. My cometa out throws my B158.
Hmmm… My order says “processing”…
They did ship the free 2x 18650.
Still NOT sold out. 2x ordered. 
It said in stock when I ordered then went straight to backorder.
I cancelled mine, best check your orders status.
Same here I guess they don’t want to send with 26650 cell so they hold the light and wait for us to cancel it by the refund menu in the order detail , then create a new page to sell light without 26650 cell.
Settle down people! They sent mine today with the 26650 included and even shipped some 18650s with the light as well.
When did you order ? Mine was on 20 Sep but still processing even through “ship in 24 hr” when order.
My order was placed 2 days ago, and still shows “back order”
Mine took slightly more than 24hr from processing to shipped.
Yea i ordered mine on the 21st but it could have been the 20th USA time. Just shipped a few hours ago.
Same.
Those two pages I linked to were the original pages from 2016 during the GB, one with cell and one without.
When they lowered the price dramatically they should have removed the free cells since they now cost as much as the light and they will most likely be trying to get out of sending the cells, they are losing a lot of money, but BG can be as dumb as a box of rocks at times, or so I’ve noticed…
Wholesale price the cells will be worth like 3 or 4 USD max.
Hadn’t thought down those lines and you’re right but those Chinese are very cheap and that’s a lot of money to them, I bet this thread alone has bought every light they sold so far since lowering the price like that, but I still think that they forgot about the free cell on that one page I linked, those two pages have always been there since the GB, but beats me, sure hope they stand up and ship the ordered lights.
It really must have been a mind bender to suddenly see the sale of the Cometa go off the scale like it did in the last 24 hrs. Bet they know who would have bought them all as well, it’s those same BLFers who came up with all the fixes to this messed up light… ha ha, it’s a heck of a deal.
I read some manufacturers hate Banggood and stopped doing business with them because they sell a lot of things at cost, which kills off other smaller retailers that actually provide warranty service. In this case, I’m betting this is sold at or even below cost, so even an additional $3-$4 (maybe more as I’ve found wholesale sometimes is not as cheap as I thought) would bring them further into the red. Normally I would rather buy from MTN, Illumination Gear, etc. even if it cost a bit more. However, this current price of $15.99 is a STEAL (compared to the Jaxman Z1 I always wanted to try) I cannot resist and the light is not available elsewhere, which is why I bought 2 and I don’t care about getting free cells as I don’t feel a need to have a company lose money even if they made a clumsy mistake.
Also I have my own business too, so I can feel for other businesses. Sometimes people don’t understand we need to make a living too and without profit, we basically have no income to feed our families, which is why I hate doing business with people that want to see me lose money so they can score a great deal.
This company deals in fairly small volume so i expect the prices to be fairly high compared to what these big company pay.

Nice find, thanks.
I intend to do the same when mine arrives. I take it you used the original driver?
