Why everyone like this light?.. i don’t understand 1300 lumens for $16? You can have a smaller light like the sofirn SF36 @ 1000 lumens for this price :question:
I don’t know, thats why I bought one.
Probably because its a big zoomie and the original offer came with a 26650 and two 18650.
A reflector beam will never look as good or pleasing as the one coming out of an aspheric/convex lens. If you want maximum out the front lumens, choose a reflector flashlight. If you like perfectly even and pleasing beams, choose aspheric/convex lens flashlights. Stealthy throwers too, hunters like this.

For me the Cometa can light up my entire backyard and with a quick twist it has a <900m range, it absolutely destroys the D1S and BLF GT mini for throw.
Someone knows:
Is there an extension tube that can work for the cometa
Is there a comfortable place for O-ring between the focusing head and body
to fix the rattle (size of that O-ring) ?
Okay i got my two today a saturday weird lol. They are fixed or at least better than my original.
The centering disc that holds the led down is milled out where the led wire sit making scratching of the anodized surface harder you have a few mm of clearance now. The battery tube ground has a disc over it for the shorting issue there.
I got the 26650 with my two cometas.
Still has the AR coated lens.
Seems better then my original but the XPLHI needs to go the die looks almost twice the size of my modded Cometa using the XPG2.
My unit tracking info:
China Post Group Dongguan International Mail Interchange Bureau and Exchange station, has been exported to open and dismantle .
Looks like I may not get it in one piece.
Why would they do that because of the battery?
Think somethings got lost in translation.
good news, thanks!
Not that it effected anything, but is the head still loose. Rattle when you shake the light back and forth?
Mine Marked as shipped,paid for get a tracking number but never.
They reply “your order has been shipped tracking number need up 2 week to be ready”
That’s no true
Yea the head still rattles but that’s fairly standard for this style zoomie. Could probably place an O-ring in there.
Ordered two without batteries and they are back ordered…
So now the waiting begins…
The order I made for one without battery on Sep 26 2018, that Banggood wanted a extra $17,23 in shipping fees for is now out of stock.
[Rant on]
I have been trying to get an explanation why I had to pay so much in shipping fees for a flashlight, much more that the most expensive option on the product page. I have been getting no answers to the questions in my e-mails, they just sent the same e-mail again and again. I did send a PM to CS Banggood on Sep 26 2018 but I there has been no reply.
Today they then informed me that is was out of stock.
I stopped buying from Banggood some time ago, because of their CS, but this offer made me try again.
[Rant off]
So it looks like I won’t be getting a Cometa.
I got refund for both ordered…
I really wanted one.
How come? I do not mean to criticize, just curious because I always make sure how much I am charged for anything at all times. That is more money in S&H fees than the product itself LoL! 
Cheers ^:)
The flashlight was listed with free standard shipping for DKK 103.42 when I made my order, later that day I got an e-mail where they requested DKK 109.75 additional shipping fee.
At the time I made my order the most expensive shipping was EMS for DKK 61.77. They never gave me answer why it would cost so much to ship a single flashlight without batteries,
every time I sent an e-mail asking for an explanation they kept sending the same e-mail asking for DKK 109.75 until the flashlight was out of stock.
But at least : “We apologize for any inconvenience caused by this issue”
Okay i am tripper! The disc that holds the LED in place is the same on mine as the new ones!
Only difference is the grounding protection in the battery tube that sits over the pill and the tail cap is brighter on the newer Cometa’s .
This is the included 26650

Left side is the new Cometa and Right side is my original

What are the above (plastic?) discs? Insulating discs for the cell's head with a hole for some protruding spring, cap or whatever in the driver? Why additional tape?
