Still we/the guys from CPI Italia don’t know the price, but currently 180 flashlights are booked ! 
Aaagh...the cat is out of the bag! 
Our sample should be here next week 
. Estimated cost will be $45. The goal is to reach 500 units combined.
Cyberesudo has worked very hard on this over at CPFi. The light is officially named the CPFi Comet (English translation)
While we have no official affiliation between BLF and CPFi, they do in fact support us in our group buys so the least we can do is support them. Afterall, we all have the same problem. LOL
Once the sample gets here (one of only two), and it should essentially be a final sample sans engraving (but not 100% sure), I will post a review, as will JM, Kronos, etc. etc. From what I have seen so far...this thing is going to be a winner. Savings over stock unit, BLF driver, and XPL Hi...all in a quality zoom with at least 200kcd
If interested please post so Cyberescudo can start a list here for BLF members.
Actually I don't think all the issues have been worked out w/bistro on the 25, but haven't heard any new news for a while.
Sounds like an awesome group buy though, great job on getting it together. I really like my JAX Z1 at 216 kcd and ~1300 lumens (resistor mod on stock driver, de-domed XM-L2 U4 1C).
$45 shipped would be attractive
Perhaps it's the angle of the pic in OP, but does the lens still have that sexy AR coating like a stock Z1? Or is it a different coating?
Looks like Neal has had another run of the A6 drivers made, this time in Black. Maybe that means a new manufacturer with better quality control than before?
Is the Z1 a slide-to-zoom light? I never paid attention before.
No, it is a rotating zoom. The UI is not TK's Bistro. It is just like the A6.
$45 shipped is where we are going. CPFi already has 170 on the list. 330 at BLF should be a piece of cake. ;)
Double AR coating.
Now at CPFItalia we have 184 on the list. 
I' m in - throw me on the list for 1x 1A!
;-)
Interested in 2x CW “1A”
Thank You
This sound perfect
I'm in 
Hi,
How does this compare to the Convoy L2 in terms of light throw…
Looks like a nice light! Can anyone tell me how this would compare to a similarly equipped (LED, Driver) UF-1504?
I was looking at the 1504 host last night thinking I should build myself one (I don’t have any zoomie’s larger than AA/14500).
In for one!
I have updated the first post. 0:)
Put me down for one nw please.
Ugh, $45 is a good price, which means it is very tempting. Did I say ugh? Between this group buy, and others I suspect are coming, maybe I need another job for 2016.
UF 1504, DD, XPL Hi around 350kcd
Thanks, I think I’ll stick with building the 1504, it’s more fun when something can go wrong.
This still looks like a great “out of the box” performer!
