Noctigon Copy. Shaped like a Nocti but look at the cut outs for the leads, 2 lead holes, 2 narrow hold down holes. My 20mm Noctigons measure 20.5mm this copy measureās 19.8mm. Probably why you have a bigger clearance around the Cometa pill mcpcb pocket, board can move around more?
Ahhh, you know I didn't look close, but not surprising! Thought the X6/X5 threads said they were painted over. Maybe that was in the early phases? Hhmm - ok, good to know... So does that mean the X6/X5's were these same copies?
Thanx KB1428!
Yep, your welcome Tom! I used a real Noctigon and the emitter is centered and less chance of clipping the emitter pad corner when you put the cover on, probably help with the leads touching the cover too, since you wonāt have all that slop!! 
Check out the driver pocket 18mm O.D. 16mm I.D. not the same as my JAX X6 pill, probably the X6 pill is the same as the Z1 ? Not the cometa pill when it comes to driver component clearance?? 
Take a look at the solder pads on the Noctigon compared to the BLF Kronos? See a difference? Look at the difference in the DTP pads too???
Oh boy, gotta take a better look for sure now. Your pics really tell the story of basic differences - another case of apparent cloning. Dunno, must have missed this if it was discussed and noted before. Sooo many risks I'd think with a new MCPCB, different manufacturer, but really, Hank's were not so perfect and consistent over time - it's been detailed here on BLF, and emailing with Hank, he's had some stories of bad batch's, and bad pieces, etc.. But I always liked Hank's own QC with his knowledge and concerns, and good designs.
I'm gonna swap out the LED anyways, probably de-domed XP-L V6, so yep - go with a true Noctigon then to get it well centered, like you said. Could really reflow the noctigon in there, specially if it's a snug nice fit, then screw the cover (not screw actually) if I want to, black it all out.
The one that Melted Down, I direct solder bonded a 20mm Noctigon XP board to the pill, and reflowed a 5700k HI at the same time. Surface tension keeps it lined up to the pill holes for the leads, but I still use the round tooth pics to keep it located. Same if I ever want to reflow another emitter? Iāll do the same to the other (Cometa ) one if it gives me any trouble!! 
But so far the Kapton Tap is holding the emitter board in place, and I had it apart a couple times so far?? :innocent:
I've often screwed down MCPCB's in zoomies, like this ZeusRay:
or this UF-T20:
Normally I don't care much about artifacts - they really aren't typically very bright anyways, but if you are fussy bout the beam, then blacking out the top surface area helps.
Tom while your in there, check for the High spot on the pillā¦.
Ha! Theres my Cometa driver pocket and driver Measurements /dimensions!!
Thanks for the feed back guys i tried to fix the temp problems but i couldnāt lol clicked her so many times! I added a video with beam shots!
Does your battery check work? A few people with the BLF X6/X5 reported their batter check showed 2.5 even with a fully charged battery and it made the light step down in every mode.
What if we change the brass to a copper pill?
I "fixed" mine last night. So, to disable temperature monitoring and kick-down:
Liking the beam shots & video. This actually looks like a nice performing light, throw sounds good & I like the āwall of lightā type flood zoomies give, this one looks like the flood actually throws a little bit as well, lower powered lights are usually very short ranged I find.
I just hope they sort the problems out for the EU batch and I might still consider picking one up after deciding to give it a miss when all the problems erupted.
It would be nice to not have to start stripping the thing down to fix problems before using it, especially when the issues arenāt caused by hot rodding a light to death as some use as an excuse, its just basic mechanical fitting type issues rather than advanced electronics!
I gotta figure out those highly impactive bullet pointsā¦
ok. This has probably been explained/linked/ref'ed a couple dozen times, maybe by you alone.
So I'm trying... Sorry.
Thanks guys! I was full clicking i probably didnāt read what you wrote properly dale then i didnāt read it properly again because it took me like 5 goes to release i had to click while in strobe mode after 7 flashes lol! I need a slap to the back of the head i believe!
Sorry Tom, what I meant was simply that the bullet point dot to start a line is attracting to the eye and separates the highlights very well. I donāt know how to do that. It helps make the details more presentable.
testing:

ā¢ C

(it works thanks Tom)
Some times posting on here is a bitch like i have lines forming in the middle and it will still go left side even though it is marked left and forget writing on Microsoft word and pasting here it really hates it lol!
Okay i finally done a video review two weeks later blah better late then never right?
