Hmm I thought this one would be a bit more popular because the X1 was asked for when the Z1 was introduced as a host.
Love the design of the X1 and can’t wait to hold it 
And my X1 host is shipped, thanks Jaxman.
im curious about the throw from the reflector.
How far can it throw? can anyone confirm the distance?
Recently I received the stock light and am pretty happy with it. Great looks and it seems like a quality made light. Didn’t do any measurements, but IMO it is a good thrower which almost shines as far as the Cometa.
I got the X1 (stock for now till I get home) and take some measurements, but I can’t wait to read what you think of it?
will34 posted the I.D. is 50.35 mm, so my guess is it's about a 60 mm head size because of the 54.8 O.D. of the reflector, which puts it in the Manker U21 class. The I.D. is the most critical measurement on how good a thrower it could be.
Ahhh - found the dimensions on BangGood, Amazon, and HKEquipment.net - not on the Jaxman listings or thread, that I could find.
Jaxman X1: 154 mm x 59 mm x 35 mm, Manker U21: 148.0 mm (length) x 59.0 mm (head) x 35.8 mm (tube/tail)
The reflector I.D. compares about equal to the Manker U21, and my U21, modded, is doing 1,700 lumens, 240 kcd, 6A at the tail, on a dedomed XPL V6 0D, actually not fully dedomed, sliced and scraped, and not focused well. I would think this X1 is as capable, maybe better - all quality, looks like - reflector, lens, thermally.
The Miller, I just want to say Thank You for getting this X1 available for us,
I was going to just go buy another complete light today and saw the host, what a surprise I assure you, and a great deal ha ha ha, 
Anyhow, Thank You again The Miller…!! You are awesome… :laughing:
Jaxman is awesome, offering these hosts for a fair price, I think it is about the highest % deduction for a host vs complete light, really nice!
My X1 host arrived just now
Wauw what a beautiful light this is
Perfect finished, very nice fins in cool design.
Well protected during shipping.
This light is so beautiful I don’t understand why it is not super popular but I thank those asking for this host when the Z1 host action started!
The Miller this is the first time you’ve had one in your hands you say?
Yes indeed, I remember when I got mine about 6 months ago or so and I just sort of starred at it for must have been an hour, it is some beautiful work, I am surprised that people are not jumping all over these…
I keep thinking about getting another X1 host but decided to buy the new non anodized L6 from Simon today and maybe get another X1 tomorrow haha, who knows.
Enjoy that light it is a beauty for sure.
Yes it is the first time I see this beauty
Here some phone pics
The fins
That light is beautiful and I’m sure you noticed just how well balanced it is at that tri-pod screw in adapter point, you hold this light in one hand and an L2 in the other you can really tell the difference as far as balance, and beauty, 3 layered heat fins, one round and two offset to each other, just feels really good to hold in your hand for sure.
Ordered.

Ha it takes off now al of all of a sudden
Hmm being a bit hung over from a party last night I might just opt to make the X1 work today since I am not really feeling like rock smashing and lifting
First batch of the hosts are sold out.
Will write when the new ones are available!
Is the pill by any wild chance the same as the Z1?
And if not, has anyone talked to Hoop about making a pill for the X1 yet?
Ah let me check that tonight.
Report back on it in a couple of hours.
The pill of the Z1 and X1 are different
The size ia slightly off and the X1 has finer threading and two screws to hold the ledboard
They do not Lego.
So I am staring at a bunch of parts.
The lighted PD tailcap parts of the Cometa seem like a good fit.
The screws cannot be used with the manker ledboarded XPL Hi but it fits the pill nicely.
The gasket provided fits good.
The driver of the Cometa is 17mm
So I have to connect it to the blank driver and to be honest it is freaking me out knowing a driver board has both pos and neg in its traces.
Soooo…
Planning of drilling the center part away with a dremel and to use the spring on the Cometa driver location (have it de-soldered now)
And fill the whole edge of driver and Jaxboard with solder to make it just a ring connected to the pill (not going to do this noisy dremeling now at night.)
As a by product I did found the Kronos X6 tail lighted switch does fit the Convoy C8 that has a Bistro driver in it that did not work reliable with the lighted parts of the Cometa tail so my son now had about the coolest single emitter C8 I can imagine
Grey
OP reflector (this hotspot is so smooth wauw!)
AR coated lens
XPL Hi NW on DTP copper
Bistro driver
Lighted tailcap
Clip
Yeah it does not get much better then that in terms of a C8.
So planning on doing the X1 tomorrow since it deserves it to be assembled asap.
