THX for info…
Βut if you look at the BG’s site,you understand that they have begin to sell the light already. http://www.banggood.com/CPFItalia-COMETA-2016-Cree-XPL-HI-8-Mode-1300LM-26650-LED-Flashlight-p-1048342.html, while yesterday,they had written that if we were interested,we had to tick an alert box.
Begin to sell the light???
Where you look this? I see only a pre-sale page.
You forgot the word “coming soon” :laughing:
Thanks for the update!
Do you know by chance if the light will be stocked from the EU warehouse straight away?
The ones for sale to everybody may not be exactly the same as the ones bundled for the group buy.
That’s why they were checking samples — to know they were doing their best to make these.
Sometimes what’s actually sent out matches the very best samples provided. We can hope.
I had seen this yesterday,but I think that for sometime,they had changed the page to a selling page.
Anyway,mea culpa. 
Well Cyberscudo, thanks
We all understand that people who you need to provide the info are having their weekends too, so I for one will patiently wait for an update Monday.
Seriously relax. This is the weekend, let the man chill out. This is not a life or death situation, I’m sure if he gets an update he’ll let us know.
Cyberescudo, Thank you Very Much for the update. 
Best Regards,
George
Will it have the 2016 on the head?
Relax, they always put up a web page before the group buy code is live. Every. Single. Time. And a few people always get a little antsy. Every. Single. Time.
To my knowledge, no one has ever lost their spot in a group buy because of this. Just don’t save the code for a month or more, chances are you will miss out then.
Yes.
In for 1 nw
Sorry, yet another question. What is the min/max length of cells that this light will take?
Also, what is the maximum width for 18650s to fit in the 18650 adaptor? (e.g will “fatter” protected 18650 cells fit)
Thanks.
It has springs at both the driver & at the switch.
Re the 18650 adaptor, maybe Cyberescudo &/or Neal/Banggood can answer.
Best Regards,
George
If you hop into a hardware store and buy yourself a set of rubber rings roughly the proper size you can use 2 or 3 thick ones to hold the 18650 cells.
I have an array of 18650 holders but only if they fit tightly they wi not rattle, so in my box with cells I now have a bunch of rings to use instead, much easier
Thanks for the tip!
Is it possible to put the battery Extension from the “factory” JAx Z1 on the Cometa and insert two 26650 batteries- will it run, or is not good for the torch? regards
You will blow the driver. The driver used in the Cometa is designed for 4.2V, ie 1 LiIon battery only.
Best Regards,
George
