Pros

  • For now I still the Convoy Z1 is the best value.
  • This difference is why the Z1 is effectively in a class of its own at the top.
  • Convoy's Z1 is one of the best, owing to its large lens and ability to choose the best highest candela emitter for it, and it barely touches 1,000 meters ANSI
  • the Convoy Z1 is about the only one that I know of that garners any respect.
  • The only good recommendation for a flashlight hat has a zoom mechanism is the Convoy Z1.

Cons

  • You can put an SFT42R in the Convoy Z1. It'll put out roughly 2,500 lumens on Turbo. That's more lumens than just about any LEP you can buy on the market... And that Z1+SFT42R can't even come close to sniffing anything near a 6...

The round emitters made the Z1 SOOOOOOOOOO much better. Specifically because it's a round emitter, meaning the projection of the hotspot into a distant spot will look round.

These round die SFTs are amazing with that large aspherical of the Z1.

Convoy Z1 with SFT42R or maybe SFT70 will be the closest thing to the video, as it's also a zoom light, probably the only zoom lights with decent quality
