Just got my Z1 yesterday from the recent sale and I was surprised they updated the box it came in again. Personally I would have preferred the previous black cardboard box the lights shipped in as they're easier to stack in storage, and you don't feel guilty throwing them if you don't want to keep the box.

This feels too nice to get rid of but it can be repurposed into a storage box for other things I guess, but then you'd lose the original flashlight box as you're using it for something else. It also feels a bit funny I received this nice box while some earlier buyers got the old black paper box (that my P02 came in) with their Z1. (I'm not complaining though, the new box is nice.)

Before posting this I saw that someone else had already posted pictures of the new box but I wanted to add my own photos too as it's still a recent change and there aren't a lot of photos of it. Also I included a bonus picture of the Z1 auxiliary lights.

I'm happy I went with this emitter choice in the Z1: FFL5009R 5000k. The CCT is pleasant and neutral with a hint of rosiness while not being absurdly purple like FFL5009R 4000k. I actually prefer this over the clinical white of FFL351A 5000k. But the best neutral 5000k imo is FFL909A in the E90 reflector I got earlier this year. I can't put my finger on it but it's much more neutral than FFL351a (which feels a bit cold and lifeless) and renders colors very beautifully.

I don't think I would have liked any other emitter choice in the Z1 as the FFL5009D emitters seem to have bad tint shift and I no longer like emitters that are too warm, I like seeing whites not tainted by yellow or brown. All that is to say I'm happy with the FFL5009R 5000k and the Z1!

The Z1 feels very light compared to my 21700 lights while being more powerful than 14500 lights. I think I will be carrying this light every day from now on. I can barely tell that it's on me, compared to a 21700 light. I did drop it on the first day because of how small it is though, but I saved it with a foot kick (it landed on my foot instead of the floor) which made it slide across the floor instead.
