Dear Colleagues,

I managed to make time-resolved photometry of this transient, via the Virtual Telescope's robotic facility in Italy, covering it for 5.3 hours. Observations where unfiltered.

I detected a clear, periodic modulation, with a full amplitude of 0.1 mag, likely resembling (early?) superhumps.

I period analysis, via PDM, provided an estimate for the period of P(h)= 1.52 hours.

Data will be sent to Kyoto for further analysis.

Best
