    DBS V3 XM-L battery question

    Great topic!! I recently purchased a DBS XM-L, I was tempted to get a lower voltage pill such as a Nailbender so I could use 1 x 18650, however won't this increase the amperage through the tailcap switch to a higher level than what its rated to? cheers,

    2 AA thrower? Do they exist?

    I have this setup except I used a 1xcr123 extension tube on the DBS, I also have one of the first Javelin pills which has an xr-e r2 emitter, I dont think dereelight make these any more as they are now xp-g's ang that dont throw as well. What this all means is you get a 2xAA battery...

    Red LED Light for Coyote Hunting - Recommendations Needed

    I use a Tiablo A9 fitted with a cree xr-c red led over-driven to about 1 amp, it has 3 modes. With the aspheric lens fitted it will locate eyes out to about 300m. The animals perception of greater distance between itself & the light source is increased when using a red light. I also have an...

    Tiablo A7 UI Problem

    The A7 looks similar to the A9 in design (in this tread http://www.candlepowerforums.com/vb/showthread.php?241722-Tiablo-A7-Review-RUNTIMES-BEAMSHOTS-DETAILED-PICS-and-more!! ) and should be reasonably easy to fix if its the circuit thats faulty. Dont bin it. I'm guessing the circuit is 17mm...

    Converting a Tiablo A9 to use 2 x AA batteries?

    Yes kosPap, I've tried your susgestion, I have a solarforce 1xrc123 extension which I think has the same thread as Surefire however it wont fit the Tiablo. I also have a DBS extension which is a close fit in diameter but has a much finer thread, it could be posible to file down the Tiablo's...

    Converting a Tiablo A9 to use 2 x AA batteries?

    Hi, Does anyone know of a 2AA battery tube with a thread size that would screw onto the Tiablo A9 circuit housing? The eagleTac P100A2 tube might be a chance as it has a wider thread section to fit the rcr123a version, Can anyone test this for me as I dont own an EagleTac? Here's a link to a...

    Need a 1AA or 2AA Thrower that can throw 130 Meters

    I once put a Derelight Javelin R2 pill into my Derelight DBS, then I put a 1 x RC123a battery tube extension on so the DBS would accept 2 x AA. Also put a couple of small O rings around the AA's so they dont rattle however a plastic tube insert would work well too. I found this configuration...

    Hunting flashlight recommendations

    Hi grifshrek, I've used both lights as scope mounted & hand held for a few years, some time ago I posted some pics in this thread (scroll down till you find them) http://www.candlepowerforums.com/vb/showthread.php?239724-Tiablo-A9-collimator-head-beamshots.. I prefer the Tiablo for scope...

    Which pill for DBS or CL1H aspherical?

    I totally agree, I think Tiablo should have made a "2nd Gen" version of the A9 specificaly built for mounting to general hunting & varmint rifles, there's a market there. I'm looking for a couple of more A9's to mod for 2 hunters but they are now hard to get, what are Tiablo doing!!:thinking...

    Which pill for DBS or CL1H aspherical?

    I dont have an asph. lens for my DBS, so I can't compare the A9 vs DBS in aspherical configuration. I still have a stock A9 (1amp) and a direct drive A9 (1.8amp) and the direct drive version is incredibly bright when compared to the stock A9. My other A9's now have AMC7135 circuit boards @...

    Which pill for DBS or CL1H aspherical?

    Best throw will be achieved with an XR-E R2 emitter not the XP-G's, Your pill should be the right one as long as its one of the 1.2 amp ones and not an older 1 amp pill, I recently put a 1.4 amp board in to an r2 pill and works very well For multi mode I favour the 3SD pills which are also 1.2...

    Tiablo A10 mod?

    I have a non-G A10 that I'm going to mod sometime. I'm waiting till I can find some EZ900 XRE-R2 WH emitters to use. I'll be putting a 1.4A 4x AMC7135 driver in it but again trying to find a 3 mode, not a single or 20 or more mode circuit. Like the A9 design, the A10's heat sinking should be...

    Is Tiablo going out of business?

    Yes totally agree!!. A9's(XR-E) are now 'out of stock' with most dealers now. I see Kaidomain has smooth reflectors available at less than $7, I just bought a few for spares. I've modded a few A9's & 2 are being used by other hunters, they are amazed at the performance of the torch...

    Aspheric beamshots. Tiablo vs DBS

    Hi guys, Been a while since I've been on the forum & only just found this thread. I'm a real fan of both the Tiablo A9 and the Dereelight DBS. I own quite a few of each and most have been modded in some specific way. I have an A9 aspheric with an R2 WH on a 17mm base being driven around 1.6...
