1、Regalight WT1. 14 600 Lux in throw at one metre. Two CR123A.
Tiablo A9 . 23 000 Lux in throw at one metre. Two CR123A

but The A9's Reflector is more larger than WT1.

2、Battery draw:
WT1、18650: 850 mA.
CR123: 780 mA.

A9 、18650 :900 mA
CR123: 850 mA
3、This is mini review, in my apprehension they are both good light . but I think it is inequitable bout,because The A9's Reflector is more larger than WT1 ,they are different level light. and the prices different level.

I like the WT1 as a cheaper and smaller alternative to the bigger throwers. Neat! I have mine with the smooth reflector - throw drops to 8000 but is better for short-medium use.

I'd been avoiding the WT1 because it was only 4mm shorter than the A9, A8, or DBS v2. But it looks smaller in your picture...?

I have a MA6 and it seems to me like a much better choice than the WT1 for a smaller thrower. But I have always liked the WT1 for just about everything else :)

tubor, don't you mean OP?

also, I've been looking into the MA1 since it came out, but can't find a few details. do you know how long it runs on high? (w/ NiMH, Eneloop, or alkaline)

Yes I meant OP!

I haven't done a proper runtime test yet but I've just changed the battery after about an hour's usage (after it dimmed a bit).

I really like the ergonomics of it as an indoor/garden light and it feels very well built.

thanks. I have a MA6, and I have to agree with you about Tiablo's build.
