Tiablo A10: the new king of throw?

[owner]

The development of Tiablo A10 is over. It is still a CREE 7090 XR-E WC Q5 LED flashlight, with a bigger and deeper smooth reflector: 50mm*50mm.

Nice, what is the MSRP?

It will be USD130.

In theory a larger reflector means a smaller hotspot but I don't think it is deep enough compared to its diameter to beat the DBS. It only has a Q5, not an R2 so it may beat the DBS if its modded, otherwise I don't think it will. Beamshots!

Interesting...

Very nice looking light
Will this be the next challenger to the DBS ?
Release date please ?

 

[EngrPaul]

Nice tailcap.

 

[tx101]

I like the TB style body

Looks nice. Can't wait to see how it does compare with the DBS.

 

[Flic]

I'm excited. Finally something new from one of my favourite companies. I can hardly wait for a comparison to my much loved A9 and DBS.

Also, given the size, I hope Tiablo offers a good quality holster for this one. At least as an accessory (and hopefuly not as ugly as the one they produced for the A9).

Does it run on (2) CR123s or an18650? Looking forward to ordering an A10 ASAP.

The input range is 2.7-8.5V and it supports CR123 x 2 or 16340 x 2 or 18650 x 1.

 

[1996alnl]

Can't wait for the review.

well, the Tiablo A9 supported all too, the question is, will it be regulated, full brightness?

and two, its gonna have to be MUCH more powerful than a DBS if its gonna cost the same and not be upgradable.

Not regulated. Runtime to 50% using 2600mAh 18650 cell is 4 hours. Constatnt current range: 4-8,5V.

 

[Sgt. LED]

4 hours to 50%?

Well there ya go, it won't be beating the DBS. BUT hey maybe it does for the first few minutes.

 

[PhantomPhoton]

Nice reflector, but if it isn't regulated on 18650 it's not worth buying. I do look forward to a shootout with the DBS though.
Does it have any sort of UI? Or is it a simple on/off?

 

[WadeF]

Can't wait for some lux readings by those who have a DBS, Spear, etc. Looks big though. Anyone know the dimensions of the DBS reflector? I should get myself a caliper.

There's quite a lot of technical info including a suggested intro-price of 600 Yuan for China/Taiwan and then a regular price of 700 Yuan/130 USD by the maker. It looks like a really interesting light, I'll be watching for intro offers for CPF members!

It seems to be the same guy/s that gave us the MRV design and then the Tiablo A8/A9 so it's probably going to be top notch.
