the driverboard appears correct, the serial number is not one of the fake Dealextreme ones either.

Yes, it's the new box from Tiablo. The old box is black.

Looks to be legitimate. The box actually looks like their old style boxes. Your A9 is their older version... well, not that old... but the new ones don't have CREEWCQ in their serial numbers, and the inscriptions are a little different.

Aren't they Chinese lights to begin with? How would you be able to tell if it was fake and what would be the difference? :nana:

Heh heh... a chinese copy of a chinese light. Highly possible (unfortunately), but hopefully not the case this time.

I was looking at buying a Solarforce L2 on ebay and was wondering if there's such a thing as a "fake" L2, which is a "fake" surefire light to start with.

You can resize them at your host site if you wish. For example, if you're using Photobucket go to the large blue "Upload Images & Videos" button and just below that you'll see "(more options)" click on that and set the max size to 800x600 or smaller.
