Hi Mike and forum,
First, let me say thanks Mike for the really nice Tiablo A9 Q5--excellent light, great quality.
But...being a flashaholic, and not having a HID...inquiring minds want to know...
1. Shark 1 availablility and delivery date?
2. Why 6000k? Would like something lower in the spectrum.
3. How long to charge?
4. Runtimes--pretty accurate?

With the led tailcap and dual output this thing looks killer. Have you actually seen it? Let us know what you can Mike.

Hey fordwillman,
Thanks for the kind words!
Yah the Tiablo is a great flashlight. Customers were so hot for them, I had a customer talk me out of my personal Tiablo A9S so I can't wait for the next batch to arrive next week.

On with your questions
1. We have some coming in about 12 days.
2. Runs on a DC ballast and these are the only bulbs available at a reasonable price.
3. Charging time would be 2.5 hours
4. Yes with a 5 minute + or –

Yes when they first came out we had a few but they sold out quickly. I really liked the option for a high and low and the multi function tail cap is easy to cycle through all the options. It uses the same bulb as the Boxer 24W and looked to be similar in beam flood and throw.

Mike, i haven´t understood operation of main lamp..
It says "rotary on/off switch", but there is some switch in body so please lighten me :candle:

I do believe the switch in the body is for hi/low.
