Flashlight Enthusiast
Review in progress..
The review of the ACE-G, and A10-G will be very similar..as they both have almost exactly the same shape, but different emitters.
They will use the same outdoor beamshots..
The A10-G review can be found here.
Hello Everyone, this will be my 4th review. Wish me luck!
Up for review is a Tiablo ACE-G!
You will be able to preorder the ACE-G from 4sevens, here.
For those of you that haven't heard of this light.. Here's a quick summary of light:
More information can be found in the threads linked below.
Light provided directly by Tiablo.
Background:
The Tiablo ACE-G, released on the 4/2/09 here, is an upgrade of the previous version, released 12/19/08 here.
This flashlight is built to be super uber thrower, with a bit of flood. It is not meant to be EDC'd, it is not meant to be slipped into your pocket as you walk out the door to your date.
This thing is meant to be cradled in your hand as you use it, and blast the lights (pun intended) out of everyone else. Oh, and it tailstands too..
This "G" version is smaller than the original A10, as the brass battery sleeve has been removed (Sorry, I do not have the original version to compare). This light is made for use in universal gun mounts, having a standard 1" barrel. (according to Tiablo, the remote pressure switch will be made available in May).
Packaging pics:
Sleeve covering the actual box, same as the A10-G
Accessories:
Includes your standard 1 sheet instruction manual, 3 spare o-rings of varying sizes, extension tube! :twothumbs , GID tailcap, and warranty card. (blank on mine, also.)
Pics of light:
Picture of the light next to its extension tube
Clear lettering
Close up of the link between the extension tube and the light
Decently Heavy OP reflector.. more on this in the first impressions..
AS you can see, the ACEG pill is much longer compared to the A10G pill..presumably to bring it up to the shorter reflector.
But weird!! It seems Tiablo forgot to place an O-ring here!! oh well.. there's an extra in the oring pack.
Size comparison:
Beamshots:
MG RX-1 MC-E is on the left, Tiablo is on the right.
Outdoor Beamshots:
~90 Feet from fence.
Tiablo A10-G
Tiablo ACE-G
MG RX-1 MC-E
Nitecore D20
Initial impressions:
Where the heck is the Fabled/cursed MC-E DONUT???!!.. ultimate smooth beam!
Cree donut? where did it go! Have you seen it anywhere? Just imagine..a poor donut .. lying in the middle of nowhere….lost.
anyways. this is a heftier light with that extension tube..I find it harder to activate with one hand, as I tend to grip lights towards the middle.
Alright, with my MG RX-1 returned, I see that the RX-1 is a bit more focused compared to the tiablo..
I prefer the tiablo, as you can actually see what's around you
with its extreme floody-ness.
But.. with the extremely low price of the MG RX-1, that may be what budget minded users should opt for.
Edit: In using this light more, I find that it is very useful to unscrew the head.. huge gigantic flood beam for indoor use.... and no reflector losses, either!
The RX-1's head is sadly glued down, so you can't do that
Conclusion:
I find I carry the ACE-G more than I carry the A10.. the super throwing beam isn't all that useful,though it is very, very fun to play with
I also love how the head is not glued down combined the tailstanding capabilities... it will flood an entire room with light!
My favorite part about the light would be the most impressive knurling I have seen. ever.
big kudos to tiablo for this!
Post any requests!!
Come on guys! Comments are needed, as I develop my review style.
