Stock Tiablo, DBS are good(excellent) up to 200 meters...
We were hunting wild boars on 200 meters distance with no problem...
Of course most of shots are on distances smaller than 100 meters...
Friend overall DBS is much better flashlight...
DBS advantages over Tiablo(stock aspherical versions):
- Upgradeable
- Firmer aspherical head
- It has extension tube and U can run it on 2×18650 or 3 × 123 (depends on tube U took)
- much better switch
- smaller than tiablo, but that is not so important (when used without ext tube)
- better heat transfer
Tiablo only advantage over DBS
- better lenses in aspherical head (running on 2× rcr123 with Q5 emitter on 0,9 amps driver is almost same in throw like DBS aspheric with R2 emitter on 1,2 amps driver running on 2 × 18650)
I don't know if someone modded DBS aspheric? I am interested what U can get if U mod that...
Tiablo needs better switch, better driver and emitter and more firmer aspherical head(it is loose on a threads when on best focusing point) to win DBS...
What I noticed also that Tiablo heat transfer concentrates on driver part while DBS leads temperature out of emitter towards aspherical head. I think that is excellent...
I was a big fan of Tiablo A9 (still am) But I would tell a great lie if I would say that Tiablo is better than DBS because it ain't (at least for now)
But Tiablo manufacturers with just little effort could beat DBS easily...
