Need help with decision: Tiablo A9 or Surefire C2L

22hornet · Jun 20, 2008

Hello,

I need another flashlight, one that throws at least as well as my 6C Maglite, but which is more compact.

Which would be better?
- Surefire C2L with Malkoff M60
- Tiablo A9

I guess the Tiablo throws better but is bulkier. The real requirement is throw equal (or better) when compared to a 6C Maglite.

Thanks for your opinions.

Kind regards,
Joris

SF C3 (non L)
And Malkoff M60.

Malkoff can handle 3 cells it's not that much longer of a light and you never know when you may need the extra runtime. Just my opinion.

no question, Tiablo A9

For throw, the Tiablo

The Tiablo will out throw the Malkoff no question there.

Hello,

Thanks for the replies. I only fear the Tiablo will be bulkier.
Do you think the Malkoff will outthrow the Maglite 6C already?
I remember a post with pictures of "throw-lights" and a 6D did quite well.
(Maybe the TerraLUX TLE-6EX MiniStar5 SSC P4 U bin LED upgrade
for my 6C might be as good a thrower than the Tiablo A9?)
I just want something smaller...

Kind regards,
Joris
