DESIGN PROCESS
We have designed a product with an ideal form factor. Its small width makes it very easy to use, with powerful lighting without being a massive ashlight . There is an aesthetic redesign, changing its appearance slightly thanks to hard anodizing without pigment and more minimalist and stylized lines. We have used a dierent LED than previous versions of Tigershark. There is an improvement in the concentration of the main beam (spot), getting a much more penetrating light.
LIGHT POWER AND RUNTIME
This ashlight has a power of 850 lumens in a very small size. The power is constant during the 2 hours and 30 minutes of runtime. In 2012 we presented our rst version of the Tigershark, with 750 lumens.
OPTICAL SYSTEM
The combination of a specially selected quality LED and the aluminium reector designed by ARTEK® makes possible to have a beam of more than 30.000 lux at one meter. The previous version did not exceed 17.000 lux.
C.T.P.
It has a temperature control that oers security. This ashlight can be used on surface use without any risk, since in the event of an increase in temperature, the power is regulated gently, avoiding dangerous temperatures.
BATTERY WARNING AND SAVING MODE
The Tigershark mk2 light has a low battery warning device. With a few ashes, it alerts us that the battery is low. Automatically, after ashes, the power drops to the level of battery saving mode. In this way the remaining autonomy increases and we do not run out of light, allowing us to access our backup focus if necessary.
SIZE - PERFORMANCE RATIO
To be able to deliver 850 lumens for 2 hours and 30 minutes makes it necessary to use two high-capacity lithium batteries. Still, we have a very contained size.
QUALITY
All components of this unit, from the battery to the LED itself, are extremely well cared for. The material used for the ashlight body is machined aeronautical grade aluminium anodized according to military specications. The LED is manufactured by CREE®, but it is also carefully selected to have the performance we demand. The reector is designed to provide a concentrated beam with high eciency. The batteries are lithium batteries, with high capacity and no memory effect.
MADE IN SPAIN
Like all our ashlight, it is designed and manufactured in Spain, from the SMD welding process into the PCB, to the machining and anodizing of the aluminum body. In addition, unit has its own unique serial number that identifies it.
