The Tiablo ACE-G is very similar to the original ACE. The head comes in three basic parts, the bezel, middle and rear section. The bezel has shallow crenellations which allow light to shine through when placed head-down. The bezel can be easily unscrewed for access+ to the lens. The middle section of the head houses the large reflector used in the ACE. It is textured, the finish is excellent with no noticeable defects. The rear section of the head houses the LED module. The LED and reflector are well-aligned, perhaps just a hair off-center. The "+" contact for the battery is slightly raised from the electronics PCB in the head, so flat-topped 18650 cells may be used without problems. The exterior of the head has design elements with smooth design lines, a pair of thick fins are machined towards the rear of the head which helps with grip when the light is held in an over-hand grip.
The ACE-G is a rather large and hefty light, and even larger when using the extended battery tube. The battery tube has a very aggressive texture which provides very good grip. It's not really knurling in the traditional sense, rather a checkered grid design. The extended battery tube now matches the main battery tube in terms of design, unlike the earlier ACE. Threads on either end of the battery tube are thick and cleanly cut, they mate with the head and tail cap very smoothly. No signs of cross-threading or grinding was experienced during testing. Very thick rubber o-rings are placed on either ends of the battery tube which should provide very good moisture seals. The battery tube has robust thick walls but unlike the ACE, does not have a brass sleeve insert lining it's inner side. Threads on the rear end are anodized so you can effectively lock-out the light from activation by simply loosening the tail cap. Overall finish of the Type 3 anodizing is smooth and consistent throughout the exterior surface of the ACE-G, no flaws to be found. The tail cap is large and slightly wider than the battery tube thus helps when the ACE-G is held in a cigar-style grip. It has four flat faces machined around it with the Tiablo logo machined on each side. The rear end of the switch cap is also crenellated, but these are deeper than those on the bezel. They allow for easy activation of the switch while still allowing the light to stand of its tail. There are also four holes for lanyard attachments on each point of the crenellation. The single-mode switch is a forward push button with average travel, average tension and produces an audible and tactile feedback
