Low-voltage Warning Function

1. When the working battery voltage is detected lower than 3.3V, the indicator light will shine automatically to remind charging needed.
2. When the working battery voltage continues to drop lower, the flashlight will downshift to a lower brightness level. When it happens in low output mode, the flashlight will blink three times every five minutes to remind you to recharge the flashlight. To ensure normal use, the flashlight will not turn off automatically until Over-discharge Protection stops the battery from working.

Over-discharge Protection

When the battery voltage is extremely low, the flashlight will turn off automatically to protect the battery from over-discharging.

Over-heat Protection

The flashlight will accumulate a lot of heat when it is working at Turbo output. When the light is overheated up to 65 ℃ or above, the flashlight will automatically downshift the output to prevent the light from overheating. Please reset the Turbo output if needed when temperature drops.

Intelligent Memory Circuit

The flashlight memorizes the last used brightness level except strobe function. The next time you turn it on, it will recall the previously used brightness level in General Mode and Simplified Mode.

Charging

Put the flashlight head into the charger cradle and rotate it until it clicks into the position, match the polarity port of the flashlight and the cradle’s.

When power connects, the indicator light of the charging cradle will turn green without flashlight, the indicator light will turn red with flashlight plugged in, then turns green when charging completely done. The normal charging time is about 3 hours.
