Operating Instructions
On/Off: Press and hold the main light switch for 0.5 seconds to turn the White light mode on/off. Double-click to turn on Red light mode; press and hold 0.5 seconds to turn off. Press and hold the side light switch for 0.5 seconds to turn Side light mode on/off.
Mode Switching: Double-click the main light switch to move between White and Red light modes. Press and hold the side light switch for 0.5 seconds to enter Side light mode from either.
Output Selection: White light: single click to cycle Moonlight → Low → Med → High. Red light: single click to cycle Low → High. Side light: single click to cycle Red & Blue flash → Red flash → Blue flash → RGB pulse → RGB chase.
Lock/Unlock: With the light off, press and hold both switches simultaneously for 3 seconds to lock (blinks twice on Moonlight) or unlock (activates on Moonlight).
Intelligent Memory Circuit: The light memorizes and recalls the last-used White/Side light output.
Charging
- Turn off the light, then connect the USB Type-C charging cable to the side charging port.
- Indicator glows red while charging and turns green when fully charged.
- Unplug the cable once charging completes.
- Charging voltage: 5V; maximum charging power 1.85W (5V/370mA); does not support fast charging.
- Normal charging time is about 2 hours from depleted to full with a 5V/1A adapter. All modes/outputs work while charging except White High.
Battery Level Indication
- Green light on: 100%-85% (saturated)
- Green light flashing: 85%-50% (sufficient)
- Red light on: 50%-25% (poor)
- Red light flashing: 25%-1% (critical)
Intelligent Overheat Protection
The light steps down output automatically once it reaches 60°C/140°F or above; it gradually recalls the preset level once cooled, though high output levels must be manually reselected.
Low-Voltage Warning
The light downshifts brightness automatically until Moonlight is reached; in Moonlight the indicator blinks red continuously to prompt a recharge (the light will not shut off automatically).
Usage and Maintenance
- Disassembling the sealed head can damage the light and voids the warranty.
- Lock the light to prevent accidental activation during storage or transport.
- Poor battery level or an engaged lock can cause flickering or failure to illuminate — recharge or unlock as needed. Contact your authorized distributor if issues persist.
