Operating Instructions

The S1A Baton features a side switch for all operations.

  • Turning On/Off:

    Single click the side switch to turn the flashlight ON/OFF.

  • Changing Brightness Levels:

    When the flashlight is ON, press and hold the side switch to cycle through Moonlight, Low, Medium, and High modes. Release the switch to select the desired brightness level. The flashlight has a memory function and will turn on in the last used mode (except Turbo and Strobe).

  • Moonlight Mode:

    When the flashlight is OFF, press and hold the side switch for approximately one second to directly access Moonlight mode.

  • Turbo Mode:

    Double click the side switch quickly to activate Turbo mode (550 lumens). Double click again to return to the previous mode. Note: Turbo mode is only available when powered by a 14500 rechargeable battery. When using an AA battery, the maximum output is 220 lumens (High mode). The thermal protection program will limit Turbo mode to 1 minute, then gradually reduce brightness to 50% over another minute.

  • Strobe Mode:

    Triple click the side switch quickly to activate Strobe mode. Single click to exit Strobe mode.

  • Timer Function:

    The S1A Baton has a built-in timer function. Double click and hold the side switch from the ON state to activate the timer. One blink indicates a 3-minute short timer, and two blinks indicate a 9-minute long timer. To switch between timers, double click and hold again. The flashlight will automatically turn off when the timer expires.

Maintenance

  • Cleaning:

    Clean the flashlight body with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.

  • O-Ring Lubrication:

    To maintain the IPX8 waterproof rating, periodically lubricate the O-rings with silicone grease. Replace O-rings if they appear damaged or worn.

  • Battery Care:

    If the flashlight will not be used for an extended period, remove the battery to prevent leakage and potential damage to the flashlight.

  • Thread Cleaning:

    Keep the threads of the tail cap clean to ensure proper electrical contact and smooth operation.
