Twist Focus Optic
The G32 utilizes a patented PURE BEAM Focusing Optic system, allowing you to transition between a broad flood beam and a concentrated spot beam.
- To adjust the beam: Grasp the head of the flashlight and twist it clockwise or counter-clockwise.
- Twisting in one direction will expand the beam into an Ultra View Flood Beam, ideal for illuminating a wide area.
- Twisting in the opposite direction will narrow the beam into a Bulls-Eye Spot Beam, providing a focused light for long-range visibility.
