4. Operating Instructions

The Pokelit AA flashlight is operated via its tactical tail switch.

4.1 Power On/Off

• To Turn On: Fully press the tail switch until it clicks.

4.2 Mode Switching

The flashlight features three brightness modes: Low, Medium, and High. It also has a mode memory function.

• To Cycle Modes: With the flashlight on, quickly turn it off and then back on within 4-5 seconds. Each quick off/on cycle will advance the mode (Low → Medium → High → Low).
• Mode Memory: If the flashlight is left off for more than 4-5 seconds, it will remember the last used brightness mode and turn on in that mode.
• Momentary On: A half-press of the tail switch will provide momentary illumination. Releasing the switch turns the light off.

5. Maintenance

5.1 Cleaning

• Wipe the flashlight body with a clean, soft cloth.
• For stubborn dirt, use a slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
• Keep the lens clean for optimal light output.

5.2 Battery Care

• If using the rechargeable battery, charge it regularly to maintain performance.
• If using standard AA batteries, replace them when the light output diminishes.
• Remove batteries if the flashlight will not be used for an extended period to prevent leakage.

5.3 O-Rings and Threads

• Periodically inspect the O-rings for wear and tear. Replace if damaged to maintain water resistance.
• Apply a thin layer of silicone grease to the threads and O-rings to ensure smooth operation and water sealing.

6. Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your ACEBEAM Pokelit AA flashlight, refer to the following common problems and solutions:

• Flashlight does not turn on:
  • Ensure the tail cap is fully tightened. A loose tail cap can prevent electrical contact.
  • Check the battery. If using the rechargeable battery, ensure it is charged. If using a standard AA battery, ensure it is fresh and correctly oriented.
  • Clean the battery contacts and flashlight threads with a clean cloth.
• Light output is dim or flickers:
  • The battery may be low. Recharge the Lithium-Ion battery or replace the AA battery.
  • Ensure the battery is making proper contact.
• Flashlight gets warm on High mode:
  • This is normal for high-output LED flashlights. The heat generated is dissipated through the aluminum body. If it becomes excessively hot, the flashlight may automatically reduce output to prevent damage.
• Anodizing wear:
  • The anodized finish may show wear over time, especially if carried with other metal objects. This is cosmetic and does not affect performance.

If problems persist, please contact ACEBEAM customer support.
