Maintenance
Charging
Recharge the flashlight when the light output diminishes. A full charge provides approximately 6-8 hours of use in flashlight mode and 4-6 hours in side light mode. Always use the provided USB-C cable for charging.
Water Resistance
The G1 flashlight is designed with IPX7 water resistance, meaning it can withstand immersion in water up to 1 meter for 30 minutes. However, it is not designed for diving. To maintain its water-resistant properties, ensure the USB-C charging port cover is completely and securely closed at all times when not charging.
