5.2 Magnetic Base Functionality

The magnetic base allows the flashlight to be securely attached to ferrous metal surfaces, providing hands-free illumination. This is useful for automotive repairs, workshop tasks, or other situations requiring directed light without holding the device.

6. Maintenance

6.1 Cleaning

Regularly clean the flashlight body with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents that could damage the anodized finish.

6.2 O-Ring Maintenance

To maintain the IPX8 waterproof rating, periodically inspect and lubricate the O-rings with silicone grease. Replace O-rings if they appear damaged or worn. Spare O-rings are included in the package.

6.3 Battery Care

The integrated lithium-ion battery should be charged regularly, even if the flashlight is not in frequent use, to prolong its lifespan. Avoid fully discharging the battery for extended periods.

7. Troubleshooting

• Flashlight does not turn on:
  • Ensure the battery is charged. Connect the flashlight to the charging cable and check the indicator light.
  • Verify the side switch is being pressed and held for the correct duration (approx. 0.5 seconds).
• Light output is dim or flickers:
  • The battery may be low. Recharge the flashlight.
  • Ensure the lens is clean and free from obstructions.
• Flashlight gets hot during use:
  • High brightness modes (especially Turbo) generate significant heat. This is normal. The flashlight may automatically step down brightness to prevent overheating.
• Magnetic charging not working:
  • Ensure the magnetic cable is properly seated and making good contact with the charging port.
  • Try a different USB power source.
  • Clean the charging contacts on both the flashlight and the cable.
