- Storage: If storing the flashlight for an extended period, remove the battery to prevent potential leakage and damage. Store in a cool, dry place.
- Waterproof Design: The WUBEN E7 features an internal waterproof design (IP68), meaning it is protected against continuous immersion in water. However, always ensure the Type-C charging port cover is properly sealed when not charging to prevent water ingress.

9. Troubleshooting
- Flashlight does not turn on:
- Ensure the battery is correctly inserted with the positive (+) end facing the head.
- Check if the battery is charged. If not, charge it fully.
- Make sure the tail cap is screwed on tightly.
- Check if the flashlight is in lock mode (four clicks to unlock). - Light output is dim or flickers:
- The battery level might be low; recharge the battery.
- Clean the battery contacts and the flashlight's internal contacts with a clean cloth. - Flashlight gets hot quickly on high modes:
- This is normal for high-lumen flashlights due to heat dissipation. Reduce the brightness mode if it becomes uncomfortable to hold. - Charging indicator not working:

- Try a different Type-C cable or power source.
