ACID HPA 2000 High Performance Lighting System
**Product Information
**
The High Performance Lighting System is a powerful LED light that provides up to 2000 lumens of light output. The light has 2 CREE XM-L2 LEDs and offers 7 different lighting modes, including High, Mid, Low, Ultra Low, Flash, SOS and Alpine emergency signal. The light is powered by a Panasonic 18650 Li-Ion battery with a capacity of 3400mAh. The light head and the battery are both IP68 rated, providing protection against dust and water immersion up to 1.5 meters. The light comes with various mounting options, including helmet mounts, straps and a headband. The light also comes with a charger that operates on an input voltage of 100-240V AC and an output voltage of 8.4V DC 2A.
Product Usage Instructions
- Before using the light for the first time , make sure to fully charge the battery. To charge the battery, connect the charger to a power source and then connect the battery to the charger. When the battery is fully charged, the charging indicator will turn off.
- Mounting: When mounting the light, make sure the mounts are securely fastened and check for a tight fit. The light can be mounted on a helmet using either the rubber pad or the adhesive pad. The light can also be mounted using the strap or headband.
- Operation: To turn on the light, press and hold the button for 2 seconds. The light will turn on in High mode by default. To switch between modes, press the button once for each mode until you reach the desired mode. To turn off the light, press and hold the button for 2 seconds.
- Battery Care: To extend the life of your battery, avoid exposing it to extreme temperatures or moisture. Always disconnect the light head from the battery when transporting the light.
- Product Care: To clean the light, wipe it with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
- Safety Instructions: Always read and follow the safety instructions provided in the manual. Do not use the light in areas where it may restrict your movement or cause a hazard. The light can generate heat, so avoid contact with flammable materials and your skin. The HPA 2000 is equipped with an overheat protection feature that will automatically reduce the light output if the light becomes too hot. The light is not suitable for underwater use and should not be used as a diving light.
- Disposal: When disposing of the product, follow all local regulations for electronic waste disposal.

HEAT GENERATION
The light housing can get hot when in use. Please keep it away from heat
sensitive and flammable materials and avoid direct contact with your skin. The
HPA 2000 is equipped with an overheat protection feature. If the lamp is not
sufficiently cooled (e.g. by wind on the ride), the light is automatically
reduced in order to lower the temperature. This protects the lamp from
permanent damage.
RUNTIMES
The indicated runtimes are average values. Depending on the outside
temperature and cooling by airflow, the runtimes may differ from the
information.
PROTECTION CLASS IP68
The light head and the battery conform with IP Protection Class 68.
- Full contact protection, dustproof.
- Waterproof when submerged for indefinite periods.
NOTE! The HPA 2000 is not a diving light and is not suited for underwater use.

MOUNTING
MOUNTING ON HELMETS WITH AIR VENTS
Use the helmet mount with the velcro strap to attach it to helmets with air
vents. Stick the one-sided adhesive rubber pad on the back of the helmet
mount. Use the velcro strap to attach the mount to the helmet. If the straps
are too long you can cut them to the right length. Make sure the mount is
securely attached and check it before every activity. Use the extension cable
included in the package contents to carry the battery in a backpack, a cycling
jersey pocket, etc.
MOUNTING ON HELMETS WITHOUT AIR VENTS (DIRT-/FULLFACE-HELMETS)
Use the helmet mount with the double-sided adhesive pad to attach it to helmets without air vents. Stick the double-sided adhesive pad to the bottom of the helmet mount. When attaching the mount, be sure the adhesive pad is stuck to a smooth surface. The surface needs to be clean and free of any grease. Be sure it is securely in place before every activity.
Caution!
The attachment of brackets or objects at a helmet can affect its protective
effect and restrict the user‘s freedom of movement.
MOUNTING ON HEADBAND
The headband has two mounts with the X-Lock mounting system. This allows you to attach the light head in the front and the battery pack in the back.
X-LOCK MOUNTING SYSTEM
The mounts are equipped with the X-Lock mounting system.
This system allows you to attach the light head and the battery to the helmet
mount or the headband. The components can be mounted in 90° steps. This gives
you the option of mounting the battery vertically or horizontally, for
example. Before each activity, check whether the light head and the battery
are locked into the bracket.
CONNECTING
Connect the light plug to the battery pack. Be sure the plugs are securely
connected and you feel them click together. When mounting the light and
battery, check to make sure the connection won’t be lost because of your
movement.
BEAM ANGLE ADJUSTMENT
To adjust the light head, loosen the fastening screw by turning it
counterclockwise. To secure it, turn the fastening screw clockwise again. Make
sure the light head is securely mounted before every activity.
OPERATION BATTERY
BATTERY INDICATOR
To see the current battery capacity, simply press the button once. The display
contains 10 LEDs. One LED represents 10% of the capacity. Example: 7 LEDs =
70% capacity remaining After five seconds the battery charge display will
automatically turn off again.
LIGHT FUNCTION
To activate the light function, hold the button down for two seconds. There
are three different functions: Constant light – Flash light – Moving light You
can switch through the individual functions by pressing the button. To turn it
off, hold the button again for two seconds
CHARGING
To charge the battery, connect it to the charger and plug it into the
electrical socket. While loading, the LED on the charger will show you the
current charge status.
- Red LED is on: battery is charging
- Green LED on: battery is fully charged
OPERATION LIGHT
The lamp can be controlled by the button on the light head or with the remote control. The remote control has a reach of roughly five metres. Ex works the remote control is already paired with the light head.
