Battery Charging

The Fast red dot fusion sight adopts two CR123/CR123A batteries for power supply, with the normal power supply time up to 4 hours. The battery should be fully charged before first use.
Battery Replacement and Installation

• Rotate the battery cover handle clockwise;
• Hold the handle and pull it out;
• Install two CR123 batteries into the battery compartment according to the positive and negative poles;
• Install the battery cover back in the correct direction;
• Rotate the battery cover handle anticlockwise, lock the battery compartment cover, and fix it to the corresponding position.

Note:

1.  When the USB-C cable is used for power supply, the USB-C cable will be preferred for power supply, and the battery will be stopped.
2. The product supports 3V and 3.7V batteries. To ensure the correct display of the power level, please select the correct battery voltage in the menu.

Safety Precautions

• When charging, please use the 5V2A power adapter compatible with the device. Using any other type of adapter may cause irreversible damage to the battery or the adapter itself;
• If the device is not in use for a long time, the battery shall be taken out of the device and stored in a dry place.
• Do not charge the device immediately after it is moved to a warm environment from a cold environment. Wait for 30 to 40 minutes for preheating.
• If the charger is modified or damaged, do not use it;
• The device shall be used at the temperature of 0℃~+40℃, under which the battery is of the best performance, or else the battery activity will be decreased significantly.
• When charging a lithium-ion battery, please do not leave the battery unattended;
• Do not connect the battery to the power supply for more than 24 hours after it is already fully charged;
• The device is equipped with a short circuit protection system, but operations or conditions that may lead to a short circuit should be avoided.
• The recommended operating temperature for the device is from -20°C to +40°C. If the product is used beyond this temperature range, it can work normally, but the battery life may be shortened.
• When the device is used under sub-zero temperature, the battery capacity drops. This is normal and does not indicate a defect.

External Power Supply

The Fast red dot fusion sight supports external power supplies such as phone chargers (5V2A) or a computer USB interface.

• Connect the external power supply to the USB-C cable (10) of the Fast red dot fusion sight;
