NOTICE : The above data has been measured in accordance with the international flashlight testing standards ANSI/NEMA FL1 using 1×18650 Li-ion battery (3.7V 3500mAh). The data may vary slightly during real-world use due to battery type, individual usage habits and environmental factors The runtime for Turbo mode is the testing result before starting temperature regulation.

Operating Instruction

Battery Installation
Insert battery with its positive button end towards the front of the light and tighten the tail cap (polarity direction as illustrated in the diagram)
NOTE:

  1. Ensure the batteries are inserted correctly. The lantern will not operate if batteries are incorrectly inserted.
  2. Avoid direct eye exposure.
  3. When the lantern is kept in a backpack or left unused for extended periods of time, remove all batteries to prevent accidental activation and battery leakage.

Power ON/OFF

Tighten the tail cap to turn the light on, loosen the tail cap to turn the light off. Note: The LR12’s diffuser can be moved by rotating the tube of the light. When the bar is retracted, the LR12 can be used as a flashlight. When extended, the LR12’S diffuser doubles as a lantern.

Brightness adjustment

Turning the LR12 on within a 2-second interval after it is turned off will switch the light to the next available mode, repeat this process to cycle through “low-mid-high-turbo-beacon”. Note: The LR12 does not have memory function, it will always be turned on at the low output after it has been turned off for more than 2 seconds.

ATR (Advanced Temperature Regulation)
With Advanced Temperature Regulation module, the LR12 regulates its output and adapts to the ambient environment, maintaining optimal performance.

Changing Batteries

Batteries should be replaced if the output appears to be dim or the lantern becomes unresponsive.

Maintenance

Wipe the threads every 6 months with clean cloth followed by a thin coating of silicon-base lubricant.
