AXIS® RECHARGEABLE
LED HEADLAMP
Operating and Maintenance Instructions
(ANSI FL-1 Standard)
Runtime is defined as the duration of time from the initial light output
value—defined as 30 seconds after the point the device is first turned
on—using fresh batteries until the light output reaches 10% of the initial
value.
Reserve time is the duration of time from 10% of the initial light output
value down to 0.25 lux
Battery Charging – See Figure 1
Supplied with headlamp: Self-contained lithium rechargeable battery, micro-USB
charging cable.
Princeton Tec suggests using a charger with an output of 5V, 1A. This charger
will fully charge the battery pack in 3 to 4 hours. Slower charging will be
achieved with a charger rated with lower amperage. Some computer USB ports may
not have sufficient output to charge this or any USB rechargeable product.
Under normal usage, the supplied lithium-ion battery pack will last for
approximately 1,000
charge / discharge cycles.
- Red battery charge level LEDs indicate battery state. Red LEDs pulse when charging is in progress.
- Charging has completed when both LEDs are illuminated.
- Low Battery Indication: When the battery level reaches 25% the light will blink once indicating the charge is low.
Once the battery level drops below 20% the light will blink twice and drop to the lowest setting in the current model.
Dial functionality will be disabled to provide the maximum amount of time before the battery is completely drained and the light shuts off.
WARNING!
Do not disassemble; no user-serviceable parts.
General Care and Warnings
- Properly charge the battery to maximize its lifespan. Lithium-ion batteries do not suffer from a “memory effect,” and for battery longevity, it is preferable to charge more frequently if possible, rather than to fully deplete the battery’s charge.
- To avoid damaging your lighting system, use only chargers that meet the approved specifications.
- Axis Rechargeable is not submersible. Submerging in water will damage the lighting system and void the warranty.
- To keep your lighting system looking new, use a mild soap and water solution with a rag or sponge to periodically wipe off dirt.
Switch Operation – See Figure 1
-
A single press activates red mode at 70% output.
-
Double press activates white spot mode at 70% output.
-
Triple press activates white flood mode at 70% output.
-
In any mode, the dial is used for dimming.
– Clockwise dims to 10% output. Once the minimum is achieved, the further rotation will not do anything.
– Counterclockwise brightens to 100% output. Once the maximum is achieved, the further rotation will not do anything.
– Counterclockwise from flood mode activates dual-beam mode. -
A single press occurring more than two seconds after the previous button press will turn the light off.
-
Lockout Mode to prevent accidental activation: Can only be activated during OFF mode. To enter Lockout mode, press and hold the button for three seconds. To indicate success, two red LEDs will flash according to the battery voltage chart (see figure 2).
Troubleshooting
If the Axis Rechargeable fails to light:
- Check the charge state of the battery by either 1. Locking out the light by holding down the power button, or 2. Plugging light into a power source and observing battery charge level LEDs.
- To reset the headlamp if there are any functional errors, press and hold the button for 20 seconds.
