U S E R G U I D E Quick Start Unscrew the tail cap as shown. Take care not to damage the O-rings. You should apply some lubrication to the threads and O- rings to prolong their life Remove and discard the battery insulation cover.
Important Notice [setting your expectations] As soon as you turn the uvBeast on you may say, “Hey this is not very bright” – but UV can never be described as bright. Please remember this device emits majority Dark Light (or light that is not visible).
PLEASE NOTE: When unscrewing the tail cap section please do so carefully and slowly so as to not damage the O-rings. NOTE: O-rings are already fitted to the uvBeast at the threads. These seal the uvBeast from dust, moisture, and water.
to be conservative and so you may even achieve up to 700 to 1000. These are known as “charge cycles” where one-cycle is equivalent to fully charging the cell and then fully discharging the cell. To further optimize the full working life of the 18650 cell it is better practice to charge the cell when it is about 80% depleted rather than fully depleted, although full depletion with a “protected”...

USB- C is a more robust mechanism than its micro-USB predecessor. USB-C cables from other devices are suitable for use with the uvBeast 365nm MINI.
Faster time-to-charge using newer USB-C (and optional use of mains adapter) Your uvBeast V3 Power Pack Edition includes the accessories you need so it’s ready-to-use straight out of the box. Note: Some models may vary with the following accessories. It...
Battery Safety NOTE: Battery damage due to misusage will not be covered under warranty, likewise damage to the V3 365nm MINI caused by 18650 batteries other than the supplied batteries will also not be covered by warranty, except for the recommended batteries which are: 18650 lithium-ion button top ICR, INR, or IMR which are at least 43g in weight (indicating the correct chemistry density).
(in rare cases) needs another charge cycle attempt to "wake up" the cell. Please check out our Help Center & Knowledge Base on our official website here: https://uvbeast.com/apps/help-center Otherwise, please contact us on our site and we'll resolve ASAP.
Replace with a new 18650 battery to check for a defective cell. Light getting “dim” If at any point you find the uvBeast getting slightly “dim” after many hours of continuous operation, it’s usually because the battery is getting low on voltage, and it is time to charge.
Whether you had domestic or commercial applications in mind, the principle is “the darker the conditions the better” to unleash the full power of the uvBeast. However, that sometimes isn’t always possible nor practical (to achieve darkness) so you’ll still get a decent 4-6ft beam range in ambient light conditions.

Technical Section Electromagnetic Spectrum and UV How it all works? The uvBeast V3 365nm emits UV light at 365nm wavelength Depending upon of light in the invisible light spectrum, which is below visible which uvBeast light that we can see. Past the violet at the end of a rainbow.
365nm UV light and you’ll see what we mean. We knew that it would be harder to achieve the same power and intensity as the uvBeast V3 model which emits at a longer 385-395nm wavelength, but we realized it is time for it. Folks are getting much more familiar with UV than back in 2015 when we launched our very first V1 uvBeast.
