EC25

Battery installation

1. Unscrew the tail cap in a counter-clockwise direction.
2. Insert one 18650 battery or two CR123 batteries with the positive pole
pointing forward (toward the light head).
Note: After loading the batteries, the power indicator light will blink to
indicate the battery voltage. Please refer to the "Power Tips"
section of this manual for details.
WARNING
Ensure batteries are inserted with the positive (+) end pointing to the
head. The EC25 will not operate with incorrect installation.
General Operation
The EC25 utilizes a 2-stage switch similar to a camera shutter button.
The light's numerous functions are selected according to the depth the
switch is pressed. The EC25 has two modes: Daily mode and Search /
Turbo mode.
Operating In Daily Mode
1. With the light turned off, press the switch partway down and release
within a second to enter daily mode.
2. Daily mode contains four brightness levels: ultra-low, low, medium, and
high. Pressing the switch partway down in quick succession will cycle
through these modes. Pressing the switch partway down and holding
for more than one second when in daily mode will enter into turbo
mode. See Turbo / Search mode instructions below.
3. The light is turned off (put into standby mode) by pressing the button
all the way down and releasing within a second. This will also
memorize the last daily mode used.
4. Daily mode has a momentary function which allows the light to be
turned on only when the switch is held. With the light turned off, press
the switch partway down and hold to activate daily mode's momentary
function. The light will turn off the moment the switch is released.
Operating in Search / Turbo Mode
1. With the light turned off, press the switch all the way down and release
within one second to enter turbo mode. To cycle between high and
turbo modes press the button partway down while in turbo mode.
2. To turn the light off when in turbo mode, once again press the button all
the way down and release within one second.
3. Turbo / search mode has a momentary function which allows the light
to be turned on only when the switch is held. Pressing the switch all
the way down and holding will activate Turbo / Search mode's
momentary function. The light will turn off the moment the switch is
released.
NB: For user safety and to prevent overheating / failure, the EC25 will
automatically switch to high mode after three minutes of use in Turbo
mode. Half press and hold the switch to re-activate Turbo.
