Battery installation

1. Insert batteries with the positive (+) and negative (-) ends
corresponding to the diagram on the inside of the battery
compartment.
2. Tighten the tail cap by aligning the two gold pins on the inside of the
tail cap with the corresponding holes on the flashlight body and rotate
clockwise.
Tips
Inserting batteries in a dark environment: Two of the four battery slots in
the EA8's battery compartment feature grooves indicating that batteries
should be inserted with the negative (-) ends facing forward, while the two
slots with no grooves require the batteries to be inserted with the positive
(+) ends facing forward. In this way, batteries can be inserted correctly
through tactile feedback alone.
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
1. Insert batteries using the image on the inside of the battery
compartment as a reference.
2. Do not mix rechargeable and non-rechargeable batteries.
3. Do not mix batteries of different types/brands.
General Operation
The EA8 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 EA8 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.
