Alternatiewe kragbron: The flashlight also includes a battery holder for 3x AAA batteries (not included). To use AAA batteries, insert them into the holder, then insert the holder into the flashlight body, replacing the Lithium-Ion battery.

3. Operasie

Krag aan/af en helderheidsaanpassing:

The flashlight features a multi-function switch at the tail cap for power control and brightness adjustment.

1. Om die flitslig te skakel ON or AF, press the tail switch fully once.
2. To adjust the brightness (from 10% to 100%), rotate the tail switch. Rotate clockwise to increase brightness and counter-clockwise to decrease brightness.
3. A green pilot lamp next to the switch indicates power status. If the green light flashes, the battery needs charging.

Focus Adjustment (Zoom Function):

The flashlight's head can be extended or retracted to adjust the IR beam width, allowing for both spotlight and floodlight modes.

• Kollig: Stretch the flashlight head forward to narrow the beam, providing a longer-range, more concentrated illumination (up to 1640 feet / 500 meters).
• spreilig: Shorten the flashlight head to widen the beam, covering a larger area for broader observation.

4. Onderhoud

Skoonmaak en versorging:

• Vee die flitsliggaam af met 'n sagte, damp lap om vuilheid en rommel te verwyder.
• Ensure the lens is clean for optimal performance. Use a lens cleaning cloth if necessary.
• Periodically check and clean the battery contacts to ensure good electrical connection.
• Berg die flitslig op 'n koel, droë plek wanneer dit nie gebruik word nie.

Waterweerstand:

The DARKBEAM 501M-850nm IR Flashlight features an IPX65 waterdigte ontwerp, utilizing thickened rubber seals for enhanced water resistance. This makes it suitable for use in wet environments, such as rain or damp conditions. However, it is not designed for submersion in water.

5. Probleemoplossing

Algemene kwessies en oplossings:

• Flitslig skakel nie aan nie:
  • Maak seker dat die battery volledig gelaai is.
  • Check if the battery is inserted with correct polarity.
  • Verify that the tail cap is screwed on tightly. A loose tail cap can prevent electrical contact.
  • If using AAA batteries, ensure they are new and correctly oriented.
• Green pilot lamp flitse:
  • This indicates the battery needs charging. Connect the battery to the charger and a power source.
• IR beam appears weak or inconsistent:
  • Maak seker dat die battery volledig gelaai is.
  • Clean the flashlight lens and the IR LED surface.
  • Adjust the focus by extending or retracting the flashlight head.
• Flashlight gets warm during prolonged use:
  • This is normal for high-power devices. The aluminum alloy body is designed to dissipate heat. If it becomes excessively hot, reduce brightness or turn off for a short period.
