A Note about Maximum Output When the flashlight is in High mode, the battery discharge, drive circuit, and LED will all be producing heat, and the lamp head may become extremely hot. Please be cautious when touching it. To protect the battery, circuit, and LED, and to extend the lifetime of the flashlight, we do not recommend continuously running the flashlight on High mode for more than 10 minutes. INSTALLING BATTERIES The FG-B15 is powered by a single CR123/ RCR123 (3 or 3.7 V) battery.
OPERATION The FG-B15 employs a side-button system to power on the flashlight and switch between the different modes. TURNING ON THE FG-B15 Constant On: To turn on the FG-B15, give the side button a quick press. Upon powering on, the flashlight will enter High mode. The next time you power on the flashlight, it will enter the most recent constant-on mode. Temporary On: Press and hold the side button for temporary-on functionality. The flashlight will remain on until you release the side button.

When the flashlight is in Constant-On mode, press and hold the side button to cycle through the three constant-on modes in descending order of brightness.
