Adjustable Handle
Halcyon’s unique adjustable handle allows divers to
quickly set height and width without tools and to
readjust before, after, or during the dive. The handle
also swivels forward to reduce size and protect the
front lens. In order to rotate or adjust the handle
height, loosen the winding knob on the side and place
the handle in the desired position. Width can be set by
gently expanding the sliding part of the handle. This
width adjustment is provided by two friction screws in
the handle. These should allow easy movement of the
handle. The handle may be quickly adjusted for either
hand by loosening the winding knob and rotating to the
opposite side. You can change the location of the thumb
support by removing the attachment plate and rotating
the entire handle assembly.
Attachment Points
There are two main attachment points on your Halcyon
Flare
™
/Focus
™
. You can attach a bolt snap to the slot at
the top of the handle adjustment. You may also attach
a bolt snap or temporary attachment to the rear of the
light head.
Focus™ Knob
The Halcyon Focus
™
allows a full range of adjustability.
Turning the adjustment knob clockwise provides a
tighter beam. As the focus becomes near the maximum
you will note a progressively square beam pattern. At full
focus you will actually be able to see the LED diode. You
have reached the maximum possible focus. Turn counter
clockwise to expand the beam into a flood which is an
excellent way to see greater detail in your surroundings
and/or provide good video lighting support.
Battery Pack
The tiny footprint of the Halcyon battery pack is matched
by ease of use and convenient modularity. This small pack
is constructed from a solid piece of Delrin and runs at full
power for more than five hours; half power extends use
to an amazing 15 hours. You can also change batteries
in the field by rotating the battery counterclockwise
and removing the battery from the tether. You should
ensure the O-rings are clean and lubricated to enhance
easy installation/removal of the battery pack. This same
battery can be used with the EOS Mini, and you can use
