when the cable is correctly installed.
•
Charging
- Red LED is illuminated.
•
Fully Charged
- Green LED is illuminated.
Charge time is approximately 4.5 hours.
IMPORTANT: Maximum charging temperature range is 20°F
to 115°F with optimal temperature range between 50°F
and 86°F. A safety circuit prevents charging outside the
maximum range and the red charge LED will pulse rapidly.
When temperature is within an acceptable range charging
will resume.
Battery Installation

supplied by Princeton Tec. It is also compatible with 2 AAA
Alkaline batteries.
When not using Alloy-X, separate the head and tail by
turning counterclockwise approximately one turn. This
will prevent accidental activation. Remove batteries when
storing Alloy-X.

Improper installation of the batteries will damage light and
void warranty.
