Getting to Know your 

TactX-LM500 LED Flashlight

It is important to familiarize yourself with the LM500 LED 
Flashlight before operation for safe, optimal performance. 

Installing/Replacing the Battery

The LM500 accepts any 18650 Lithium-Ion 3.7V Rechargeable 
Battery. 

The use of incompatible batteries or chargers will 

void the warranty at the discretion of TactX.

 Be sure the 

flashlight is turned off before installing or replacing the battery.

1. Unscrew the 

Tail End Cap(F)

.

2. Always inspect the battery for signs of swelling, stress, discol-

oring, or leaking, as these symptoms indicate that the battery 

will need to be properly handled and disposed. 

(Reference 

the “18650 Lithium-Ion Battery Maintenance Guide.”)

3. Insert the Battery Po) end first into the flashlight. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

4. Carefully screw the

 Tail End Cap(F)

 ensuring a tight fit. Align 

properly to prevent stripping the screw threads. The tail end 

cap must be securely hand fastened to function properly.

If you decide to use the Direct Plug-in Charger(D) capability, 
you will never need to remove the battery from the flashlight

and be sure the flashlight is turned off before charging.

3. Plug the 

Direct Plug-in Charger(D)

 into an AC 100-240v

Charger. Then, plug the small connector end of the Direct 

Plug-in Charger into the Flashlight’s 

Charging Socket(C). 

4. Push once on the 

Tail Push Button(E)

 to activate the 

charging LED indicator on the
