Helmet
The laser can be attached to a helmet if the user wears one. Use suitable
attachment means in this case.
Headband
The laser can be attached to a headband. In this case, the laser will be positioned
at the side of the head. This works well if the user can hold the head reasonably
steady.
Charging
The laser pointer must be charged for at least two hours before it is used for the
first time. This will ensure maximal lifetime for the batteries.
It takes approximately 2.0 hours to charge the batteries. The charger switches to
maintenance charging at the end of this period. Charge the pointer regularly,
preferably during the night. The pointer can operate for up to 20 hours with a
fully charged, new battery.
