Brightness Levels
When the MT10C is switched on, press the step-up switch repeatedly to switch from the
following brightness levels: red beacon-red light-ultralow-low-medium-high-turbo. The MT10C
has memory effect. When it is switched on, the MT10C will enter the brightness level last
used.
When the MT10C is switched on, press the step-down switch repeatedly to lower its
brightness until red beacon mode, after which there is no cycling back to other brightness
levels.
Direct Access to Red Light Mode:
When the MT10C is switched on, press and hold the step-down switch for over one
second to access the red light mode; OR:
When the MT10C is switched off, press and hold the step-down switch and press the
button on the tailcap to access the red light mode.
Direct Access to Turbo:
When the MT10C is switched on, press and hold the step-up switch for over one second to
access turbo output (920 lumens); OR:
When the MT10C is switched off, press and hold the step-up switch and press the button
on the tailcap to access turbo output (920 lumens).
Note:
After three minutes' using of turbo mode, the flashlight will lower its output automatically
to prevent overheating, and efficiently ensure the battery runtime.
Special modes (Strobe/Location/SOS)
With the light switched on, press both side switches to enter strobe mode. When in
strobe mode, press both side switches again to cycle through Location Beacon, SOS,
and Strobe modes. To exit and resume the brightness level last used, simply press the
step-up or step-down switch. The MT10C has memory effect in strobe mode. If it is
turned off in strobe mode, it will enter strobe mode immediately when switched on again.
Power Tips
With the light switched off, press both side switches and the button on the tailcap to
activate the red power indicator to blink and indicate battery voltage (accurate to 0.1V). For
example, when battery voltage is at 4.2V, the red power indicator will blink 4 times, followed
by a one second pause and another 2 blinks. Different voltages represent the corresponding
remaining battery power levels.

Brightness & Runtime
NOTICE
The stated data has been
measured in accordance
with the international
flashlight testing
standards ANSI/NEMA
FL1, using one high
quality CR123 battery (3V,
1700mAh) under
laboratory conditions.
Operating Instructions
Battery Installation
Insert one CR123 or IMR18350 battery as illustrated.
WARNING
1. Ensure batteries are inserted with the positive (+) end
pointing towards the head. The MT10C will not be
operational with incorrectly inserted battery.
2. The
included battery magazine
securely holds the
(R)CR123 battery in place, thus stopping battery
movement in the compartment.
3. Please stop using and remove a depleted IMR18350
battery to avoid potential battery damage.
