Battery and Power Supply Specifics
The Strobe Light is fitted with rechargeable NiMH
(Nickel Metal Hydride) batteries. These batteries
contain fewer toxic metals than NiCd (Nickel
Cadmium) and are currently classified
“environmentally friendly”. They also have 30% more
capacity than NiCd batteries of the same size.
Like NiCds, NiMH batteries are prone to self-
discharge - 10 to 15% of charge is lost in the first 24
hours then continues at a rate of 0.5 to 1% per day.
For maximum performance, charge the batteries just
prior to use.
When not in use, the batteries should be charged at
least every three months, otherwise the battery
capacity will be reduced or the batteries may become
unusable.
Charge the batteries before use and allow 3-5 cycles
of charging and discharging for batteries to reach full
charge capacity.
The enclosure contains control electronics to properly
and safely charge the batteries. Never remove the
batteries from the enclosure and attempt to charge
externally. Only use the charger supplied.
Low Battery Indication
When the batteries are charged, there will be no
battery indication. When the batteries are low, the
Low Battery icon will blink in the display. The strobe
may still be used for a short time.
