Operation instructions

Battery Installation

Li-ion batteries with the positive pole pointing

forward (toward the bezel).

will blink to indicate remaining battery power

after battery installation. Please refer to Power

Tips for more information.

WARNING

1. Install batteries as instructed. Incorrect batteries

installation will stop the torch from functioning.

2. The NBM1618 battery magazine holds 2 x CR123

batteries, inhibits batteries movement inside the

compartment and helps maintain electrical

continuity.

Switching ON/OFF

To switch ON: press the tail switch until a “click” is heard;

To switch OFF: with the light turned on, press the tail switch again until a “click” is heard.

Mode Selection

The P20UV offers three different modes of illumination for different users and situations:

Tactical Mode: this mode only provides turbo and ultraviolet outputs, and is ideal for

self-defense, emergencies and tactical operations.

Law Enforcement Mode: this mode provides medium, turbo and ultraviolet outputs. This mode

is designed for law enforcement officers and patrol guards.

General Mode (default mode for first time use): this mode provides low, medium, turbo and

ultraviolet outputs. With the light turned on, press the STROBE READY

TM

switch on the tail to cycle

through all four outputs.

NOTE: 1. When using ultraviolet output, the P20UV is capable of sustaining a constant output

for 13 hours with 1 x 3.7V 2600mAh 18650 Li-ion battery;

2. When in medium and turbo mode, the P20UV will reduce output luminance automatically

after 3 minutes of use to prevent batteries from overheating and extends battery longevity.

WARNING: Avoid eye or skin exposure to the ultraviolet light.

How to select a desired mode:

1. Ensure the P20UV is switched off.

2. Loosen the head of the torch.

3. Press and hold the STROBE READY

TM

switch on the tailcap while simultaneously tightening the

head.

4. Once the head has been tightened, the P20UV will indicate the mode that has been selected

by flashing once for Tactical Mode, twice for Law Enforcement Mode and three times for

General Mode.

5. To cycle through all three modes, simply repeat the above procedures.

Strobe Ready

1. With batteries loaded and the light turned off, press and hold STROBE READY

TM

switch on the

tailcap to enter Strobe mode.To exit, simple release the switch.

2. With the light turned on in any state, press and hold STROBE READY

TM

switch on the tailcap for

more than 0.5 second to enter strobe mode. To exit, simply press STROBE READY

TM

switch

again.

Note: This product has memory effect to ensure direct access to the last used brightness levels

or strobe when resumed.

Power Tips

Two integrated LEDs built into the tail switch blink to indicate remaining battery power when the

tail cap is tightened after battery installation. The power indicators will blink three times when

power levels are above 50%; twice when power levels are below 50%; and once when battery

power is close to depletion.

NOTE: When batteries are already installed and a precise power reading is required, ensure

the P20UV is powered down for 20 seconds before retightening the tail cap to detect battery

power status.

Replacing Batteries

Batteries should be replaced when any of the following occurs: The power indicators blink

rapidly, output appears to be dim or the flashlight becomes unresponsive.

Maintenance

Every 6 months, threads should be wiped with a clean cloth followed by a thin coating of

silicon-based lubricant.
