burn time of up to 50,000 hours, reducing the need for frequent bulb re-
placement.
- The 6500K white light reflects the true vibrant colors of the underwater
surrounding while diving.
- The 4-level power output lets you choose between 100%, 50%, 25% and
10% of total brightness for cool white.
- The push button not only makes it easy to change between the power
output levels,but it is also designed to be insulated from all internai parts,
eliminating the risk of leakage.
- The product cornes with a smart charger, enabling you to smart qui-
ck-charge in 2-3 hours.

PRECAUTIONS AND ADVICE
CONCERNING THE LI-ION RECHARGEABLE BATTERY
- Intended to be used with the custom-made BATCELL18650 Li-ion
rechargeable battery pack only.
- Make sure to connect with the correct polarity. Incorrect connec-
tion can damage the unit.
- Fully charge the batteries before using for the rst lime.
- Use only the power adapters supplied with the charger. Using in-
compatible adapters may damage the charger or result in tire or
electric shock.
- Charge lime will depend on the remaining charge in the battery
and the surrounding temperature.
- Do not charge near hot temperature, under direct sunlight, co-
ver the charger with a blanket, or place under heavy pressure. If
the temperature is too high, il may cause the battery to leak or
rupture.
- When storing or carrying the battery, avoid direct contact with
metal abjects to avoid short circuit.
- The Li ion battery should not be dropped or be subjected to strong
mechanical shock.
- Do not operate the battery or the charger if il has been damaged
or subjected to shock.
- Remove the battery from the light if il is not going to be in use for
an extended period of lime.
- Do not dispose of in re. Do not heat, deform, solder, disassemble
or modify.
- Do not dispose of your rechargeable battery with general
household waste. Check with your local collection system for
electrical and electronic products.
- Do not short-circuit, overcharge, crush, drop, mutilate, penetrate
with foreign abjects, apply reverse polarity, expose to high tempera-
ture or disassemble packs and cells.
- Use only lithium-ion cells with a designated protection circuit and
approved charger.
- Discontinue using the battery and/or charger if the battery gels
excessively warm.
- The electrolyte is highly ammable and battery rupture can
cause physical injury.
- Use a foam extinguisher, C02, dry chemical, powdered graphite,
copper powder or soda (sodium carbonate) to extinguish a
lithium-ion lire. Only pour water to prevent the tire from sprea-
ding.
- If the lire of a burning lithium-ion battery cannot be extinguished,
allow the pack to burn out on its own in a controlled and safe
manner.
Charge the battery after each use. It is not necessary to discharge the
battery before charging. It is preferable to recharge the battery every
month, even if it is not in use.

1. Never put your battery on a charger and leave il unattended. Check
the « lime required to fully re-charge » and plan to have someone
be in attendance.
2. D iscontinue using charger and/or battery if the battery gels ex-
cessively warm.
3. If the battery does not charge in the approximate lime suggested
by the manufacturer contact the manufacturer to determine if
the problem is with the battery or the charger. Do not continue
charging the cell.
CHARGING LI ION BATTERY
1. Fully charge the battery before using it rst lime.
2. Use only the power adapter supplied with the charger.
3. Plug in the charger before you place the battery in the charger.
4. Connect with the correct polarity (+ and -) only, incorrect connec-
tion can damage the unit.
5. The red light on the charger will light up after a short lime, indica-
ting charging is taking place. If the red light does not light up, dis-
connect the battery and re-connect it again. If the red light does
not light up after several attempts, the battery does not function.
6. Green light on the charger indicates fully charged battery. The
battery should then be disconnected.
7. Charge the battery after each use. lt does not have to be
discharged before charging. Should charge the battery every
month even you don’t use it.
8. Do not turn on the light, if the light has tumed o due to low bat-
tery capacity. Tuming on the light with a fully discharged battery
can damage the battery.
9. Charge lime will depend on the remaining charge in the battery
and the surrounding temperature.
10. Remove the battery from the light if il is not going to be used for
extended period of lime.
USING THE RECHARGEABLE LI-ION BATTERY
After each dive, always rinse with fresh water. If the diving light and the
battery will not be used for a prolonged period of time (more than a
month), remove the battery from the light.
To avoid unwanted switching on, we recommend disconnecting the
lamp’s battery.
In rare cases of ooding, discontinue use. Turn the light o immedia-
tely, disconnect the battery, and rinse with fresh water. Let the compo-
nent dry completely, and return it to BigBlue for service.
Flooding damage cannot be repaired on site.
For good practice, put the light into fresh water for few hours after eve-
ry dive.
Dry it out and put the silicone crease on the O-Ring. Ready for other
dive.
LI-ION BATTERY CHARGE AND CARE
Unscrew the body and then slide out the
old battery pack.
REPLACING THE BATTERY PACK INSIDE
THE BODY
Press the push button every time to choose
the desired output level :
1 - output at 10%, 2 - output at 25%,
3 - output at 50%, 4 - output at 100%.
For 4-Levels setting, press the push button
each time to change the level of output
accorclingly.
Return to infrared mode with a slightly
longer press and release.
For SOS setting, press the push button for 2 sec to get SOS eect and
back to nonmal when you press the push button once agam.
For OFF setting, press the push button one time after 1 sec of level selec-
tion or press the push button ve times after 4-Levels setting.
CHOOSING BETWEEN 4-LEVELS
AND SOS OF OUTPUT
Color of LEDs change from the time being.
lt will change from blue to green and green
to red. When the red led ashes, it reminds
people to charge up the battery.
Place the Li-ion battery inside the USB
Charger.
Plug the intelligent rapid charger connec-
tor into the BATCELL18650 Li-ion rechar-
geable battery pack socket.
Red light means charging is in progress,
green light means charging is complete.
There is no need to discharge after use.
Charge time will depend on the remaining
capacity in the battery and the surroun-
ding temperature.
