Operating the Blind Sider-X2™
The Blind Sider-X2™ is very simple to operate. Open the light
housing by lifting the two (2) cam locking hasps up and forward
towards the front of the unit. Fold open the light housing and
install four (4) D cell batteries into the battery compartments
located on the right hand side. Two batteries go in each tube
and will t snugly. All batteries should be installed with the
negative (-) terminal of the battery pointing toward the top of
the Blind Sider-X2™. Once batteries are installed, you are now
ready to power the unit on. WARNING: LED is extremely bright,
avoid looking directly into LED at all times.
Anti-Spook Technology™
When the Blind Sider-X2™ is activated, the LEDs will turn on
in a very low power and gradually increase to full power over
one minute time-frame. This gradual increase in brightness is
especially effective in preventing the animal from spooking when
the light is activated.
Brightness Control
The Blind Sider-X2™ was built to operate on a single LED
for low power consumption, or two (2) LEDs for maximum
brightness. You may use the Brightness Control Switch to select
between using one or two LEDs.
Using Blind Sider-X2™ Motion Detection
Your Blind Sider-X2™ comes with a built in motion detector.
To utilize the motion function, nd the mode selector switch
located on the panel opposite the batteries (left side). The Blind
Sider-X2™ has a 3 position switch, OFF-ON-AUTO. To operate
the device utilizing the motion sensor, simply slide the switch to
the AUTO position. This will activate the motion sensor and the
light will turn on when motion is detected, effectively illuminating
your hunting area. If you would rather have your Blind
Sider-X2™ remain ON for the duration of your hunt, switch the
light to the ON position. This deactivates the motion sensor and
provides constant power to the light until batteries are depleted.
Time Duration
When using The Blind Sider-X2™ in Motion Detection mode,
the light will turn on when motion is detected. It will continue to
operate as long as an animal(s) is actively moving in your area
within range of the motion detector. Once game activity ceases,
the light will remain on for a period of time, then power off. The
Time Duration switch will allow you to adjust the amount of time
(20 seconds, 90 seconds, 3 minutes, 5 minutes, 10 minutes, or
15 minutes) the light stays on after game activity ceases before
it powers off.
Multiple Power Options / Solar Charging
The Blind Sider-X2™ has three different options to power the
light; using four (4) D size batteries, using an external 6 volt
battery, and using an 18650 battery with a solar charger for
maintenance free operation.
• To use D size batteries, move the Power Input Switch to the
middle position labeled “4D”. Place four (4) D size batteries
in the battery compartment with all of the positive sides
pointing down.
• To power with an external battery, move the Power Input
Switch to the top position labeled “DC 6V”. Remove the
rubber Plug in the bottom of the light, and then plug the
optional power cord to the bottom of the light. Attach the
other end of the power cord to a 6 volt battery.
• To use the optional solar charger and 18650 battery, move
the Power Input Switch to the bottom position labeled “Solar
Charge”. Place the 18650 rechargeable battery in the “For
Solar Charging Only” battery tray with the positive end
facing up. Then remove the rubber plug on the bottom of
the light, and plug the solar charger into the light. For more
information about the optional Solar Charger, please contact
Mounting your Blind Sider-X2™
The Blind Sider-X2™ was built to mount like a trail camera.
Included is a standard nylon web strap with cam buckle as
well as two (2) 1/4” threaded brass inserts for use with
various mounts.
• To mount with included strap, simply thread the end opposite
the cam buckle through the two vertical slotted brackets on
the back of the light housing. Position the light on a tree,
post or other stationary object with the front of the unit facing
your feeder, bait pile, game trail, or other area you expect
animals to approach. Your Blind Sider-X2™ will illuminate
a rather large area so it is not necessary to precisely aim
it as you would a trail camera. Once you have your light
positioned correctly, wrap the bare end of the strap around
the stationary object you are securing the light to. Thread the
end of the strap through the cam buckle, tighten and secure
the cam buckle by closing the latch. To remove the light,
simply open the latch, pull the strap free from the buckle and
remove your Blind Side–R™.
• You can also mount your Blind Sider-X2™ to virtually any
1/4” threaded trail camera mount. The Blind Sider-X2™
has brass mounting inserts on both the back and bottom
of the housing. Carefully thread the unit clockwise onto
your preferred camera mount and position the light facing
the direction or location you expect game to approach.
To remove, simply unscrew the mount by turning counter-
clockwise until the Blind Sider-X2™ is no longer connected
to the camera mounting device.
Helpful Tip
Although much more forgiving than a trail camera, when
mounting your Blind Sider-X2™ look for a tree or post that is
somewhat straight. This will make aiming your light to the proper
location much easier. The Blind Sider-X2™ comes with molded
stabilizing spikes and naturally mounts at a downward angle.
Keep this in mind when selecting your mounting location.
