11. BATTERY STATUS ICONS
The battery status icon for the built-in battery pack appears at the
right side of the status bar at the top of the screen.
If an optional auxiliary battery is installed in the BOLT TD50L, a
battery status icon for the auxiliary battery appears to the left of the
status icon for the built-in battery pack.
The battery status icon for the active battery (the battery currently
being used to power the BOLT TD50L) is displayed in color, while the
inactive battery is displayed in gray.
Battery charge levels are indicated by the color and fill-level of the
icon for the active battery and the fill-level of the gray icon for the
inactive battery.
While charging, the charging icon in the status bar will appear
inside the status icon for the built-in battery icon. Charge the built-in
battery pack when it reaches the red battery status color to avoid
over-discharge and potential damage to the battery.

12. SWITCHING THE BATTERY
POWER SUPPLY
The BOLT TD50L Series has a dual power supply system with a built-
in li-ion battery pack and an auxiliary battery option. 18500, or 18650
with adapter, rechargeable li-ion batteries (optional/not included) are
compatible with the BOLT TD50L.
Using with the Optional Auxiliary Battery
• When both the built-in battery pack and the auxiliary battery are
fully charged, the BOLT TD50L will select the auxiliary battery as
its primary power source.
• If the power of the auxiliary battery is low, or the auxiliary battery
is removed, the BOLT TD50L will automatically switch to the
built-in battery pack as its primary power supply. Operation will
not be interrupted during this time.
• When the BOLT TD50L is in use, you may insert (or replace) an
auxiliary battery without powering o. Power will automatically
switch to the built-in battery during replacement of the auxiliary
battery.
Using with an External Power Source
When the data cable is used to connect the BOLT TD50L, via the
USB-C port, to a computer or external power source (such as a
standard wall outlet or an external power supply), the rifle scope will
switch to the external power source and begin charging the built-in
battery pack. See External Power Supply on the next page for more
information.
While charging, the built-in battery status icon shown in the status
bar will change to the charging icon. See Battery Status Icons on
page12.
NOTE: Only the built-in battery pack will be charged while
connected via the USB-C port.
13. BATTERY SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Only charge the BOLT TD50L with a standard 5V–2A USB adapter,
as included in the BOLT TD50L kit. Using any other type of adapters
may lead to irreversible damage to the battery, adapter, or rifle
scope. This damage is not covered under warranty.
If your BOLT TD50L has been stored for an extended period, it
should be charged before using.

14 15
WARNINGS:
• Avoid storing a fully charged or discharged battery for extended
periods.
• Do not charge an extremely cold battery without bringing it into
a warm environment. Let the battery warm up for 45minutes
before charging.
• Do not use any USB cable or power adapter that has been
modified or damaged to charge the BOLT TD50L.
• Charge the BOLT TD50L at a temperature range from
30°Fto100°F, otherwise the battery life will be reduced
significantly.
• Do not leave the BOLT TD50L unattended while charging.
• Avoid leaving the BOLT TD50L connected to the USB power
adapter for extended periods after it has been fully charged.
• The BOLT TD50L has a short-circuit protection system. However,
any situation that may cause short-circuiting should be avoided.
• The recommended operation temperature range is -4°Fto122°F,
Avoid operating out of this temperature range, otherwise you
may experience a shortened battery life.
• Avoid using the battery pack above the maximum or below
the minimum recommended temperature listed above as this
may decrease the battery pack capacity or service life. This is
considered normal operation and should not be considered a
defect.
• Keep the battery pack out of the reach of children and pets.
• Only use compatible 18650, or 18500 and adapter, rechargeable
batteries (not included/optional) in the auxiliary battery
compartment.
14. EXTERNAL POWER SUPPLY
The BOLT TD50L Series supports the use of an external power
supply, such as a 5V mobile power bank. The external power supply
may be used with or without the optional auxiliary battery installed.
To connect the BOLT TD50L to an external power supply:
1. Remove the USB-C port cover (8) by turning it counterclockwise.
2. Connect the smaller USB-C end of the data cable to the USB-C
port (9).
3. Connect the standard USB end of the data cable to the external
power supply. The BOLT TD50L will automatically switch to using
the external power supply for power and it will begin charging
the internal battery pack.
a. While charging, the charging icon will appear inside the
built-in battery icon in the status bar.
b. The color and fill-level of the built-in battery icon will change
to reflect the current battery charge. See Battery Status
Icons on page12.
4. When the external power supply is turned o, the BOLT TD50L
will switch to the auxiliary battery without turning o.
5. If no auxiliary battery is installed or the auxiliary battery level
is low, the BOLT TD50L will switch to the built-in battery pack,
instead of shutting down.
NOTE: Do not connect the BOLT TD50L to an external device with
a power supply that exceeds the 3.0 USB cable.
15. MOUNTING THE BOLT TD50L
To ensure accurate results, please first properly mount the BOLT
TD50L Series on your rifle.
The BOLT TD50L Series rifle scope is mounted using traditional
30mm ring mounts, such as the ring mounts included in the package.
Follow the ring manufacturer’s installation instructions and torque
the ring caps to 20 in/lbs. A torque driver is required to control the
torque.
MOUNTING NOTES:
• When mounting the BOLT TD50L on a rifle, adjust its position so
that proper eye relief (70 mm) is achieved. Failure to comply with
this recommendation may result in injury to the shooter by the
eyepiece when shooting.
• It is recommended to install the BOLT TD50L as low as possible
for a proper cheek weld; however make sure to avoid contact
with the barrel or receiver.
• After mounting, but before hunting with the BOLT TD50L, zero
the rifle scope. See Zeroing the BOLT TD50L on page23 for
instructions.

16 17
16. MOUNTING THE INFRARED
ILLUMINATOR
The TD50L includes an optional Infrared Illuminator that can be used
to supplement available light when conditions require. To use the
Illuminator, you must first install it onto the included QD mount:
1. Install the body of the Illuminator into the smaller-diameter end
of the mount and use the included Allen wrench to tighten the
two screws until snug.
2. Open the larger-diameter end of the Illuminator mount by
loosening the tension arm on the top of the mount.
3. Place the open end of the mount around the body of the TD50L,
ensuring that the placement will not impair the operation of the
scope or weapon, and tighten the tension arm to secure it.
4. Twist the tension arm to adjust tension, as needed.
To turn the Illuminator on and adjust the beam angle:
1. Turn the tail switch to cycle between the three available power
levels (low, medium, and high output).
2. Once a suitable power lever is selected, adjust the beam path by
turning the bezel of the Illuminator (flood to beam).
3. Using the included Allen wrench, slightly loosen the two screws
on the small side of the mount holding the Illuminator in place.
4. Adjust the Illuminator by pointing it so that the beam lands in
the desired position in your sight picture, and retighten the two
screws.
CAUTION: Never look directly into the beam of the Illuminator to
check operation. The Illuminator uses concentrated infrared light,
which while not visible to the human eye, can cause permanent
physical damage.
17. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Control Features
The BOLT TD50L is operated via four control buttons and a large
metal tactile control turret. The large, easy-find control turret provides
audible and tactile feedback when twisted and when pressed.

the battery icon on the right side of the status bar at the top of the
viewscreen. See Battery Status Indicators on page12.
WARNING: Don’t point the objective lens towards any intense
energy sources, such as laser radiation or the sun. This may render
the electronic components inoperative. The warranty does not
cover damage caused by improper operation.
