L6 LumaMax LED
Introduction
The L6 LumaMaxTM is fitted with a five-watt,
white LED module. Powered by three 3-volt
lithium batteries, the L6 features digital current
regulation circuitry that matches the LED’s
current requirements to the batteries’ output to
achieve a consistent level of light output for the
useable life of the batteries. The L6 LumaMax
features a click-on/click-off tailcap pushbutton
switch.
Light Activation
Partially depress the tailcap pushbutton switch for
momentary activation. Note: If light fails to
function, the tailcap may be in the lock-out
position; tighten the tailcap by rotating clockwise.
For constant light, fully depress the tailcap
pushbutton switch to the “click-on” position.
CAUTION: SureFire®flashlights produce
substantial heat during operation: Do not leave
activated flashlight unattended. Do not set
activated flashlight face (lens) down. Do not
place activated flashlight against combustible
material or material that could be damaged by
heat. Do not hold bezel or lens of activated
flashlight against any portion of human body.
Keep away from children.
Ensure that the flashlight cannot be turned on
when stored or being transported. If the lamp is
activated while in a case or other container, the
lamp could overheat and cause damage to
surrounding materials.

Operation
Battery Replacement
Unscrew the tailcap and insert new batteries with
positive ends towards LED assembly. Replace
tailcap and hand tighten. Depress tailcap
pushbutton switch to test. Note: If batteries are
inserted with positive ends towards the tailcap,
the unit will not light. Damage will not occur.
Reinsert batteries with positive ends towards the
LED assembly.
WARNING: Lithium batteries can explode or
cause burns if disassembled, shorted, recharged.
exposed to water, fire, or high temperatures. Do
not place loose batteries in a pocket, purse or
other container containing metal objects, mix
with used or other battery types, or store with
hazardous or combustible materials. Store in
cool, dry, ventilated area. Follow applicable laws
and regulations for disposal.
Maintenance
Clean and lubricate threads with a clean cloth and
apply thin coat of silicon-based lubricant to
rubber O-rings. Note: Do not use petroleum-
based lubrication on SureFire O-rings. After
prolonged exposure to moisture, the bezel and
batteries should be removed, inspected, and dried
if necessary.

Output & Runtime
Accurately specifying light output (lumens) and
runtime is more complicated for LED flashlights
than it is for tungsten lamp flashlights.
The light output of the L6 exceeds that of
comparable SureFire tungsten lamp flashlights
(6P, C2, E2e, etc.), and runtime is longer than the
one hour specified for these tungsten lamp
flashlights.
The curve on the Beam Lumen Output
graph indicates a drop in output after 65
minutes, however usable light is available
for more than 15 hours.
All beam lumen output curves were
measured using an integrating sphere with a
photopic detector.
