Battery Specifications 

Warning: *21700 Li-ion batteries are powerful cells designed for commercial applications and must be treated with caution and handled with care. Only use quality batteries with circuit protection will reduce the potential for combustion or explosion; but cell damage or short circuiting are potential risks the user assumes.

Charging 

1. Uncover the anti-dust cap and plug the USB Type-C side of the charging cable into the charging port of the lamp.
2. The normal charging time of the included Fenix ARB-L21-5000 V2.0 is about 4 hours (5V/2A) with the lamp being switched off.
3. The indicator will display red while charging and turn green when fully charged.

* This only works with Fenix ARB-L21-5000 V2.0 battery.

Note:

1. Recharge a stored headlamp every four months to maintain optimal battery performance.
2. When charging, the Low output level of Spotlight mode can be used. The headlamp will not automatically power on after full charging.
3. When charging is complete, replace the anti-dust cap to ensure the waterproof and dustproof ability.

Battery Level Indication

Green light on: saturated 100% – 80%

Green light flashes: sufficient 80% – 50%

Red light on: poor 50% – 20%

Red light flashes: critical 20% – 1%

Note: This only works with Fenix ARB-L21-5000 V2.0 battery.

Intelligent Overheat Protection            

The lamp will accumulate a lot of heat when used at relatively high output levels for extended periods. When the lamp reaches a temperature of 65°C or above, the lamp will automatically step down a few lumens to reduce the temperature. When the temperature drops below 65°C, it will then allow the user to reselection the modes.

Low-voltage Warning

When the voltage level drops below the preset level, the headlamp is programmed to downshift to a lower brightness level until Low output is reached. When this happens in Low output, the battery level indicator blinks to remind you to timely recharge or replace the battery.

Note: This only works with Fenix ARB-L21-5000 V2.0 battery.

Headband Assembly 

1. The headband is factory assembled by default.

2. Adjust the headband by sliding the buckle to the required length.

Usage and Maintenance 

• Disassembling the sealed head can cause damage to the lamp and will void the warranty.
• Fenix recommends using an excellent quality Fenix battery.
• If the lamp will not be used for an extended period, remove the battery, or the lamp could be damaged by electrolyte leakage.
• Loosen the cap or take out the battery to prevent accidental activation during storage or transportation.
• Periodic cleaning of the battery contacts improves the lamp’s performance as dirty contacts may cause the lamp to flicker, shine intermittently or even fail to illuminate for the following reasons:
  A: The battery needs replacing.
  Solution: Replace the battery (Ensure the battery is inserted according to the manufacturer’s specifications).
  B: The contact point or contact of the battery or headlamp is dirty.
  Solution: Clean the contact points with a cotton swab soaked in rubbing alcohol.
