4.3.1.2 Charging the battery, operating and storage
• As soon as the headlamp is connected to DC power and either the headlamp is switched off or the LED is not in
ope
ration, the internal battery starts charging.
• The battery charge status is shown on the display both when the headlamp is on and when it is in standby mode.
• The charging time from 0% charge status to 100% charge status is approximately 5 hours at E.FLEX and 3 hours
at A.FLEX.
• The battery runtime is approx. 7.5 hours (E.FLEX and approx. 5 hours (A.FLEX) for a two-color mix (both
colors at 100%). The battery runtime can be extended up to 24 hours by using the runtime function with
correspondingly reduced brightness.
• The headlamp automatically calculates the brightness based on the color setting and runtime used.
• After approximately 300 charging cycles (0% - 100%), the battery capacity is still approximately 70% of the
nominal capacity.
• The electronic Battery Management System protects against overcharging and deep discharge.
• The battery may only be replaced with original accessories by an authorized service center.
• Do not charge the battery of the E.FLEX / A.FLEX headlamp at ambient temperatures below 0°C and
above 40°C.
• When operating the E.FLEX / A.FLEX floodlight with mains voltage, the ambient temperature must not fall
below 0°C and must not exceed +40°C.
• When operating with internal rechargeable battery, the ambient temperature must not fall below -20°C and must
not exceed +40°C.
• Immediately recharge the battery completely after discharging. Batteries that are not fully charged lose capacity
and service life.
• For short to medium-term storage of the headlamp, fully charge the battery.
• If the headlamp will not be used for a longer period of time, use the "Storage" function inside the device settings
to charge the battery. This limits the maximum charging capacity to 40% and thus preserves the life of the battery.
• If the headlamps are charged inside a flight-case, be aware the case lid must remain open during the entire
charging process in order to avoid heat accumulation.
• When operating in a cold environment, battery life may be shorter than expected.
• Store the headlamp in a cool, dry place to allow optimal storage conditions for the battery.
