USER MANUAL BLIZZARD 1000 LUMEN SEARCH & RESCUE LED FLASHLIGHT FS-E51
Thank you for choosing Vulta. The Vulta Blizzard FS-E51 projects an ultrabright white light with a crisp, wide beam. Designed for search and rescue applications, this high-output flashlight features three constant-on modes with a maximum output of 1,000 lumens capable of penetrating deep into the woods. The 56 lm minimum is ideal for close work when your eyes are adjusted to the dark, and the strobe mode can be used for emergency signaling and communication.
The LED is housed in an ultraclear, tempered glass lens that optimizes resistance to impacts and scratches and maximizes throw distance.

A Note about Maximum Output When the flashlight is in High mode, the battery discharge, drive circuit, and LED will all be producing heat, and the lamp head may become extremely hot. Please be cautious when touching it. To protect the battery, circuit, and LED, and to extend the lifetime of the flashlight, we do not recommend continuously running the flashlight on High mode for more than 10 minutes. INSTALLING BATTERIES The Blizzard FS-E51 is powered by three CR123 or RCR123 (3 or 3.7 V) batteries.
To install a battery, follow these steps: 1. Unscrew the lamp head from the grip and remove the battery carrier. 2. Insert three fresh CR123 or RCR123 batteries into the battery carrier. Make sure the batteries are facing the proper direction as indicated by the markings in the carrier. 3. Insert the battery carrier into the grip. 4. Screw the lamp head onto the grip until secure.
SETTING THE MODE High/Medium/Low: There are three constanton modes: High, Medium, and Low. Rotate the variable-control ring so it clicks into place as it rests under the markings for each of the three constant-on settings to set the output power. Strobe Mode: Strobe mode continuously emits quick flashes of bright light. To enter Strobe mode, rotate the variable-control ring clockwise all the way, so it rests under the ].
O-RING MAINTENANCE The Blizzard FS-E51’s O-ring is installed on the threaded portion to help seal out water. The O-ring is prelubricated to extend its lifetime, ensure smooth operation, and increase water resistance. If the O-ring dries out or there is little or no lubricant remaining, we recommend applying a small amount of O-ring lubricant. The FS-E51 comes with a replacement O-ring. If the original wears out after long-term use, replace it with the included spare.
