Battery Options

Operation instructions

Battery installation

Install one 18650 Li-ion battery or two
CR123 Li-ion batteries with the positive pole
pointing forward (toward the bezel).
NOTE: Integrated LEDs within the tail switch

will blink to indicate remaining battery power
after battery installation. Please refer to
Power Tips for more information.
WARNING

1. Install the batteries as instructed.
Incorrect battery installation can cause
unsuccessful activation.
2. NBM1618 battery magazine holds 2 ×
CR123 Li-ion batteries, inhibits battery
movement inside the tube and helps
maintain electrical continuity.
3 This product CANNOT be powered by
flat-top batteries.
4. AVOID direct eye exposure.

Switching ON/OFF

To switch ON: Press the tail button until a “click” is heard.
To switch OFF: with the light on, press the tail button again until a “click” is heard.

Mode Selection

The P10 offers three different modes of illumination for different users and situations.

Tactical Mode: this mode only provides turbo output, and is ideal for self-defense,

emergencies and tactical operations.

Law Enforcement Mode: this mode provides two brightness levels: medium and

turbo. Turbo is the default state. This mode is designed for law enforcement officers
and patrol guards.

General Mode (default mode for first time use): this mode provides three brightness
levels: low, medium and turbo. With the light on, press the STROBE READY

button on the

tail to cycle through all three brightness levels. General mode provides an intelligent
memory function to ensure direct access to the current setting when reactivated.

NOTE: When in medium and turbo mode, the P10 will reduce output luminance

automatically after 3 minutes of use to prevent battery overheating and extend battery
longevity.

To select a desired mode:

1. Ensure the P10 is switched off.
2. Loosen the bezel.
3. Press and hold the STROBE READY

button on the tailcap while simultaneously

tightening the bezel.
4. Once the bezel has been tightened, the P10 will indicate a mode has been selected
by flashing once for Tactical Mode, twice for Law Enforcement Mode or three times for
General Mode.
5. To cycle through all three modes, simply repeat the above procedures.

Strobe Ready

1. With batteries loaded and the light off, press and hold STROBE READY

button on the

tailcap to enter Strobe mode, release to exit.
2. With the light on in Tactical Mode, press STROBE READY

button on the tailcap to enter

Strobe mode. To exit, simply press STROBE READY

button again or switch the light off.

3. With the light on in Law Enforcement Mode or General Mode, press and hold
STROBE READY

button on the tailcap for more than 0.5 second to enter strobe mode. To

exit, simply press STROBE READY

button again.

4. General mode provides an intelligent memory function to ensure direct access to
the current Strobe mode when reactivated.

Power Tips

Two integrated red LEDs built into the tail switch blink to indicate remaining battery
power when the tail cap is tightened after battery installation. The power indicators
will blink three times when power levels are above 50%; twice when power levels are
below 50%; and once when battery power is close to depletion.

NOTE: When batteries are already installed and a precise power reading is required,

ensure the P10 is powered down for 20 seconds before retightening the tail cap to
detect battery power status.

Changing Batteries

Batteries should be replaced when any of the following occurs: The power indicators
blink rapidly, output appears to be dim or the flashlight becomes unresponsive.

Maintenance

Every 6 months, threads should be wiped with a clean cloth followed by a thin coating
of silicon-based lubricant.
