Charging Tips
To Prevent Damage to Spotlight and Battery:
• Do not attempt to use spotlight while charging directly from AC
outlet. Doing so may cause damage to battery and AC charger.
• 12-volt DC charger/adapter operates from a cigarette lighter
receptacle for charging battery in spotlight only while vehicle engine
is running or continuous corded operation with or without battery.
• Do not attempt to charge battery pack using both AC an DC chargers
at the same time.
• Only use charging devices that are provided with the Q-Beam Blue Max
Rechargeable Spotlight or its replacements.
• For DC Charger/Adapter - Battery charges only while vehicle engine is
running.
For AC Charger - Allow battery to fully charge. L.E.D. indicator on
battery will automatically turn off when battery is fully charged.
See chart for recommended charge times.
• Do not allow battery to completely discharge. A dim light indicates a
low battery. Recharge battery as soon as possible after each use.
• Always keep the battery fully charged when not in use.
