User manual ORION TELESCOPES & BINOCULARS DUALBEAM FLASHLIGHT

[. . . ] DualBeamTM LED #5756 Adjustable Brightness Astro Flashlight The DualBeam LED is a handy tool for the amateur astronomer. It has four LEDs (light emitting diodes), two white and two red, and a thumbwheel to adjust brightness. [. . . ] To change from astronomy mode (red LED) to the convention- al flashlight mode (white LED), push the switch next to the thumbwheel forward. Flip it back again to return to astronomy mode. Place the nylon cord around your neck for a convenient way to carry the flashlight. The cord will also prevent the flashlight from dropping to the ground in the dark. Batteries The DualBeam uses a single 9-volt battery. Lithium batteries typically last longer than alkaline batteries, but any battery you choose will give relatively long life due to the small current draw of the LEDs. Changing the batteries When the LEDs refuse to emit at the desired brightness, it is time to change the battery. To replace the battery, first remove the front cap from the flashlight. Do this by depressing the tab located just in front of the thumbwheel while pulling the front cap off. Now, rotate the thumbwheel as far forward as it will go (the LEDs will be at maximum brightness). [. . . ] You will not need to change the battery again for quite some time.
