Luxor can become hot when operated at or near maximum output for extended periods of time.
Luxor’s head piece in particular can reach extremely high temperatures during such operation
and can become a burn hazard. Always use caution when Luxor is operated near maximum
output, and never leave Luxor unattended when running at or near maximum output.
Luxor uses high power LEDs that are capable of producing intense light. Never look
directly into the light or shine into another person’s eyes.
Luxor is not a toy. Do not allow children to operate or handle Luxor unsupervised.

Autofocus:In auto focus mode, Luxor detects where it is being pointed and automatically
adjusts the focus of the light to deliver the best lighting for that application.
Virtualfocus:Virtual focus mode allows you to manually control the beam pattern of your
Luxor. While in virtual focus mode, hold the button down and rotate clockwise to narrow the
beam pattern or rotate counterclockwise to widen the beam pattern.
You can also adjust the beam by holding down the button down and pressing the button
to narrow the beam pattern or pressing the button to widen the beam pattern. Once the
desired beam pattern has been selected, the intensity can be adjusted by pressing the or

Intelligent OLED display
Shows the percent charge remaining and the actual capacity
remaining in mAh.
Shows the amount of time (days:hours:minutes) remaining until
Luxor becomes empty.
Shows the amount of time (days:hours:minutes) remaining until
Luxor becomes fully charged.
Shows the amount of light emitted in lumens and graphically
shows what percentage of maximum light output is being
emitted from each set of LEDs (beam, ood, lantern).
Shows the beam projecting performance in meters.
Shows the battery’s voltage, the amount of current in Amps be-
ing charged into or being consumed by Luxor, and the amount
of power in Watts Luxor is currently using.
Shows the health of your battery and charge mode. Luxor keeps
track of your battery’s wear and tear and its charging condition.
Shows the angle of the light being emitted in DFS mode and
graphically shows what percentage of maximum light output is
being emitted from each set of LEDs’ (beam, ood, lantern).

Luxor menus
Six dierent menus may be selected by the user on Luxor’s organic LED display. These menus
include battery percentage, time remaining, electrical, health & charge mode, throw, and
lumens.
Battery percentage: The battery percentage menu will display the remaining battery capacity
as a percentage of Luxor’s maximum battery capacity numerically and graphically. The remain-
ing battery capacity will also be displayed in mAh.
Timeremaining:In the time remaining menu, Time to Discharge, Time to Charge, or Fully
Charged will be displayed. During normal operation, the Time to Discharge will be displayed,
showing the amount of time left before Luxor needs to be charged. If Luxor is being charged,
the Time to Charge will be displayed, showing the amount of time Luxor needs to be charged to
reach full capacity. If Luxor has reached full capacity, Fully Charged will be displayed.
Electrical:The electrical menu contains the voltage, current, and power readings of Luxor’s bat-
tery. NOTE: If your screen is on but the LEDs are o, you should expect to see a low current of
0.05A or less.
Health&chargemode:The health & charge mode menu displays the condition (new, good, ok,
poor, bad, or replace) of Luxor’s battery, as well as which charge mode is activated.
NOTE: Please note that LiPo batteries operate better at lower temperatures.
Throw:The throw menu contains the distance in meters that the beam light is emitting.
Lumens:The lumens menu shows the total amount of light emitted in lumens. Additionally, the
Lumens menu graphically shows what percentage of maximum light output is being emitted
from each set of LEDs (beam, ood, lantern).
Charging your Luxor
1. Insert the USB male A end of your
charging cable into a USB power source.
2. If the waterproof tail cap is on, unscrew
the tail cap seal and remove the tail cap.
3. Connect the micro USB end of your

connector is inserted with the correct
orientation.
5. Place the tail cap back into position,
making sure that it is correctly oriented
by aligning the micro USB opening with
the micro USB port.
6. While applying pressure on the tail cap,
screw the tail cap seal ring back on. Be
sure that the tail cap seal is completely
screwed onto the body of your Luxor.
NOTE: If your Luxor will not charge after
replacing the battery, conrm that the tail
cap is aligned properly and the tail cap
seal ring is completely screwed onto the body of your Luxor. If the tail cap is misaligned or
the tail cap seal ring is not screwed on completely, your micro USB cable might be unable
to be inserted completely, preventing your Luxor from registering a charge.

3. Insert the USB male A end of the charging cable into the USB
female A end of the reverse charge cable.
4. Connect the Micro USB end of the charging cable into your
other device.
Important Notes: Reverse charge will be deactivated if battery level is too low. When reverse charge
is on, maximum brightness levels of strobe, beam+ood, and beam+ood+lantern mode will be
reduced 75%, 75%, and 50% respectively to protect Luxor.
WARNING: DO NOT CHARGE LUXOR WHEN REVERSE CHARGE IS ACTIVATED.
