NITECORE (SYSMAX) is a member of PLATO, participating in and helping to develop

the ANSI FL1 standard of measurement. Product testing data is in accordance with

these internationally recognized scientific standards.

NOTICE

Stated data has been

measured according to

the international flashlight

testing standards

ANSI/NEMA FL1 using a

quality NITECORE 18650

(3.7V 2600mAh) battery

or two SYSMAX CR123

(3V 1550mAh) batteries

under laboratory

conditions. The data may

vary due to individual

usage habits and

environmental conditions.

Operation instructions

Battery installation (as the picture shows)

1. Unscrew the tail cap in a counter-clockwise direction.

2. Insert one 18650 battery or two CR123 batteries with the positive pole

pointing forward (toward the light head).

User Manual

Switching ON/OFF

Switch ON: Press the button on the tailcap until a “click” is heard. Switch OFF: Press the button at the tailcap until a second “click” is heard.

Mode Switching

The Nitecore MT26 has two modes: Turbo and user-defined. These two modes can be changed by simply tightening and loosening the flashlight head. Turbo provides 100% output while user-defined modes contain five selectable sub-modes.

Turbo Mode

Turbo mode is accessed when the MT26 flashlight is switched ON and the head lightly tightened. While in this mode, momentary illumination can be achieved by switching off the flashlight and then half pressing and holding the switch. Momentary illumination can be used as a flashing signal indicator or applied to various tactical applications.

Note: After three minutes’ using of turbo mode, the flashlight will lower its

output automatically for preventing overheating, and efficiently ensure the battery runtime.

User-Defined Mode

User-defined mode is accessed by slightly loosening the flashlight head. In this mode, lightly and rapidly pressing the switch will cycle through brightness and other functions in the following order: “High-Mid-Low- SOS-Strobe”. Pressing the switch all the way down will save and memorize a desired setting.

Tips: Make NITECORE MT26 your perfect multi-task flashlight.

NITECORE MT26 flashlights essentially have two modes: Turbo mode (100% output) and custom mode. Turbo mode is accessed by tightening the flashlight head while any of one of the four customizable modes (strobe, low, medium and high) are selected by loosening the head and rapidly pressing the on/off switch to cycle through the modes. A given mode can be saved by simply turning off the light while in that mode. Real-world examples include: When used as a flashlight around the home, the head can be loosened and low level selected in custom mode, providing long runtimes at a lower light intensity. The same flashlight could then be taken out and used as a law-enforcement duty light, with user-defined mode set in strobe, making it easy to alternate between turbo mode and strobe with a simple twist of the flashlight head.

Maintenance

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