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 P20 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 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 P20 will reduce output luminance automatically after 3 minutes of use to prevent battery overheating and extend battery longevity.

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 P20 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.
