The LithiumLed torch is furnished with:

- Intelligent Battery Charger - Goodman Handle with adjustable stretch



3. PREPARING THE TORCH Before connecting the lighting head to the battery pack make sure that both ORings are clean and not damaged.

Double ORing connector

Before connecting the lighting head to the battery pack make sure that the switch is on the OFF “0” position. Once inserted the plug screw in the security bolt.

Lighting head to battery pack connection



The connection is made up with a high quality connector tested up to 50 bar. The switch is positioned on the top of the battery pack. To light on the torch just rotate the switch until you reach the ON “I” position.

Switch positioned on OFF “0”

Soft handle positioning

ATTENTION!!! Do not point the torch directly in the eyes. Don’t look directly to the light emitted from the torch, the emitted light could cause serious permanent damages to your sight. Do not dive with the battery pack not connected to the light head. Make sure that the bolt is well fixed. Do not connect the plug if wet or dirty.



3.1 ALUMINUM GOODMAN HANDLE (OPTIONAL) The Goodman handle can be mounted in two different positions in order to regulate the CG of the lighting head.

Goodman handle position 1

Goodman handle position 2

The user may mount the handle as he prefers, in order to have the maximum comfort. To fix the handle use the screws furnished with the torch.



The Goodman handle has to be fixed on the lower plane side of the lighting head where you find the three fixing holes.

Once you have fixed the handle you may regulate its inclination by screwing the outer screws.

4. CERTIFICATION The torch received the European standard certification CE. 5. ADVERTISMENTS ATTENTION!!! Do not point the torch directly in the eyes. Don’t look directly to the light emitted from the torch, the emitted light could cause serious permanent damages to your sight. The torch should be stored clean and dry. Don’t expose the torch to chemical substances. To clean the torch use exclusively fresh water, paying attention to remove all salt deposits. The torch was designed for a underwater usage. However if you light on the torch outside the water, once the torch reaches its temperature limit, the torch switches off automatically thanks to its TSS system. ATTENTION !!! If you light on the torch outside the water the case may reach a temperature in excess of 70°C. Do not hit the torch. Do not expose the torch directly to the sunlight or to heat sources higher than 50°C. Store the torch in a dry and cool place (5°C/25°C) Do not try to open, modify or repair the torch on you own, always address it to Dive System or authorized assistance centres. Do not screw out the connector during diving. Dive System is not responsible for accidents deriving from an improper usage of the torch. The warranty is void if the security paint is removed.



6. TECHNICAL CHARACTERISTICS Laser etched aluminium case. Very homogeneous light Beam without any chromatic and/or spatial aberrations. CML System (“Constant Maximum luminosity”), allows to maintain to 100% the emitten luminous power for the whole declared autonomy. BLM System (“Backup Light Mode”), once the battery is exhausted the luminous power is reduced to the 20% allowing a backup light for at least 30 minutes. TSS System (“Temperature Safety System”), shouts down the torch if it reaches a critical temperature in order to avoid damages to the torch or to thing beside it. EEC System (“Efficient Exploitation Circuit”), permits to use the whole energy stored in the battery pack allowing high autonomies ad high luminous power. Sealed Li-ion Battery packs: 53W (22,2V 2,4A/h) or 106W/h (22,2V 4,8A/h). Magnetic switch. Light colour temperature: 7500°K (or 4000°K on request). Bean angle: +/- 8°. Reduced dimensions and weight. Lighting head dimensions: � max 58mm, � min 40mm, length 116mm Battery pack dimensions model 106W/h: � 64mm, length 210mm Battery pack dimensions model 53W/h: � 53mm, length 202mm Recharge without extracting the battery pack with an intelligent charger. Maximum tested depth: 300meter.(Each light produced is tested in a hyperbaric chamber at a pressure of 31 atm)



Available configurations with 53W/h battery pack:

Available configurations with 106W/h battery pack:

7. BATTERY RECHARGE The LithiumLed-Speleo torch is available with two different battery pack, 53W/h and 106W/h. The recharge time may vary between 2,5 hours (for the 53W/h battery pack) up to 4,5 hours (for the 106W/h battery pack). The battery pack is constructed with Li-ion cells. Using Li-ion technology the memory effect is very reduced. Moreover the battery pack is provided with a redistribution circuit which allows to arise the efficiency during charge and discharge cycles. We suggest to discharge completely the battery pack before recharging in order to have complete charging cycles. We suggest to not stop a non terminated recharge cycle. To recharge the torch it is not necessary to disassemble the torch.



The connector for the recharge is the same as the one used to connect the lighting head

Make sure that the switch is on the OFF position “0”, before removing the plug of the lighting head. To recharge the battery pack screw out the security bolt, remove the lighting head plug and insert the battery charger plug. Insert the battery charter plug to the network, the charging process will start automatically. ATTENTION!!! Make sure that the switch is on the OFF position before and during the charge process. Do not use non original battery chargers. If you do not use the torch for a long period we suggest to recharge completely the battery pack and to store it in a dry and cool (5°C/25°C) place. Remind to recharge the battery pack at least once every 3-4 months. Do not recharge the battery in a hot and wet place.
