Battery Charging – 

See Figure 1 

Supplied with headlamp: Self-contained lithium rechargeable 

battery, micro-USB charging cable. 

Princeton Tec suggests using a charger with output of 5V, 

1A. This charger will fully charge the battery pack in 3 to 

4 hours. Slower charging will be achieved with a charger 

rated with lower amperage. Some computer USB ports 

may not have sufficient output to charge this or any USB 

rechargeable product. Under normal usage, the supplied 

lithium ion battery pack will last for approximately 1,000 

charge / discharge cycles.

• Red battery charge level LEDs indicate battery state. Red 

LEDs pulse when charging is in progress. 

• Charging has completed when both LEDs are illuminated.

• Low Battery Indication:  When the battery level reaches 

25% the light will blink once indicating the charge is low.  

Once battery level drops below 20% the light will blink 

twice and drop to the lowest setting in the current mode.  

Dial functionality will be disabled to provide the maximum 

amount of time before the battery is completely drained 

and the light shuts off.

WARNING 

!

Do not disassemble; no user serviceable parts.

General Care and Warnings
• Properly charge the battery to maximize its lifespan. Lithium 

ion batteries do not suffer from a “memory effect,” and for 

battery longevity it is preferable to charge more frequently 

if possible, rather than to fully deplete the battery’s charge.

• To avoid damaging your lighting system, use only chargers 

that meet the approved specifications.

• Axis Rechargeable is not submersible. Submerging in water 

will damage the lighting system and void the warranty.

• To keep your lighting system looking new, use a mild soap 

and water solution with a rag or sponge to periodically wipe 

off dirt.

Switch Operation 

– See Figure 1

• A single press activates 

red mode 

at 70% output. 

• Double press activates

 white spot mode

 at 70% output. 

• Triple press activates 

white flood mode

 at 70% output. 

• In any mode, the dial is used for dimming.

 -Clockwise dims to 10% output. Once minimum is 

achieved, further rotation will not do anything.

 -Counter clockwise brightens to 100% output. Once 

maximum is achieved, further rotation will not do anything.

 -Counter  clockwise  from  flood  mode  activates 

dual-

beam mode.

• A single press occurring more than two seconds after the 

previous button press will turn the light off.

• 

Lock out Mode

 to prevent accidental activation: Can only 

be activated during OFF mode. To enter Lockout mode, 

press and hold button for three seconds. To indicate 

success,  two  red  LEDs  will  flash  according  to  battery 

voltage chart (see figure 2).

Troubleshooting
If the Axis Rechargeable fails to light:

• Check the charge state of battery by either 1. Locking out the 

light by holding down the power button, or 2. Plugging light 

into power source and observing battery charge level LEDs.

• To reset headlamp if there are any functional errors, press 

and hold the button for 20 seconds.
