Operating Instructions

Battery installation

WARNING:

  1. Ensure the battery is inserted with the positive (+) end pointing towards the head. The EC11 will not be operational with an incorrectly inserted battery.
  2. The included battery magazine securely holds the (R)CR123 battery in place, thus stopping battery movement in the compartment.
  3. Please stop using and remove a depleted IMR18350 battery to avoid potential battery damage.

On / Off OperationTo switch ON: Press the ON/OFF button once.To switch OFF: Press the ON/OFF button once again to switch the light off and enter standby mode

Standby ModeWith the light switched on, press and hold the ON/OFF buttonli2Jtor more than one second to switch the light off and activate the secondary red LED to flash once every three seconds, thus helping the user locate the EC11 in dark conditions. When using a CR123 battery, the EC11 will operate for up to 6 consecutive days with the red LED on, or remain on standby for more than 170 days with the red LED off.

Brightness LevelsWith the EC11 switched on, press the MODE button repeatedly to cycle through the following brightness levels: ultra-low, low, medium, high and turbo. Once a mode is selected it will be saved and resumed when the EC11 is reactivated.

Instant Ultra-low OutputWith the light switched off, press and hold the ON/OFF button (!21 for more than one second to access ultra-low mode (1 lumen).

Instant Turbo OutputWith the light switched off, press and hold the MODE button (i] for more than one second to access turbo mode (900 lumens).NOTE: When in turbo mode, the EC11 will adjust output luminance automatically within 3 minutes of use to prevent overheating and extend battery longevity.

Red Light / Signal Light ModeWith the light switched off, press the MODE button Ii) to enter red light mode. In this mode, the secondary red LED will illuminate steadily.When in red light mode, press and hold the MODE button(i] for more than one second to enter signal light mode. In this mode, the secondary red LED will flash to serve as a signal light.Simply press any button to exit the red light /signal light mode.

Special modes (Strobe/Location/SOS)With the light switched on, press and hold the MODE button [i]for more than one second to enter Strobe mode. When in strobe mode, press and hold the MODE button [i]for more than one second again to cycle through Location Beacon, SOS and Strobe modes. To exit, simple press the MODE button (i]to resume the last used brightness level, or press the ON/OFF buttonto switch the light off.

Strobe ReadyWith the light switched off, press the MODE button(!] twice in quick succession to enter Strobe mode. To exit, simply press any button.

Lockout / UnlockWith the light switched on, press and hold the ON/OFF button li2] and the MODE button Ii) simultaneously for over one second to switch the light off and enter lockout mode. In lockout mode, the EC11 conserves battery power for over 170 days; the two buttons on EC11 will not work, thus preventing accidental activation of the light. To exit lockout mode, simply press and hold theON/OFF : button Ii and the MODE button[!) simultaneously for over one second again.

NOTE

  1. When entering lockout mode, the secondary red LED will continuously flash to indicate battery voltage. Please refer to the “Power Tips” section for more details.
  2. When the EC11 is kept in a backpack or left unused for extended periods, Nitecore recommends the tailcap is loosened or battery is removed to cut off the power entirely, thus preventing accidental activation of the flashlight or battery leakage .

Power Tips

After battery installation or lockout mode activation, the secondary red LED will flash to indicate battery voltage (accurate to 0.1V). For example, when battery voltage is at 4.2V, the red LED will flash 4 times, followed by a one second pause and another 2 flashes. Different voltages represent the corresponding remaining battery power levels:

Changing / Charging Battery
