4 AA LED HEADLAMP
Operating and Maintenance Instructions
ENGLISH:
Battery Charging – See Figure 1
4 AA
• Lithium (L91)
• Alkaline (LR6)
• Rechargeable Nicad or NiMH
Release battery tray using the headband tool or coin. Slide the battery
tray out of the battery pack. Observe proper battery polarity when
installing the batteries.
!
WARNING
• Never mix fresh and used batteries
• Never mix different battery brands or chemistry types.
• Always remove drained batteries immediately.
• Remove batteries during long periods of storage.
Princeton Tec cares about the environment and recommends recycling
batteries. For more information about battery recycling, please go to:

Improper installation of batteries will damage the light and void
the warranty.
Lithium batteries hold a charge better in extreme cold weather and are
lighter in weight than Alkaline or rechargeable batteries. Rechargeable
Nicad or NiMH batteries may result in reduced brightness in some
modes due to lower voltage.
The battery pack has a waterproof seal. It is important to keep this
seal free from dirt and harsh chemicals in order to preserve waterproof
integrity. Inspect the seal every time batteries are charged. If dirt is
present, wipe gently with a damp cotton swab and mild soap until
dirt is removed.
NOTE: Some battery types can emit hydrogen gas, which can create
an explosion potential in sealed devices if it is not vented or removed.
The Apex battery pack is equipped with a platinum catalyst that will
remove this gas. When replacing the batteries, visually inspect for
broken or missing catalyst. If the catalyst appears to be damaged,
(you may notice gray particles in the battery compartment), do not use
headlamp. See the warranty and return policy for more information.
Switch Operation – See Figure 2
The left button is marked with a large circle representing the single
Maxbright LED. The Left button controls the spot beam.
The right button is marked with 4 small bumps to represent the 4
Ultrabright LEDs. The right button controls the flood beam and strobe.
• Single press the left button to activate high spot
• Double press the left button to activate medium spot
• Triple press the left button to activate low spot
• Single press the left button to activate (after 1.6 seconds): off
• Single press the right button to activate flood mode (memory)
• Double press the right button to activate high flood
• Triple press the right button to activate low flood
• Quadruple Press the right button to activate strobe
• Single press the right button (after 1.6 seconds): off
• To activate dimming, When light is on, in spot or flood modes,
press and hold to activate dimming. The LEDs will blink once to
indicate lowest or highest settings.
• Memory In flood mode; After the flood LEDs brightness levels are
set (activated by the right hand button), and then turned off, the
next time the flood is turned back on, it will recall the previous
brightness setting.
Battery Power Meter

Battery Capacity*
Green
> 40 % of total
Yellow
≤ 40 % of total
Red
~ 20 minutes of runtime remaining
*Capacity percentage is the minimum expected remaining power
needed to operate the Maxbright LED in high mode at 0º C.
The purpose of the battery power meter is to give you a general idea
of the remaining runtime. Switching modes can create an abrupt
change in battery voltage which may cause the indicator to change
color. Once the color turns yellow, the runtime remaining depends on
typical discharge curve for the type of batteries you are using. After
the light has been turned off, the battery voltage might temporarily
increase, causing the battery power meter to temporarily display an
artificially higher setting.
When the light is off, the battery power meter will continue to blink for
24 hours to indicate the current status of the batteries. After 24 hours
with no activity, the battery power meter will turn off to conserve battery
power. When the light is turned on again, it will resume functioning.

Runtime is defined as the duration of time from the initial light output value—defined as 30 seconds after the point the device is first
turned on—using fresh batteries, until the light output reaches 10% of the initial value.
Reserve time is the duration of time from 10% of initial light output value down to 0.25 lux
Low Battery Signaling During Use
In addition to displaying red on the battery power meter, when there
are approximately 20 minutes of run time remaining, the Apex will blink
three times in rapid succession.
You can then decide to stay at your current light level or switch to a
lower light level, which may cause battery voltage to rise enough that
the battery power meter transitions back to yellow. When the battery
power meter returns to red, the light will blink again to alert you.
Circuitry
The Apex uses a sophisticated circuit to control the light. Under normal
circumstances, the metal heatsink will sufficiently cool the electronics
and protect the LEDs from damage. Should the internal temperature
of the light get too hot, a backup temperature protection circuit will
activate and gradually decrease the light output until the temperature
is within the specified limits.
The Apex will automatically turn off after 12 hours of inactivity. Any
button press during the 12 hour period will reset the auto-off timer.
Never attempt to disassemble the lamp housing. It is sealed to protect
the components from water and there are no user-serviceable parts
inside. Dissassembly will void your warranty!
To keep the heatsink at peak performance, keep the heatsink and
plastic cover free of obstructions (mud and dirt). Do not remove the
heatsink cover —it is there to protect you from the high temperature
of the heatsink during operation. If the heatsink cover is damaged or
broken under normal use, do not use the headlamp. See the warranty
and return policy for more information.
Power Consumption
The Apex uses a current-controlled circuit that maintains constant
light output as long as the batteries have sufficient voltage. Constant
run time is dependant on battery type, LEDs and light level selected.
Troubleshooting
If the Apex fails to light:
• Check the batteries for proper installation.
• Inspect the cable for damage.
If the Apex does not seem to change brightness levels:
• The battery voltage may be too low to switch to a brighter setting.
This condition is normal for a regulated LED/current-controlled
circuit. You are most likely to experience this issue in the Maxbright
LED mode. Install new batteries and recheck the modes.
• In extreme heat conditions the international temperature of the light
may be too hot and the LED temperature protection circuit may have
activated. Allow the light to cool and try again.
