Voltage: 4.2V.

The included ARB-L16-700UP Li-ion battery can be directly charged with a micro USB port. The indicator will display red while charging and will turn blue when fully charged. The normal charging time of the included Fenix ARB-L16-700UP is approximately 2 hours from depletion to full charging.
Q5. How to prevent accidentally activate the GL22?
Lock: with the light switched off, simultaneously press and hold both switches for 5 seconds to lock the light, the light will blink twice on white light to indicate locked status.
Unlock: with the light locked, simultaneously press and hold both switches for 1 second, the light will be unlocked and activated on the previously used output.
*In locked status, clicking or pressing either of the switches will activate 2 one-second blinks on white light to indicate locked status.
Q6. Why does the GL22 downshift to a lower mode after being used for a while and the higher mode cannot be selected?
There are two reasons:
1. Intelligent Overheat Protection
The light will accumulate a lot of heat when used on higher output levels for extended periods. When the light reaches a temperature of 60°C or above, the light will automatically step down a few lumens to reduce the temperature. When the temperature drops below 60°C, it will then allow the user for the reselection of higher modes.
2. Low-voltage Warning
When the voltage level drops below the preset level, the flashlight is programmed to downshift to a lower brightness level until to 50 lumens. When this happens in 50 lumens, the light blinks 3 times every 5 minutes to remind you to recharge or replace the battery.
Q7. Why does the GL22 happen to flicker?
The reasons that may cause the light to flicker, shine intermittently or even fail to illuminate:
1. Poor battery level.
Solution: Recharge or replace the battery.
2. The contact or contact point of the battery or flashlight is dirty.
Solution: Clean the contact points with a cotton swab soaked in rubbing alcohol.
If the above methods don't work, please contact your authorized distributor.

It is recommended to use Fenix ARB-L16-700UP or Fenix ARB-L16-700P battery. And compatible with CR123A Lithium battery.
Other Li-ion batteries are not recommended. As Higher modes fail to light up due to current and voltage limitation, an unmatched battery may cause the light to fail to work normally.
