The remote switch can be used to turn the light on or off
or change intensity settings while riding.
Never look directly at or shine the flashlight into the eyes
of a person or animal.
The flashlight should be used under adult supervision only.
Avoid contact with the area near the lens of the flashlight after
periods of use, as it may be extremely hot.
Avalanche transceivers can experience interference from all
electronic devices in close proximity, including flashlights
—even when they are powered off. Do not use your flashlight
in close proximity to an avalanche transceiver in use. For more
informat ion on avalanche transceiver interference, refer to the
manufacturer of your transceiver.
Charge the flashlight battery in temperatures between 5˚C and
40˚C. Do not charge or store the battery in extreme

Heat Warning
The Mountain Lab Gear X1800 is an incredibly bright flashlight
that produces more than twice the light output of a 60 watt
incandescent light bulb. Heat is a natural and unavoidable
byproduct of such intense energy output, and the generation of
heat should be expected with normal use of the product.
For safety, the X1800 is marked with a “HOT” warning in the
area near the flashlight lens, where the heat is generated.
WARNING: Avoid contact with the area near the lens of the
flashlight after periods of use, as it may be extremely hot.
Circuit Protection
Should the internal components of the X1800 Flashlight reach
75˚C as a result of extended use at a bright intensity setting, the
flashlight will automatically switch to the Medium intensity
setting. Once the temperature drops to 65˚C, the flashlight will
revert back to the higher intensity setting.
High Temperature Protection
If the temperature of the internal components reaches 85˚C, the
light will automatically shut down as a safety measure.
