Astrolux FT03
The FT03 is a powerful EDC lamp. Rechargeable over Type-C 2A USB port It is fitted with one luminus
SST40.2 and uses a NarsilM v1.3 Firmware.
USER MANUAL
Safety precautions
Use only reputable 26650 cell of known origin. (Recommended unprotected >10A discharging
current battery)
Use a type-C cable for charging.
Remove and recharge cells when the low voltage indication is given by the FT03 (4 blinks and
repeated step-downs in light level and eventual shutdown of the light).
The extraordinary energy density that 26650 cell offers also means that hazardous conditions are
created when a cell is short-circuited or damaged. Always treat cells with respect and properly
dispose of damaged cells.
The FT03 is a very high-intensity flashlight. Do not point the lamp directly at a person, animal,
moving vehicles or flammable materials.
When running at higher output levels the head of the FT03 will quickly heat. This is normal. In
warmer ambient conditions this temperature may exceed 60ºC, so please take the necessary
precautions when handling the FT03.
Quick start
Unscrew the tail-cap and insert a 26650 cell.
Double check the polarity every time before
closing: The battery must point with plus (nipple) towards the head.
Screw the tail-cap back. The FT03 will flash twice when electrical contact is made. Continue to
tighten the tail-cap to a gentle stop. Do not overtighten.
All functions are performed using the single side button. Note that pressing this button
continuously for more than 16 s enters the UI configuration settings (indicated by the light
blinking). If this is done inadvertently, exit the configuration settings by simply releasing the
button briefly then pressing it again continuously for about 4 s until all the resulting blinks stops.
