HybridLight MAMMOTH - User Manual

The HybridLight MAMMOTH is a versatile 400-lumen hybrid solar multi-light and charger designed for various lighting needs and mobile device charging. It offers multiple lighting modes, flexible positioning, and several charging options, making it a practical tool for everyday use, emergencies, and outdoor activities.

Function Description

The MAMMOTH serves primarily as a powerful light source and a portable charger. Its main lighting functions include a bright LED flashlight and a broader Area LED light. The flashlight provides a focused beam, while the Area LED light offers a wider spread of illumination, suitable for lighting up larger spaces. Both lighting modes can be dimmed for less intense light, and there's also a strobe lighting option for signaling or emergencies.

Beyond illumination, the MAMMOTH features a built-in power bank function, allowing users to charge their mobile devices or tablets on the go. This is particularly useful in situations where traditional power outlets are unavailable. The device is designed with a focus on self-sufficiency, incorporating solar charging capabilities to ensure it can be powered even without access to an electrical grid.

Usage Features

The MAMMOTH is designed for ease of use and adaptability. The On/Off switch controls all lighting modes. A single click activates the flashlight, while a second click switches to the Area LED light. For dimmed lighting, holding the button for one second (from off or Area Light mode) activates the dimmed Area Light, and holding it for two seconds enables the dimmed flashlight. A three-second hold activates the strobe lighting.

The physical design of the MAMMOTH enhances its usability. It features a 120° flexible head, allowing users to direct the light precisely where needed. The 360° rotating base further expands its positioning options, making it easy to adjust the light's direction without moving the entire unit. A magnetic base with a folding hook provides versatile mounting options, enabling users to attach the light to metallic surfaces or hang it for hands-free operation.

Charging the MAMMOTH itself is flexible, with three primary methods. The most straightforward is using the fold-out two-prong wall plug, which allows direct connection to a standard wall outlet. Alternatively, a micro USB port is available for charging via a USB cable connected to any standard USB charger or wall outlet. For off-grid charging, the integrated solar charging panel allows the device to trickle charge from sunlight or other bright light sources. Charge level indicators, represented by four blue lights, provide a clear visual of the rechargeable cell's charge status, with solid lights indicating the charge percentage.

When using the MAMMOTH to charge a mobile device, users simply open the rubber port guard, insert a compatible USB cable into the larger of the two ports, and connect the other end to their device. The device will not charge a mobile device if its own battery is below 20%, ensuring that some power is reserved for the worklight's primary function.

Maintenance Features

The MAMMOTH is designed for durability and minimal maintenance. It uses a rechargeable 4400 mAh Lithium-Ion battery, which is designed to be long-lasting and does not require replacement, eliminating the need to purchase and dispose of traditional batteries.

To ensure optimal performance and longevity, users should inspect the device before each use for any broken, bent, cracked, or damaged parts. Any unit that appears damaged or operates abnormally should be removed from service. The device should not be disassembled, as the LED cannot be replaced. It is also important to avoid operating the flashlight near fire, flammable liquids, or in gaseous or explosive atmospheres. Children should not use the flashlight unsupervised, and users should avoid shining the light directly into eyes. Before attempting any cleaning or maintenance, the unit should be unplugged.

The MAMMOTH is built with a focus on reliability, backed by a warranty against defects in material and workmanship, excluding abuse, misuse, modification, or accidents. This commitment to quality ensures that users can rely on their MAMMOTH for consistent performance over time.
