ARC NiMH low battery warning
and discharge protection
The ARC NiMH HID also incorporates a low battery warning
mode. If the battery capacity drops below a certain
threshold, or becomes discharged, the light head will
automatically go into the lowest power setting and the LED
will begin to flash quickly. This signifies you have approximately
15 minutes of battery power left. If the battery is continued
to be discharged , the light head will automatically go into an
ultra-low mode and the light will dim significantly.The green
LED will also begin to flash very rapidly for one minute.The
light will then automatically shut down to preserve the
battery. If the light head shuts down it can’t be restarted until
the battery is recharged.
Note: The HID lamp used in the ARC emits a weak
electromagnetic field and will interfere with some wireless
cycle computers and heart rate monitors.
Hint: If the ARC HID fails to light on the first try, either
unplug the light from the battery, or press and hold the start
button for 3 seconds. Then wait 10 seconds to clear the
memory before following the starting procedure again.
