Scubapro Module Light Manuel page 3

The SCUBAPRO Module Light comes with a quick charger that automatically
switches to trickle charging once the batteries are fully charged. The red light at
the front of the charger indicates the condition of the batteries. When the red light
burns uninterrupted, the batteries are charging.

! WARning
The batteries used in the SCUBAPRO Module Light battery packs are NiMh-
batteries. They are not subject to any memory effect and can be charged
or recharged at any time without affecting their capacity. However, this
type of battery is subject to self-discharging, therefore batteries that are
not recharged will be discharged after a period of 100 days. If after this
period the batteries are not charged, they will be deeply discharged and will
suffer irreparable damage. Please note that damage due to deep discharge
is not covered by the warranty as it is considered careless use. For optimum
battery life, you should charge the battery pack within 24 hours before
and after each use. If the dive torch or battery pack will not be used for an
extensive period, it should be recharged at least once a month.
Using your Module Light
Halogen - LED
To switch on the light the light head must be screwed down into the battery pack
or into the umbilical. To switch off the light you can unscrew the light head half a
turn. SCUBAPRO Module Light battery packs are not equipped with any under-
tension security (except when HID and LED light heads are used) and therefore
have to be switched off to prevent a deep discharge as soon as the light intensity
decreases. Deep discharge will cause irreparable damage to the batteries.
HID
To switch on the light, the light head must be screwed down into the battery pack
or into the umbilical. To switch off the light you can unscrew the light head half
a turn. The electronics used in the HID light heads will automatically switch off
the light as soon as the capacity of the batteries becomes insufficient. This also
prevents deep discharging of the batteries. The SCUBAPRO Module HID (High
Intensity Discharge) light heads are equipped with HID bulbs, designed for long-
term use and very reliable. An HID bulb can be switched on and off approximately
2000 times and has an average life span of 1500 hours. To ensure a maximum
life span we recommend the following:
- once the light head is switched on it is advisable to keep it on for at least 3
minutes;
- once the light head is switched off it is advisable to wait at least 30 seconds
before switching it back on.
Once you switch an HID bulb on, it will take approximately 30 seconds before it
reaches full capacity.
