Explanation of the system
The Lync lighting system uses a
rechargeable Lithium Ion battery to power a
headlight and two taillights. Each light uses
a high-output LED (Light-Emitting Diode)
with a specially-engineered reflector. This
combination creates a light that is visible
from a wide angle.
Tools needed
The Lync includes a micro-USB cable for
recharging the battery. You will need a
2mm hex wrench to adjust the angle of the
headlight.
Parts of the system
This section explains each component of the
Lync system (Figure 1): battery pack, dock,
headlight, taillights, control panel, and wires.

Battery pack
The Lync system uses a Lithium Ion battery,
which is housed inside a small case, or
battery pack. The battery pack can easily
be removed from the bike for recharging.
Specifications:
• Lithium Ion battery
• 3100mAh 3.7V

Notice: Avoid mishandling of the battery
pack. These actions or others can cause
damage to or permanently disable the
battery pack:
• Recharging the battery when hot, such as
• Cleaning the battery pack with a high-
• Dropping or impacting the battery pack
• Immersing the battery pack in water
• Opening or puncturing the battery pack
• Short-circuiting the terminals
With a full charge, the battery should power
the Lync light system for about two hours
forty minutes at full power, or five hours at
low power. This time will vary according to
battery condition, temperature, and other
environmental factors. When the battery
charge is at 10% or lower, a red indicator
light will flash on the upper portion of the
battery pack. The indicator light stops
flashing if the battery pack is removed from
the bike.
Traveling with Lithium Ion batteries
With a Lithium Ion battery, certain restrictions
Headlight
on travel apply. If the terminals are shorted
on a Lithium Ion battery, it can cause the
battery to overheat and possibly cause
a fire. For this reason, airlines do not allow
Lithium Ion batteries in checked baggage;
you must put Lithium Ion batteries in your
carry-on. Always check with the carrier before
traveling with Lithium Ion batteries.
Extending the battery life
The Lync system battery is a long-life system.
The expected life of the battery is 300 to 400
charges. To extend the battery life, store
it in a mostly-charged (not fully-charged)
condition at room temperature, and avoid
extreme temperatures when recharging.
Storing the battery pack
When not using the battery pack for long
periods of time such as a week or more,
store it at room temperature in a dry place.
Avoid moisture, or extreme hot or cold.
Store the battery pack in the charged
condition. Battery life will decrease if the
battery pack is stored in a fully-discharged
condition.
