Uncomplicating the TL-50 Battery Change

Here we go......My first blog with many to come with news and information about Switronix products........



One of the foremost TL-50 concerns of end users is that the internal LiPo battery only runs the light 3 hours and then what(many users have emailed me saying they're getting 3.5hrs). Our company offers additional batteries(part#TLB11) which you can easily swap out, and keep you going.

The next question I seem to always get is "how do I change the battery?" Below are the simple steps to do so.

The TL-50 is comprised of 2 parts. It has a threaded aluminum canister which houses the LED light array, as well as covers the electronics; and a 2nd part which holds all the electronics and battery components.

The front canister is simply removed by unscrewing it in a
counter-clockwise motion. Once removed, it reveals the electronics and
battery within the TL-50.





Then locate the 2-pin connector at the end of the battery wire,
disconnect it, and reconnect a freshly charged battery.




One last concern was asked regarding charging the TLB11 batteries since the TL-50 comes standard with a charger which can only charge the battery through the light housing(kind of
like a cell phone charger).

We offer a stand alone charger(part# TLBC) which allows you to remove the battery from the TL-50(or charge your spare) and plug it directly into any AC wall outlet. It also has LED indication to let you know when the battery is fully charged.

Whether charging through the TL-50 light, or the TLBC charger, the charge time is 2 hours flat!


If you have a question about one of our products, let me know, and I'll blog about it.

All the best. RK
