1 ABOUT YOUR FLASHLIGHT
The Elcometer 260 UV Pinhole Flashlight is fitted with a
one-watt-maximum purple Class 1 LED module. Its beam
has a wavelength of 405nm (+/-5nm), which the human
eye perceives as a purple light.
Powered either by either two disposable CR123A lithium
batteries, or a type 18650 rechargeable lithium ion
battery, the Elcometer 260 UV Pinhole Flashlight has a
battery life of approximately 6 hours.
Elcometer 260 UV Pinhole Flashlight incorporates digital
current regulation circuitry to match the LED’s current
requirements to the batteries’ output in order to achieve a
consistent level of light output for the useable life of the
batteries.
The Elcometer 260 UV Pinhole Flashlight features a click on/ click off switch and alock-out tailcap to prevent
the flashlight being switched on in transit.
Safety Warning:
The Light-Emitting Diode (LED) used in this product emits Class 1 LED radiation. Do not look
directly into the beam, shine the beam into another person’s eye, or stare into the beam at close
range, as this could result in eye damage. Do not expose bare, unprotected skin to the beam.
When using the Elcometer 260, be aware of mirrors and / or reflective surfaces, as the beam
can reflect back to the user or others nearby. Use this product only for its intended purpose, in
a safe, responsible manner.

Lithium batteries can explode or cause burns if disassembled, shorted, recharged, or exposed to
water, fire or high temperatures. Do not place loose batteries in a pocket, purse or other
container containing metal objects, mix with used or other battery types, or store with hazardous
or combustible materials. Store in a cool, dry, ventilated area. Disposal of batteries by fire,
mutilation or disassembly may result in toxic chemical release and / or explosion.
Do not attempt to recharge disposable lithium batteries. Do not leave lithium ion rechargeable
batteries unattended during recharging. Do not use an unprotected lithium ion rechargeable
battery. Do not recharge lithium ion batteries in any chargers other than those designed for the
specific battery types being used.
Note: Lithium batteries must be disposed of carefully to avoid environmental contamination. Please consult
your local Environmental Authority for information on disposal in your region.
Do not dispose of any batteries in fire.
3 LIGHT ACTIVATION
Partially depress the tailcap push button switch for momentary activation. For constant light, fully depress
the tailcap push button switch to the “click-on” position. Turn off when changing the batteries.
Aim the flashlight towards the surface to be inspected and then turn on the beam. Wear the UV filter glasses
provided to improve the contrast of defects in the fluorescent coating.
