Using your Blackburn Grid Side Beacon Lighting Set is a breeze. First, decide if you want to use it as a stand - alone light or part of the Luminate 360 Light Set. If you choose to mount it, use the reusable silicone straps to attach it to either side of your fork. Before your first use, make sure to fully charge the light using the dual - headed charger and any standard USB port. You can select different lighting modes depending on your needs. The high - solid mode gives a bright, continuous light for 1.5 hours, great for well - lit areas. The low - solid mode offers a softer light for 3 hours, ideal for less - traveled paths. The high - flash and low - strobe modes are perfect for increasing your visibility at intersections and can last for 3 and 6 hours respectively. When it comes to maintenance, since the light is IP - 65 rated, it can handle a bit of water and dust. But it's still a good idea to dry it off if it gets wet. Also, keep it away from extreme temperatures and store it in a cool, dry place when not in use. And remember to recharge it regularly to ensure it's always ready for your next ride.
