How long does the battery last?
Up to 57 hours at the 5-lumen ULTRALOW setting. Higher-output modes have shorter runtimes. The built-in battery has a capacity of 3,800mAh.
Does it support USB-C charging, and how long does charging take?
Yes. A full charge takes approximately 1 hour and 45 minutes with a 5V/2A adapter. A USB-C charging cable is included; an adapter is not listed in the supplied package contents.
How can I prevent accidental activation?
Use the Rapid Lock™ switch to select Half Lockout or Full Lockout before carrying the flashlight in a pocket or bag. Follow the manufacturer’s operating instructions.
How durable is it?
The EDC31 has an IP68 rating, a 2-meter submersion rating, and 2-meter impact resistance. Its aluminum-alloy body has an HA III hard-anodized finish. These ratings do not mean it is damage-proof.
