Features

NOTE: X2 battery packs will not work with the X3® or X26™ CEWs, and battery packs designed for the X3 or X26

CEWs will not work with the X2 CEW.

Do not store the PPM anywhere that the gold contacts on the top of the PPM may touch metal objects. If you

cause an electrical short between these contacts, the short will drain the lithium energy cells and may cause the

pack itself to become dangerously hot.

The PPM battery has enough power for approximately 500 5-second discharges depending on temperature,

environment, use of the flashlight, and other factors. The PPM battery will deplete faster in colder weather than

warm weather. Likewise, the battery will deplete faster with the flashlight active.

For more information on installing the PPM, see the Changing the PPM section in this manual.

NOTE: Other battery pack options are available for the X2 CEW. See the Tactical Performance Power Magazine

(TPPM) Battery Pack and Automatic Shut-Down Performance Power Magazine (APPM) Battery Pack sections in

this manual.

Inspect the battery contacts. Ensure that they appear in working order and are free from dirt or other residue

that may interrupt the battery connection to the CEW.

Install the new PPM and ensure that it is fully inserted into the X2 CEW. Apply sufficient force to ensure the

PPM is fully seated. When the PPM battery pack seats properly, the PPM release button should pop out from

the recessed position with an audible click.
