Operation instructions
Battery installation (see adjacent diagram)
1. Unscrew the tail cap in a counter-clockwise
direction.
2. Insert one dedicated battery with the
positive pole pointing forward (toward the
light head).
NOTE:
Ensure batteries are inserted with the
positive (+) end pointing to the head. The
MH2A will not operate with incorrectly
inserted batteries.
Charging indicator light
1. Connect the charging cable to the flashlight and the A/C power adapter to the wall
outlet as shown in the adjacent image. Fully charging a depleted dedicated battery
takes approximately 4 hours.
2. Under normal charging conditions, the red indicator light near the charging port will
blink twice every second.
3. If a problem is detected during the charging process, the MH2A will stop charging
and the red indicator will blink rapidly. This is usually caused by faulty or
incorrectly inserted batteries.
4. When charging is complete, the red indicator will illuminate steadily.

non-rechargeable batteries, AA batteries.
Brightness & Runtime
NOTICE
Stated data has been
measured according to
the international
flashlight testing
standards ANSI/NEMA
FL1 using one NITECORE
NL1427 battery (3.7V,
1500mAh) under
laboratory conditions.
The data may vary due
to individual usage
habits and environmental
conditions.
NITECORE (SYSMAX) is a member of PLATO, participating in and helping to develop
the ANSI FL1 standard of measurement. Product testing data is in accordance with
these internationally recognized scientific standards.
Caution:
The MH2A needs to be turned on in
order to enter charging mode.
Switching ON/OFF
To switch ON: Press the button on the tailcap until a “click” is heard.
To switch OFF: Press the button on the tailcap a second time until a “click” is heard.
Mode Switching
The Nitecore MH2A has two modes: Turbo and user-defined. These two modes can
be changed by simply tightening and loosening the flashlight head. Turbo provides
100% output while user-defined contains five selectable sub-modes.
Turbo Mode
Turbo mode provides an output of 600 lumens and is accessed when the flashlight is
switched ON with the head lightly tightened. While in this mode, momentary
illumination can be achieved by switching off the flashlight and then half pressing and
holding the switch.
Note: After three minutes of use in turbo mode, the flashlight will lower its
output automatically to preventing overheating and increase runtime.
User-Defined Mode
User-defined mode is accessed by slightly loosening the flashlight head. In this mode,
lightly and rapidly pressing the switch will cycle through brightness and other
functions in the following order: “High-Mid-Low-SOS-Strobe”. Pressing the switch all
the way down will save and memorize a desired setting.
Tips: Make NITECORE MH2A your perfect Multitask Hybrid flashlight.
NITECORE MH2A flashlights essentially have two modes: Turbo mode (100% output)
and custom mode. Turbo mode is accessed by tightening the flashlight head while
any of the five customizable modes (strobe, SOS, low, medium and high) are selected
by loosening the head and rapidly pressing the on/off switch to cycle through the
modes. A given mode can be saved by simply turn off the light while in that mode.
Real-world examples include: When used as a flashlight around the home, the head
can be loosened and low level selected in custom mode, providing long runtimes at a
lower light intensity. The same flashlight could then be taken out and used a
law-enforcement duty light, with user-defined mode set in strobe, making it easy to
alternate between turbo mode and strobe with a simple twist of the flashlight head.
Maintenance
Every 6 months, threads should be wiped with a clean cloth followed by a thin coating
of silicon-based lubricant.
