Rechargeable Lithium battery powered lights are available in many convenient configurations and sizes. They are unmatched for convenience and variety. There are, however, some safety points to follow for safe use.

  • Never shine the light directly into your eyes or shine it into someone else’s eyes. The brightness can cause vision damage if misused in this manner.
  • Do not leave the light on if it is resting on a surface with the light shining against the surface. The energy of the light that is “trapped” against the adjacent surface can increase the temperature to the extent that damage, or a fire, can occur.
