StreamLight Stinger Serie Instrucciones De Funcionamiento página 5

3. Although the Stinger is designed to be left on charge continuously, there is an exception; if the surrounding
temperature is below 10°F, continuous charging is not recommended.
4. There are special considerations to note when using multi-cell rechargeable nickel-cadmium batteries, such as
found in the Stinger. If a nickel-cadmium battery is subjected to repeated and extensive overdeep discharges,
such as an aggressive conditioning procedure to eliminate "memory," which runs the battery down completely
on a regular basis, it can experience a voltage reversal of one of the individual cells. This may cause a buildup
of pressure within the cell which can lead to venting of the electrolyte, cell damage and early battery failure. In
addition, should the pressure relief vent on the top of the battery become damaged, this pressure increase could
cause the cell to burst, causing damage to the Stinger, and possible personal injury.
5. To obtain the safest and longest service from your rechargeable products, Streamlight, in conjunction with the
leading manufacturers of nickel-cadmium batteries, offers the following recommendations:
A. Do not periodically "condition" or "exercise" your flashlight battery despite what you may have been told
about nickel-cadmium "memory." According to the most recent technical manuals of battery manufac-
turers, the actual existence of "memory" in a battery used under the conditions of flashlight service is
extremely unlikely. Streamlight specifically discourages a regular ritual of deep discharging, which is not
only unnecessary, but will greatly shorten lamp and battery life.
B. If the battery is overdischarged, there may be a small leakage of alkaline electrolyte from the safety
vent on top of the cell. It appears as a powdery substance and can affect the integrity of the electrical
contact. We recommend that your battery be periodically inspected and the contact area wiped clean
should any electrolyte be present. Use caution when handling a battery that has leaked. The electrolyte
is a strong caustic and can burn or irritate the skin and eyes.
: Be sure to use genuine Streamlight replacement parts. Use of another manufacturer's replacement parts
