Congratulations on your purchase of the Orion RedBeam SP
Self-Powered Red LED Flashlight! The RedBeam SP is a
groundbreaking astronomy accessory that will never require
replacement batteries. That’s right, never! Simply rotating the
built-in handle on the RedBeam SP charges its internal battery
and allows you to illuminate your astronomy equipment and
observing charts. The RedBeam SP utilizes red LEDs (Light
Emitting Diodes) which allow you to retain your dark-adapted
vision while still providing light.
Charging the RedBeam SP
The RedBeam SP is self-powered by rotating the built-in han-
dle. When charging the flashlight, be sure the function switch
is set to the flashlight icon and the power switch is set to the
OFF position (Figure 1). Unfold the handle arm and grasp the
end of the handle in one hand while holding the flashlight body
firmly in the other hand (Figure 2). Rotate the handle clock-
wise or counter-clockwise to charge the flashlight. Turning the
handle continuously for a period of one minute will provide
up to 15 minutes of light at the LO setting or 10 minutes of
illumination at the HI setting. While you are turning the handle,
the indicator light on the bottom of the flashlight (Figure 2) will
shine to show the RedBeam SP is receiving charge.
You can fully charge the RedBeam SP with your computer
by using the USB charge feature. Plug the male end of the
included charge cable into the DC jack on the back end of the
flashlight (Figure 3). Plug the USB end of the charge cable
into the USB port of your computer. The indicator light on the
bottom of the flashlight will shine when the RedBeam SP is
receiving charge from the computer’s USB port. It will take 5
hours to receive a full charge. This will give you 2 hours at LO
or 1.5 hours at HI.
Operation
To turn the flashlight on once it has been charged, simply set
the power switch to the LO or HI setting. Setting the switch to
LO will illuminate three of the red LEDs while setting the switch
to HI will illuminate all five LEDs for a wider and brighter beam.
Be sure the function switch near the end of the flashlight is set
to the flashlight icon, or the LEDs will not shine.

There is a small compass set into the handle of the RedBeam
SP. To use the compass most effectively, unfold the handle and
hold it horizontally so the compass is free to rotate.
Cell phone Charging Function
The RedBeam SP can also be used as an emergency cell
phone charger if the need should arise. We have included five
adapters for use with many models of cell phone (Figure 4).
NOTE: The cell phone charging function may not work with all
makes and models of cell phone.
To use the RedBeam SP as an emergency cell phone charger,
plug the appropriate adapter into your cell phone and then
plug the adapter into the female end of the included charging
cable. Plug the USB end of the charging cable into the USB
port of the RedBeam SP (Figure 3). Set the function switch
near the end of the flashlight to the cell phone icon (Figure
1). Rotate the handle to begin charging the connected cell
phone. The indicator light on the bottom of the flashlight will
shine while the cell phone is being charged. The RedBeam
SP will provide approximately 15 minutes of standby time, or
approximately 2 minutes of talking time, for every 120 turns
of the handle.
