1 ABOUT YOUR FLASHLIGHT
The Elcometer 260 SureFire® Fluorescenator UV Pinhole
Flashlight is fitted with a six-watt-maximum purple Class
1 LED module. Its beam has a wavelength of 405 nm (+/
- 5 nm), which the human eye perceives as purple light.
Powered by two 3-volt lithium batteries, the Elcometer
260 has a battery life of approximately 45 minutes and
incorporates digital current regulation circuitry to match
the LED’s current requirements to the batteries’ output in
order to achieve a consistent level of light output for the
useable life of the batteries.
The Elcometer 260 features a click on / click off switch
and a patented lock-out tailcap to prevent the flashlight
being switched on in transit.

Safety Warning:
The Light-Emitting Diode (LED) used in this product emits Class 1 LED radiation. Do not look
directly into the beam, shine the beam into another person’s eye, or stare into the beam at close
range, as this could result in eye damage. Do not expose bare, unprotected skin to the beam. When using
the Elcometer 260, be aware of mirrors and / or reflective surfaces, as the beam can reflect back to the user
or others nearby. Use this product only for its intended purpose, in a safe, responsible manner.
