Black Diamond electronics, headlamps and lanterns operate with different types of batteries

Batteries contain various chemical elements that are harmful for the environment and can be reused. To preserve these materials for other uses, every effort should be made to recycle batteries of all types, sizes, and chemistries.

Lithium-ion (Li-ion) Batteries

These batteries are hardy and can be recharged hundreds of times. Once the battery is unable to recharge it can be recycled at a collection facility.

Button Batteries
Two-cell Lithium batteries (such as CR2032 style) cannot be recharged and should be recycled once they lose their charge. Warning: Button cell batteries pose a chocking hazard, and contain silver and mercury which can be harmeful if ingested.  Store these batteries out of reach of young children.

Dry Cell Batteries
Alkaline batteries (such as AAA or AA syle) cannot be recharged and should be recycled once they lose their charge. These batteries contain valuable materials and are harmful to the environment when thrown away.

TIPS TO PROLONG BATTERY LIFE

There are a few ways to extend battery life.
- Maintain proper charge levels.
- Do not allow the device to fully discharge.
- Connect the right charger to your device.
- Do not charge battery in extreme temperatures.

WARNING!

Never use batteries that show any signs of damage. Do not drop, crush, puncture, or modify batteries in any way. Never use batteries that are dented, swollen, or leaking. Keep batteries away from electromagnetic sources.

Always replace the batteries in your headlamp with a full set of brand new, high quality batteries. Do not mix manufacturer. Do not install batteries of unknown charge. Failure to follow these instructions can result in batteries exploding or leaking.
