I believe there is a tiny rubber "plug" on the body of the flashlight that you plug into....I gave it away as a gift awhile ago so I can't be sure.

here is a small charging port in the body of the flashlight. It has a rubber cap on it. remove the rubber cap and connect either the wall charger or car charger. The charger indicator will turn Green once battery is fully charged.

Plug the charger in the side of the light. There's a little rubber flap covering the round hole where the charger plugs in.

I don't know. I bought 3 in one shot and they didn't come with a charger. Total waste.

You should have received the car &/or the house charger witih the flashlight. If for some reason you didn't you can purchase them from the same place you purchased the flashlight.

It comes with a USB to mini USB cable and I charge mine by plugging the cord into the USB port on my monitor. My Samsung phone's charger uses a mini USB and it will work on the flashlight/battery, as well.

I use UltraFire BRC 18650 3.7V "4000mAh" rechargeable Li-ion Batteries which also hold a charge for long periods of non use.The C8 with this battery far surpasses AA & AAA flash lights.

Locate the on/off button. Unscrew the cap and remove. Pull out the battery holder. Remove batteries one at a time, pay attention to the direction they go in the holder. Put new batteries in the holder. Insert holder in the flashlight. Place the button cap back in place and screw it tight. Test operation of flashlight to verify.

Buy the battery and charger. I tried using CR123A batteries and burned the bulb out in one of my flashlights. You can search amazon and find a vendor that will sell you the ultrafire brand li-on 2pack with charger for around 13.00. It's well worth it.

For the battery cartridge as a whole, the end with the protruding bump goes down into the flashlight. The end wiht the hollowed bump goes toward the flashlight end with the on/off button. Make sure the batteries are snapped into the cartridge securely. The + and - are marked on both ends of the cartridge. Make sure they line up correctly with the batteries (the flat end of the battery is -). Once you screw the end of the flashlight on, press the black rubber button for on/off. If that doesn't work you could try new batteries

I used the one came with the light (http://www.amazon.com/CREE-Bicycle-Headlight-Files-Lumens/dp/B006Y1FK18/ref=pd_sim_sg_3). but i think this one should work: http://www.amazon.com/Intsun%C2%AE-Charger-HeadLight-Flashlight-Headlamp/dp/B00AELLFY0/ref=pd_sim_e_12

The manufacturer, Streetwise, recommends 8-12 hours of charging. It should be working by now. If not, the manufacturer offers a lifetime warranty. However, make certain it is not user error. If it turns out to be user error, they will charge a restocking fee and they will not pay any of the shipping. It will have a master switch on the tail end - near the charging port. Make sure that is turned on. Then, check the flashlight/stun gun switch. All the way back is off. The center position should turn on the flashlight. The forward position puts it in stun gun mode, then you'll need to push the stun gun activation button. Once you can be completely certain it isn't working, then make arrangements to return it for a warranty replacement.

For me this has become routine, I dump out the roasted batteries, scrub it out with hot water, let it all dry and then load it up again and go. I have never had a Maglight made unsalvageable by leaking batteries. I have worn out several through other means, switches especially and by usage as a blunt instrument. I recognize their limitations and consider them a great reasonably priced light. I do usually reach for the cree light first but I always make sure there is a D-cell Maglight close by.

The docking station has two spring backed metal push points that fit into 2 metal connect points located on the underside of the flashlight. All you literally have to do to charge that light is set it into the charger, just make sure the charger is plugged in :)

An 18650 rechargeable. Do not put 2 18350's in there. They will fit but it will destroy the light.

Good idea but, no low battery indicator light. As you suspected, at high intensity (1600 lm) the light works for a little over two hours then simply shuts off. However, long-term solution to this problem involves purchasing 2 (two) rechargeable 3.7V & 6000mAh; Li-ion protected with PCB (model #: 26650 &#8776; $16.00 for a pair). Of course, the final step in circumventing this problem is purchasing a recharging unit (the unit made by 4Sevens recharges a single battery in &#8776; 1 hour). Finally, these are very robust and versatile flashlight available to the public. Hope this assist you in making the right purchase for your particular needs Respectfully, Michael O'Grady

Buy the 18650 battery. You can usually find them with a charger included with a pair of the 18650 batteries. The flashlight should come with a plastic sleeve that holds one 18650 battery.

I just unscrew the flashlihgt from the shaft. When you do this it will reveal a "button" battery. Pop it out and replace. Reattach the flashlight . That is the best I can do for you. Jim

I do not know a lot of flashlights have this battery, Idea,,,take the flashlight to Walmart Jewelry n Dept/ they can easily get the battery out replace ..find out what battery you need then buy from Amazon thereafter-- as the prices are much better on Amazon!

I put in duracell AA battery in when I got it. It's still in there. I use the flashlight everyday ...4 times a day lighting up dark rooms a few minutes at a time.
