Can I clean my GoMotion light?
Yes, do not use an ammonia based cleaner (i.e. Windex). Use a gentle soap & water mix on a damp towel and wipe clean. Don’t submerge the led module or battery pack.

You can remove all the electronic components of your LiteVest or LiteBelt, and wash the pack or belt in normal gentle cycle wash. Please refer to the owner’s manual (link) for removal/installation instructions.

 


Is my GoMotion light waterproof?
We have designed our GoMotion lights and battery packs to meet the international water resistant rating of IPX-3. It can withstand direct showers, but is not meant for submersion.

 


Are GoMotion lights “regulated”?
Yes. The power source is regulated to provide a consistent output over the life of the batteries. Unregulated lights tend to start out bright, but quickly start to drop off in output.

 


Why does the color of the power & mode buttons change?
The GoMotion lights have been designed to include real time battery condition feedback. The green light means your batteries are healthy. When the light changes to red, it indicates that your batteries have dropped to below 10% of remaining life. You can push the mode button to reduce brightness to the next level, and the light will change back to green to indicate you have more than 10% battery life remaining.

 

Are my batteries rechargeable?
GoMotion lights are supplied with standard AA alkaline batteries from Energizer. They are not rechargeable. GoMotion does offer a rechargeable nickel metal hydride (NiMH) battery kit with wall charger included.

 

Do all GoMotion products accept the Rechargeable Kit?
No. The Sport Runner Lite Belt, 1W Sternum Light Kit (SLK) and Waist Light Kit (WLK) do not support the

GoMotion Rechargeable Kit. This was done in an effort to keep the price as competitive as possible on this product. You can use 3 x 1.5 volt standard after-market AA size rechargeable batteries with an external charger in the Sport Runner, 1WSLK and 1W-WLK.


How long will my batteries last?
This is a very broad question as so many things, such as temperature, or how long the batteries were on a shelf, can effect battery life. It is also very dependant on what brightness setting you chose to run your light. Using standard AA new batteries, you can expect the following estimated times for continuous use (longer if intermittent use):

3 Watt:
High – 3 hrs; Med – 7 hrs; Low – 18+ hrs

1 Watt:
High – 6 hrs; Med – 12 hrs; Low – 20+ hrs

Note: These are regulated times. You will see some lighting companies give both regulated and unregulated times. Unregulated battery life claims end when there is a visible sign of light emitting in a dark room. It is not a useable light. Our claims are based on a steady, consistent output.

 

Can I turn off the red flashing led tail lights?
Yes. With the main power on, simply hold the Mode button down for 2-3 seconds. This will turn the flashing red led lights off that are built into the battery pack while leaving the main led front light on.

 

Should I remove batteries during storage?
Yes.

 

Why won’t my light turn on right away?
First, you need to remove the plastic tab that separates two of the three batteries from the battery contacts. This plastic tab is inserted so that the current is disconnected and the light will not turn on in shipping. Follow the instructions on the removable label on the battery door. Simply open the battery door, remove the plastic tab and reconnect the batteries.

 

Is the GoMotion light shipped with a protective lens cover?
Yes. There is a small oval sticker or static label that is attached to the outside of the lens to protect it during shipping. Simply pull the raised edge of the oval label and remove.
