Features

Current Regulation: Current regulation means that the S18 intelligently controls the power being drawn from your batteries, giving you consistent output while fully using every last drop of energy available. Current regulation provides dependable outputs and runtimes while eliminating needless battery waste.

Thermal Regulation: The 4Sevens Maelstrom S18 features our unique thermal regulation. This means it can take serious abuse and be exposed to harsh conditions, but it will automatically control its output to protect its own guts. That means you don’t worry about your light - you just use it.

SST-90 LED: We only use the absolute latest cutting-edge LED technology in our flashlights, and the Maelstrom S18 is no exception. It features the “SST-90″ LED, a luminous giant of efficiency and output, providing 1200 OTF lumens on high mode.

Smart Circuit for Rechargeable Batteries: Many flashlights are able to use standard single-use 3-volt CR123A batteries, but few can use the more powerful, rechargeable 3.7-volt RCR123A batteries without causing permanent internal damage. The Maelstrom S18 is one of those few - it runs flawlessly even when using six rechargeable 3.7-volt RCR123A batteries.

Reverse-Polarity Protection: The 4Sevens S18’s battery carrier provides reverse-polarity protection, so even if you accidentally put the batteries in reverse, nothing will be damaged. So even if you’re swapping batteries in the dark, you’ve peace of mind that you simply can’t hurt the S18.

Operation

Operating the Maelstrom S18 flashlight is intuitively simple. First ensure that all six batteries are installed correctly in the battery handle**. To access the battery handle, unscrew the tailcap in front of the red o-ring, where the five mode icons are engraved. The battery handle is permanently attached to the tailcap, so please remove it carefully.

Once you have installed the batteries and tightened the tailcap, press the metal button on the back until it clicks and the light will turn on. You can also press the button lightly for momentary-on. To change modes, simply rotate the back of the tailcap to align the engraved arrow with the icon of the mode you want.

** Note: Please always reload the Maelstrom S18 with brand new CR123As. Never mix-and-match CR123As with different brands or with unknown or different remaining capacities. We recommend that you use high quality 4Sevens CR123A cells in the S18. If you are using RCR123A (rechargeables), please ensure they are all the same brand/type and are all fully charged.

The S12 is the new benchmark for ultra compact, insanely bright tactical and duty flashlights. It is the smallest flashlight in the world to use the SST-90 emitter.

It features both current and thermal regulation - this means it can take serious abuse and be exposed to harsh conditions, but it will automatically control its output to protect its own guts. That means you don’t worry about your light - you just use it.

The S12 also runs off one of our own special lithium-ion rechargeable batteries. It’s called a 26650, and it packs enough energy to power the S12 at 800 lumens for an entire 90 minutes.

The S12 uses a single battery specially designed by 4Sevens called the 26650 which also requires a special 26650 Battery Charger which is also designed and manufactured by 4Sevens.

Features:

LED Emitter: Premium SST-90 LED
Type-III Hard Anodized Aircraft Aluminum
Hardened Lens with Sapphire Anti-Reflective Coating
Water resistant to IPX-8 Standards
Shock-mounted battery prevents recoil damage
Anti-rattle battery compartment design
Output and Runtime:

Low: 120 lumens (13 days)
High: 800 lumens (1.5 hrs)
Operation:

The Maelstrom S12 features a simple, two-mode interface that takes only a few seconds to master. To start, please make sure the S12 battery is inserted with the positive side (+) toward the head. Then, tighten the tailcap fully down and the S12 will turn on. Loosen the tailcap a half-turn, and the S12 will turn off.

The S12 tailcap has a pressure-style switch. When the tailcap is loosened a half-turn, simply press the button on the back to activate the light. The switching mechanism is momentary, which means when you stop pressing on the button, the S12 will turn off. To ‘lock’ the S12 on, simply tighten the tailcap fully down again.

To switch between the high and low output modes, turn the S12 off, and then turn it on again within 1 second. Anytime the S12 is turned on within 1 seconds of being turned off, it will automatically switch to the next mode. However, if you leave the S12 off for 2 seconds or longer, it will “memorize” the last mode used. See the examples below:

Example 1: ON (High mode) — OFF (1 Second) — ON (Low Mode)
Example 2: ON (High mode) — OFF (2 Seconds) — ON (High mode)

Typical of 4Seven’s design philosophy of “function over form,” the Maelstrom G5 was conceived with these basic goals:

- One-inch weapon mountable body
- The most advanced LEDs and Optics
- The brightest, farthest projecting solution in a compact, rugged package.
- A highly efficient, top-binned CREE XP-G
- Fine-tuned deep, smooth reflector
- A useful range of over 100 meters

Eight verstible modes of output are accessible by rotating the head. A completely silent 4-point switch allows switching modes without detection, ideal for tactical situations. The most commonly used modes of output placed as the first two positions (tight and immediately loosened) for Max/Strobe and High/Medium.

Generous knurling throughout the entire light ensures confident grip even in the messiest of situations. Removable grip ring, clip and crenated stainless steel strike bezel. A flat black aluminum bezel and grip ring replacement are included.

Shock-mounted battery design fixes the batteries inside to the body of the light, avoiding self-destructive battery movement. The light is ready to be weapon mounted.

Patent-pending anti-rattle design that accomodates both 2xcr123a and 1×18650 without the need of spacers or adaptors. A custom molded holster shaped for the G5 is included - designed to help retain the light in holster even when flap is open.

A tactical ‘clicky’ switch is fully exposed in the tailcap for easy access, even when wearing gloves.

This light is INCREDIBLY small and surprisingly bright for a keychain light of its size. Weighing in at just two-tenths of an ounce (0.2 oz!) and less than 1.5 inches in length this little light puts out an amazing 10 lumens up to a distance of 30 feet. Don’t let its size or price fool you, this is not a toy or a throwaway novelty keychain light!

It was originally designed in collaboration with survival equipment authority Doug Ritter. The PICO Lite is constructed of anodized, 6061 aluminum that is then textured by a sandblasting process. It features a simply yet reliable rotary bezel switch that will not accidentally turn on and is water resistant to IPX4 standard. Aggressive knurling thoughtfully placed on the bezel and body provide for easy on/off operation, even with one hand. Included with the PICO Lite is a split-ring with a mini carabineer clip to secure the light to zippers, backpacks, bungees, virtually anywhere easily accessible when you need extra light.
