powerdesal Posted July 11, 2010 Share Posted July 11, 2010 Think of the I as In (service) and the O as Out(of service) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chirpy Posted July 11, 2010 Author Share Posted July 11, 2010 NO ITS NOT BINARY...But may go in the bin yet!Another odd thing it does not say what is the on or off position ,,,,yet I HAVE heard that you can damage a [8-)] torch if you charge it in the switched on position!!

Théière Posted July 11, 2010 Share Posted July 11, 2010 You can damage your head if you walk around in the dark with it in the O position [:P] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

broy Posted July 12, 2010 Share Posted July 12, 2010 If you cant figure out which position is off or on are you sure you'll be able to figure out what to plug the charger in to? A phone socket maybe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This will apply to many rechargeable items so always read the instructions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
