ABOUT YOUR SOLAR POWERED METAL AND GLASS POST CAP LIGHTS

  • Your MAXSA Solar Powered Metal and Glass Post Cap Lights convert sunlight into electricity during the day, enabling the 2 LED lights to turn on automatically at night. These Post Cap Lights are perfect for lighting post tops, deck railings and fences to provide illumination and help reduce falls and tripping. They are solar powered. The included rechargeable batteries are powered each day by the sun to allow the Post Cap Lights to illuminate your deck or fence at night.
  • Your Solar Powered Post Cap Lights can stay lit for up to 8 hours when the batteries are fully charged by 8 hours of sunlight. The included sealed rechargeable 3.2V 200 mAh AA Lithium-ion batteries should last for at least 2 years before they need to be replaced.

INCLUDED PARTS

CHOOSING A LOCATION

  • Your MAXSA Solar Powered Metal and Glass Post Cap Lights are designed for either 4×4-inch wood or vinyl fence and deck posts; The included adapter can be used to mount them on 4×4-inch vinyl posts. The lights can also sit on a deck railing. Your Solar Powered Post Cap Lights come complete with built-in solar panels and rechargeable batteries. For optimum sun exposure and longer light output, place the Solar Post Cap Lights where they receive 6-8 hours of direct sunlight per day. Placing the lights in a shaded location keeps the batteries from charging fully and reduces the number of hours the lights operate each evening.
  • Each Solar Powered Post Cap Light is equipped with a light-sensitive trigger to automatically turn the light on at dusk.

•     Check and make sure the battery tab (under the cap) is

pulled out and battery is in correct polarity and snugly.
