RECOMMENDED INSTALL HEIGHT:
Install the light between 6.5-8.5 feet above the ground. The fixture will provide a detection distance of up to 40 feet.
LOCATION OF SOLAR PANEL:
For the best results, install your solar panel in an area where it can absorb
maximum sunlight during daytime hours. Be aware of objects such as trees or
property overhangs that may impede the panel’s ability to generate a charge.
PRE-INSTALLATION:
- Before assembly, compare package contents with the hardware list to make sure all parts are present.
- Prior to installing the lights, an initial charge is needed and should be done in the OFF position for at least 1 to 2 days in direct sunlight before use (see page 3, fig 5 for mode selections). Make sure to plug the solar panel into the lights to charge the batteries. Afterward, the included rechargeable batteries will be charged sufficiently for operation.
- When fully charged and ready to install, select a suitable location that can support the weight of the fixture.
- The solar panel comes with a 15 ft. wire. The maximum distance between the solar panel and light is 15 ft.
- The motion sensor is light-sensitive. For best performance at night, ensure there is no interfering light preventing the sensor from working correctly
- Estimated installation time: 15 Minutes
INSTALLATION:
-
Select the desired position for the security light and solar panel. The maximum distance between the security light and solar panel is 15 ft.
-
Use a drill and a 1/8″ drill bit to drill the holes on your preferred mounting surface utilizing the solar panel mounting bracket (F) screw holes as your guide. Use (2) wall anchors (D), insert into each hole, then use (2) screws (C) to fasten the mounting bracket (F) to the surface. Make sure the clip side is facing out as shown in Fig 1.
-
Connect the solar panel (B) to the solar mounting bracket (F) as 2 shown in Fig 2.
Note: Make sure the distance between the light and solar panel are within 15 feet. -
Use a drill and a 1/8″ drill bit to drill the holes on your preferred mounting surface utilizing the light mounting bracket (E) screw holes as your guide.

Repeat for the second LED light.
Before connecting the light to the mounting bracket, switch the Mode to the Auto position (see Operation Guide below).
Note: Make sure the distance between the light and solar panel are within 15 feet. -
If you are eave mounting the security light, ensure the ceiling is level and the fixture can support the weight of the light. Follow Fig 1 on page 2 to secure the bracket (E).
-
Before connecting the light to the mounting bracket, switch the Mode to the Auto position (see Operation Guide below).
Connect the light (A) to the mounting bracket (E) as shown in Fig 5. 6 Connect each solar panel wire to each LED light as shown in Fig 5.
Installation is complete. You are now ready to enjoy your new LED security light.
OPERATION GUIDE
After installation, press the mode button once to enter Auto Mode. The light

REPLACING THE BATTERY
If the battery needs to be replaced, the battery housing panel is located on
the back of each LED light. Make sure the units are in the OFF mode first.
Unscrew the battery housing panel. Remove the old battery and replace it with
a Li-ion rechargeable battery 18650 3.7V 1800mAh. Make sure the polarity is
correct. Screw the cover back on and turn the light to Auto (On) Mode.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE:
- From time to time, ensure the plug between the solar panel and lights are securely connected.
- It is advisable to adjust the angle of the solar panel to optimize the exposure to the sun during the winter months.
- The solar panel should be cleaned with a damp cotton cloth regularly. That will ensure optimal performance and battery charging. Periodically, utilize the same technique to clean the lenses of the motion lights
- Never let any abrasive material come into contact with the solar panel.
