IMPORTANT NOTES
- Please ensure you place your light in a location where it can achieve a minimum of 6HRS DIRECT SUNLIGHT exposure.
- Be aware that on overcast/cloudy days, the solar panel will still charge. However, not as efficiently as a sunny day, so the battery may not reach full capacity. Therefore, your light may turn off earlier than specified.
- It’s best not to install these lights underneath a street light, porch light etc. because this may stop the automatic day-night sensor triggering and result in your lights not turning on.
