Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
-
Q: How do I know if my solar light is charging properly?
A: Your solar light should automatically turn on at dusk after a full day of sunlight exposure. If it does not, check the positioning for adequate sunlight exposure. -
Q: Can I replace the battery with a different type?
A: It is recommended to replace the battery with a rechargeable 3.2V 14500 Lithium-ion battery for optimal performance.
IMPORTANT , RETAIN FOR FUTURE REFERENCE: READ CAREFULLY
These instructions describe the correct operating method to ensure prolonged service life. Please read and completely understand these instructions before operating your solar light.
INTRODUCTION
Using LED (Light Emitting Diode) technology and powered by the sun, this solar light is ideal for highlighting garden contours, pathways and driveways. During the day, the solar panel on top of the light charge the battery inside. At dusk, the solar light will turn on automatically using thestored energy from the sun.
POSITIONING YOUR SOLAR LIGHT
- Your solar light includes a built-in photo sensor, which detects the level of surrounding natural light and controls when the light will automatically switch on and off. Solar light should be placed away from other night time light sources including other solar lights, as this might keep the light from automatically turning on at dusk.
- Solar light must be located in an area where the solar panel will receive a maximum amount of full, direct sunlight every day. Solar light should be exposed to at least 8 hours of direct sunlight each day to fully charge the battery inside.
- Shady locations will not allow the battery to charge fully and will reduce the hours of nighttime light.
- The performance of your solar l ight is dependent on your geographical location, weather conditions and seasonal lighting availability. On cloudy days and during winter,your solar light will not receive as much direct sunlight, resulting in reduced brightness and reduced operating time.

INSTALLATION
This light can be installed in soft ground or into a hard surface
SOFT GROUND INSTALLATION
- Step 1: Locate an area where you wish to place the light and insert stake into the ground. Insert stake leaving approximately 10cm length above the ground’s surface. If the ground is hard, soften by soaking area with water first or gently tap the stake into the ground using a rubber mallet.
- Step 2: Remove the mounting base from the bottom of the assembled pole and gently place light down.
- Step 3: Attach mounting base over the centre of the installed ground stake.
- Step 4: To complete installation, re-attach the assembled solar light into the opening at the top of the mounting base.
HARD SURFACE INSTALLATION
- Step 1: Remove mounting base from the bottom of the assembled pole and gently place light down.
- Step 2: Using a pencil place marks through the 3 holes located around the edge of the mounting base.
- Step 3: Remove the base from position and drill a hole at the 3 points marked, large enough to fit the plastic anchors inside.
- NB: Before drilling holes, it is recommended that you first check the light effect at night to ensure you are happy with the position yo have chosen for installation. Be sure to also check that the location will receive direct sunlight each day to charge the battery.
- Step 4: Place plastic anchors into each hole.
- Step 5: Re-position the mounting base onto the surface, aligning the holes with the plastic anchors.
- Step 6: Using a screwdriver, insert screws through the 3 holes on the mounting base and into the plastic anchors. Tighten screws to secure the mounting base onto the surface.
- Step 7: To complete installation, re-attach the assembled solar light into the opening at the top of the mounting base.
- NB: If mounting onto a timber surface, plastic anchors are not required. Simply drill the screws directly into the surface through the holes on the mounting base
BATTERY REPLACEMENT
-
Step 1: Detach light cover from the top of the lens section by twisting it in an anti-clockwise direction and gently lifting off.
-
Step 2: Lift off the battery lid and replace old battery with new rechargeable 3.2V 14500 Lithium-ion battery.
IMPORTANT : When the battery life is exhausted, the battery must be recycled or disposed of properly.
DO NOT DISPOSE OF BATTERY IN FIRE -
Step 3: Replace battery lid, and replace light cover back onto the lens section.
TROUBLESHOOTING
If your solar light does not automatically turn on at night, it may be caused by one of the following conditions:
- ON/OFF switch is not in ON position. Slide the switch to ON position.
- Battery is not fully charged or needs replacing
- Battery may not have been installed correctly. Check to ensure that the battery is not loose and has been installed the correct way
- Solar light might be positioned in a shaded location, limiting its exposure to the sun and not allowing the battery to fully charge
- Solar light might be too close to another night time light source, including another solar light.
- Solar panel may be dirty, limiting its exposure to the sun and not allowing the battery to fully charge. Clean the top surface of the solar panel regularly with a dampened cloth or paper towel
If your solar light only lights up for a few hours in stand-by mode, the solar panel may not be receiving enough sunlight to fully charge the battery
NB : The performance of your Solar Light is dependent on your geographical location, weather conditions and seasonal lighting availability. On cloudy days and during winter, the solar charge panel will not receive as much direct sunlight resulting in reduced brightness and reduced operating time
