MAXSA 47335 Solar Powered Ninja Stars LED Deck Accent Lighting
IMPORTANT: PLEASE READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USE.
ABOUT THE NINJA STAR™ SOLAR DECK ACCENT LIGHT
Using a monocrystalline solar panel, the MAXSA Ninja Star™ converts sunlight
into electricity during the day, enabling four LED lights to turn on
automatically at night. The light is perfect for deck lighting and
illuminating steps and walkways. When the battery is fully charged, the Ninja
Star™ stays on for up to 12 hours.
INCLUDED PARTS
Your Ninja Star™ Solar Deck Accent Light Pack comes with 4 Ninja Star™ Lights and 8 screws.
The Ninja Star™ is equipped with a power button and a light-sensitive trigger which automatically turns the light on at dusk. The power button is the rubber square located on the bottom of the light. Click the power button once to turn the light on. Once the light is on, it will automatically activate when the surrounding environment becomes dark enough. The power button only needs to be pushed once. After you click the button, test the light by covering the solar panel with your hand. If the light is on, it will activate when you cover the solar panel. If the light does not activate, try clicking the power button again and covering the solar panel. If the light still does not activate, set the light in direct sunlight for a day to charge and test again. The light only illuminates if the power button is pressed on and the light is in a dark environment. If you are unsure if the power button is set to “On”, cover the solar panel with your hand, take the light to a dark area, or wait until the evening to see if the light activates.
CHOOSING A LOCATION
For optimum sun exposure and long nightly light output, place the light where
it can receive at least 6 hours of daily direct sunlight. A shaded location
will not allow the battery to charge fully and may prevent it from charging at
all. This will reduce the number of hours the light will operate. Cloudy or
rainy days may also impact total nightly runtime.
For best performance, ensure that the light is not near nighttime light
sources such as porch and street lighting.
HOW TO INSTALL
The easiest, fastest way to install a Ninja Star™ is to place it on any flat surface, no mounting required!If you wish to mount the light–either vertically or horizontally– to a deck rail, post, or step, here’s how:
- Hold the light in the place where you want to mount it.
- Use a pencil to mark the center of the mounting holes.
- Click the power button “on”. Then check to see if the light turns on when you cover the solar panel with your hand. Leave the light on before mounting
- Use a Phillips-head screwdriver to install the screws through the mounting holes or drill pilot holes where you made the marks and then install the screws.
MAINTENANCE
The LEDs last up to 30,000 hours. To keep your light working properly, clean the solar panel with a dry cloth or with warm, soapy water. A dirty solar panel may not fully charge the battery which can shorten battery life and cause the light to malfunction.
CHANGING THE BATTERY
When the charging ability of the AAA NiMH battery decreases, replace it with a new rechargeable AAA NiMH battery.
- Unscrew the four (4) outer screws on the bottom of the Ninja Star™ to remove the outer metal cover.
- Unscrew the four (4) inner screws to remove the clear plastic lens cover.
- Lift the clear plastic lens cover away from the housing to access the battery. Be careful not to damage any of the wires.
- Replace the battery.
- Once the battery is replaced, replace the clear plastic lens cover and outer metal cover and secure by replacing the screws removed in steps 1 and 2.
