GAMA SONIC’S BULB TECHNOLOGY
Gama Sonic’s patented Bulb technology gives your solar lamp the look and feel of a traditional incandescent lamp. This helps to distribute light further than traditional solar lamps.
Solar Lamp Location
For optimum light duration throughout the night, it is very important to
mount your solar lamp in a spot where it will receive the maximum amount of
direct sunlight throughout the day.
What’s in the Box
For best results, the solar light must be charged in the “ON” position (High or Low) for at least 2 days of full direct sunlight.

Maintenance
Clean the solar panels regularly with a damp towel to guarantee optimum performance. Do not use any type of solvent for cleaning and be careful not to put too much pressure on the solar panels while cleaning.
Troubleshooting
If your solar light does not come on as expected despite observance of all the instructions, please try the following steps:
- Make sure that the solar lamp is not being affected by any other light source.
- Ensure the solar lamp is not positioned in the shade during the day.
- Check that the batteries are installed correctly.
NOTE: The performance of the solar lamp will vary with the time of year. It will last longer when it has had a full day in the sun rather than a day in overcast weather.
WINTERTIME TIPS: For optimal performance, be sure to remove any snow or debris accumulation from solar panel(s). A solar panel free of debris will charge the batteries much more efficiently.
WARNING: Please keep out of reach of children. Do not dispose of the Li- Ion battery in the regular trash, municipal waste stream or by fire as batteries may leak or explode. Do not open, short circuit, or mutilate batteries as injury may occur. Preserve our environment by recycling Li-Ion batteries or disposing of them in accordance with local, State and federal regulations. Do not mix old and new batteries.
