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 panel in a spot where it will  receive the maximum amount of direct sunlight throughout the day

Solar Panel Installation

  Light Installation (repeat for second lamp if installing the double light version)

  NOTE: If using the double light version, make sure the second light is close enough to the first light to use the connecting cord (D).

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:

1. Make sure that the solar lamp is not being affected by any other light source.
2. Ensure the solar lamp is not positioned in the shade during the day.
3. 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.
