FAQs

How long does the battery last on a full charge?

The duration of light on a full charge depends on the brightness setting used and the amount of sunlight received. Generally, it is designed to operate throughout the night, especially on lower brightness settings.

What is the IP rating and what does it mean?

The IP44 rating means the light is protected against solid objects larger than 1mm (like wires) and is protected against water splashes from any direction. This makes it suitable for outdoor use.

Can I use this light in areas with limited sunlight?

While the light is solar-powered, it requires a significant amount of direct sunlight to charge effectively. Performance will be significantly reduced in areas with limited or indirect sunlight.

How do I switch between brightness settings?

The brightness settings are typically adjusted by repeatedly pressing the push-on/off switch. Each press cycles through the available brightness levels (30lm, 130lm, 320lm) and off.

What type of LED is used?

It features an integrated 5.8W LED (SMD 3528) that produces 3000K warm white light.

What is the warranty period for this product?

Please refer to the product packaging or manufacturer's documentation for specific warranty information, as this can vary.

Troubleshooting

Light does not turn on at night

Ensure the solar panel is clean and receiving direct sunlight. Check that the unit is switched on via the push button. Verify that the area is dark enough for the light sensor to activate.

Light does not charge effectively

Clean the solar panel. Ensure the panel is not obstructed by shadows from trees or buildings during daylight hours. Move the light to a location with more direct sunlight if possible.

Motion sensor not activating

Ensure the motion detection mode is enabled via the push switch. Check for any obstructions blocking the sensor. The effective range is up to 8 meters.

Light is dim or flickers

This may indicate a low battery charge. Allow the unit to charge fully in direct sunlight for a full day. If the issue persists, the battery may need replacement (consult manufacturer).
