FAQs
Can I use these on metal posts?
These units are specifically designed for 4x4, 5x5, and 6x6 vinyl or wooden posts. They may not fit standard metal post profiles.
How do I switch between warm and cool white light?
There is a physical switch located inside the unit that allows you to toggle between color temperatures during installation.
Are these lights waterproof?
Yes, they feature an IP44 rating, which makes them highly resistant to rain, snow, and general moisture.
Do I need to turn them on manually every night?
No, they feature an automatic light sensor that turns the unit on at dusk and off at dawn.
What is the lumen output?
Each light provides 15 lumens, which is ideal for accent lighting rather than bright area illumination.
Troubleshooting
The light does not turn on at night
Ensure the light is not near other light sources like streetlights, as the dusk-to-dawn sensor may detect ambient light and prevent activation.
Light stays on for only a short time
Check that the solar panel is clean and positioned to receive maximum direct sunlight throughout the day.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation is straightforward and does not require an electrician. Use the provided mounting base to secure the cap to your wooden or vinyl posts. Ensure the solar panel is free of debris to maintain charging efficiency.
To clean the fixtures, simply wipe the glass and solar panel with a damp, non-abrasive cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or pressure washers which could damage the powder-coated finish. If you plan to store the units during extreme off-season weather, keep them in a cool, dry place to extend the life of the internal batteries.
