Note: NiMH stands for Nickel-Metal Hydride, the materials used in our battery. Unlike NiCad batteries, NiMH batteries do not use heavy metals that may have toxic effects. In addition, they can store up to 50% more power than NiCad batteries and do not suffer from memory effects. That is why our lights stay on longer!

Operating Instructions for the Original 4” x 8” Solar Brick Landscape Light V1.0

Each box contains one (1) 4” x 8” solar brick landscape light. The light is comprised of a lens, solar module, and a base. The solar light module contains 12 ultrabright LEDs and three solar panels on the top. On the underside of the solar light module is the battery compartment and the light switch. When you receive your Solar Brick Landscape Light, it comes with the light switched in the “ON” position. (You can turn the switch off by removing the lens cover and pressing the Power Switch once until you hear a “click”.

Your Solar Brick Landscape Light can be installed permanently in concrete, imbedded within your brick pavers, lining the driveway, sidewalk, patio, pool deck or placed wherever decorative landscape lighting is desired. Make sure to install them where they have full access to the sun most of the day. Your Solar Brick Landscape Light should illuminate for up to 6+ hours in the spring and summer months and somewhat less in the fall and winter. Your Solar Brick Landscape Light will automatically turn on at night when the sun goes down and shut off when the sun comes up or when the battery as been fully discharged. During the daylight hours, the solar panels convert the sun’s energy into electricity and charges the 1.2 Volt AAA 1,000 mAh NIMH battery. Your rechargeable NI-MH AAA battery should last for up to 5 years. When it comes time to replace the battery, simply come back to www.ShopTJB.com and purchase a replacement 1,000 mAh NI-MH battery or upgrade to a 2,500 mAh Premium NI-MH battery and get even longer light output each night.

NOTE: Please keep in mind that these lights are shipped with the light switch in the off position to preserve the rechargeable NI-MH AAbattery. Kindly, remove the lens andsolar light module to access the light switch on the underside of themodule. Click the switch once to turnthe light on. (Complete instructions are contained inside the box.)

It is important that when you reassemble the light to ensure the gasketis smoothed down completely to be flush with the raised lip on the inside ofthe light base. Tighten the screws firmly to make certainthat the solar light is sealed properly. Otherwise, water can seep into the solar light and can damage theelectronic components

How To Replace the Battery on Original V1.0

Remove the lens cover by unscrewing the ten screws with the included allen wrench. Remove the lense and rubber gasket and set them aside. Then grasp the solar light module by the two tabs protruding from the sides and pull up to remove the unit. Turn the solar light module upside down and unscrew the six small screws covering the battery compartment. Then replace the battery with a new AA NI-MH. Reverse the procedure to seal everything back up. Tighten the screws firmly; be sure not to over tighten and strip the screws. You can use the same procedure to replace the solar light module if you desire to change the LED light color or if the module becomes inoperable after many years of use.

HOW DOES IT WORK?

If you have a yard and have ever thought about lighting it at night, then you have probably heard about solar yard lights. As long as a location gets direct sunlight, you can put a light there and have light at night for several hrs.

These lights are extremely interesting because they are almost like mini-satellites. They generate and store their own power during the day and then release it at night. This is just like a satellite that stores solar energy while it is on the sunny side of the planet and then uses that energy when it's on the dark side.

A solar yard light uses standard solar cells in a very straightforward application. A single solar cell produces a maximum of 0.45 volts and a varying amount of current depending on the size of the cell and the amount of light striking the surface. In a typical yard light, therefore, you need 6 cells wired in series. In this yard light, the six cells will produce 2.5 volts and a maximum of about 350 milliamps in full, bright sunlight.

The solar cells are wired directly to the battery through a diode (which prevents the battery's current from flowing back through the solar cell at night). The battery is a high powered AA NI-MH battery. A battery like this produces about 1.2 volts and can store a maximum of approximately 1000 milliamp-hours. During the day, the battery charges, reaching maximum charge except on shorter winter days or days when there is heavy overcast.

At night, the solar cells stop producing power. The photo resistor turns on the LED. The controller board accepts power from the solar cell and battery, as well as input from the photo resistor. It has a three-transistor circuit that turns on the LED when the photo resistor indicates darkness.

LEDs draw about 45 milliamps with the battery producing about 1.23 volts (0.055 watts). It produces about half of the light that a candle would. The 1,000 mAh NI-MH battery, when fully charged, can operate the LED for about 6-8 hrs on this 4" x 8" light. The Premium 2,500 mAh will operate the LEDs up to 12-14 hrs on a full charge.

Half of a candle's light is not very much, and if you have ever purchased one of these yard lights you know that it really is not enough to provide illumination. You use them more for marking a trail or pathway -- they are bright enough to see, but not really bright enough to illuminate the ground to any great degree. They help define borders, pathways, & stairways. Use them in walkways, patios, driveways, pool deck, stairways & along garden paths. Due to the lower output, bugs are not as attracted to them as they are to other outdoor lighting.

InstallationIn Concrete/Stamped Concrete

I willtry to explain some of the techniques that we have used for our installation ofour Solar Brick Paver Lights into new concrete surfaces.

Always test your lights before you set them into concrete. Wrap the light fixture in plastic wrap (IE: Saran Wrap, Clear Wrap, Stretch-Tight, etc.). This prevents the concrete from getting on the fixture and from staining it.

Insert the wrapped fixture into the wet concrete by moving it in back and forth. This will displace the concrete and allow the fixture to sink into the wet concrete. Continue the motion until the top of the lens is even with the top of the concrete pour. The concrete will form around the ridges in the base of the fixture holding the fixture tight in place.
After the concrete has dried, you can cut away most of the exposed plastic wrap. Any remaining plastic wrap can be quickly melted away with any hand-held heat source (IE: Plumber's Torch, Heat Gun, Hair Drier, etc.).

Well,there are my (3) basic tips that have worked well for our installation crews. If you are doing stamped concrete, a littleextra care is needed when pressing down the form molds so as not to press thelight fixture too deep into the concrete.

GoodLuck with your project and don't forget to send me photos that I can share withothers! (Info@TJB-INC.com)

The solar light module contains (48) adjustable LED's and (18) solar panels on the top for recharging..

The Solar Brick Landscape Light can be installed permanently in concrete, imbedded within your brick pavers, lining the driveway, sidewalk, patio, pool deck or placed wherever decorative landscape lighting is desired. Make sure to install them where they have full access to the sun most of the day. The Solar Brick Landscape Light should illuminate for up to 10+ hours in the spring and summer months and somewhat less in the fall and winter. Your Solar Brick Landscape Light will automatically turn on at night when the sun goes down and shut off when the sun comes up or when the battery as been fully discharged. During the daylight hours, the solar panels convert the sun’s energy into electricity and charges the 3.2 Volt 1,800 mAh Rechargable Metal Lithium battery. The rechargable metal lithium battery should last for up to 10 years or 4000 recharges.

NOTE: It is important that when you reassemble the light to ensure the gasketis smoothed down completely to be flush with the raised lip on the inside ofthe light base. Tighten the screws firmly to make certainthat the solar light is sealed properly DO NOT OVER TIGHTEN. (It will warp the lens and water can seep into the solar light and can damage theelectronic components).

HOW DOES ITWORK?

If you have a yard and have ever thought about lighting itat night, then you have probably heard about solar yard lights. As long as a location gets direct sunlight,you can put a light there and have light at night for several hrs.

These lights are extremely interesting because they arealmost like mini satellites. They generate and store their own power during theday and then release it at night.

A solar yard light uses standard solar cells in a very straightforwardapplication. A single solar cell produces a maximum of 0.5 volts and a varyingamount of current depending on the size of the cell and the amount of lightstriking the surface in full,bright sunlight.

The solar cells are wired directly to the battery through adiode (which prevents the battery's current from flowing back through the solarcell at night). our battery is a high-powered rechargeable metal lithium battery. A battery likethis produces about 2.5 volts and can store a maximum of approximately 1800milliamp-hours. During the day, the battery charges, reaching maximum chargeexcept on shorter winter days or days when there is heavy overcast.

At night, the solar cells stop producing power. The photoresistor turns on the LED. Thecontroller board accepts power from the solar cell and battery, as well asinput from the photo resistor. It has a three-transistor photcell circuit that turns onthe LED when the photo resistor indicates darkness.

LEDs draw about 45 milliamps with the battery producingabout 1.23 volts (0.055 watts). It produces about half of the light that acandle would. The Rechargeable metal lithium battery, when fully charged, can operate the LED forabout up to 10 hrs. on this 4" x 8" light. Half of a candle's light isnot very much, and if you have ever purchased one of these yard lights you knowthat it really is not enough to provide illumination. You use them more formarking a trail or pathway -- they are bright enough to see, but not reallybright enough to illuminate the ground to any great degree. They help defineborders, pathways, & stairways. Usethem in walkways, patios, driveways, pool deck, stairways & along gardenpaths. Due to the lower output, bugs arenot as attracted to them as they are to other outdoor lighting.

In late Spring, Summer and early Autumn the Solar Paverlights will fully charge on most days giving them enough charge to light for upto 12 hours. In winter the Solar Paver lights will charge up enough to lightfor up to 6 hours on all but the most unfavorable of winter weather days unlesscovered by snow.

How ToReplace the Battery/Solar Module?

Remove the lens cover by unscrewing the ten screws with an Allen wrench. Remove the lens and rubber gasket and set them aside. Then use a flat head screwdriver to remove the solar module. (It will problely break but you are replacing it.) Then replace the solar module with a new one. Reverse the procedure toseal everything back up. Apply a thin bead of silicone between the lens and the rubber gasket to help seal out water. Tighten the screws firmly; be sure not to overtighten and strip the screws.

How waterresistant are they?

Water resistance is rated by the IP (InternationalProtection) system which consists of the letters IP followed by two digits. Thefirst digit after IP ranks a products protection against solid objects. Thesecond digit after the IP rates a products ability to protect against liquids.

The Solar Paver lights are IP67 rated making it our most water-resistantlight. IP67 means the Solar Paver lights are protected against dust - Noingress of dust; complete protection against contact and ingress of water in harmfulquantity shall not be possible when the enclosure is immersed in water underdefined conditions of pressure and time (up to 3' / 1 m of submersion). They are not rated for long term submersion. NOTE: Over tightening of the top screws cancause warping of the lens causing water to seep into the fixture and can damagethe electronic components which is not covered by warranty.

*InstallationTip*

In areas that experience freeze thaw cycles during thewinter months, we have found a neat way to secure the lights into yourinstallation. Before installing theSolar Paver Light into your pavers, spray a little expanding foam (Great Stuff,Black Waterfall Foam, Etc.) into the space where the fixture will beinstalled. Then put the fixture into thespace. The expanding foam will fill anyvoid spaces and will adhere the fixture to all adjoining pavers. You must put some weight on top of thefixture as the expanding foam dries so that the foam does not push the fixtureout of the space. Once the foam hasdried, remove the weight. If any foamcame up between the fixture and adjoining pavers, allow the foam to dry and cutoff any extra with a knife. (Next time use less foam!).

Why do the lightsnot stay on the same amount of time?

The amount of time a solar light will stay lit is based uponseveral different factors. First andmost important is the amount and angle of sunlight the solar panels receive andcan send the power to the rechargeable battery. Late Spring & Early Summertimesun is strongest because it is straight up in the sky. Fall, spring, & winter, the sun is lowerin the horizon and does not provide as much power to the solar panels so theLEDs will not stay on as long.

If you have a light that is not staying on as long as theother lights, a simple test is to open up the fixture and remove the solarlight module. Then place the module in adirect sunlight area that is lit for most of the day. Observe the light that night. Do the LED’s stay lighted longer than before? If yes, lack of sunlight is the problem. If no, then there may be an issue with thebattery.

Over-hanging shruband tree branches, long grass, dirt/debris on the lens or structures thatprovide shade for the area also block the amount of sun to power the solarpanels resulting in less output to the battery. If leaves or dirt accumulate on the lenses, this will cut back on thepower available to recharge the battery. Finally, rechargeable batteries have a certain amount of charge/dischargecycles before they no long will hold a charge. Ni-Cad batteries are the least expensive and have 300-500 cycles beforeneeding replacement. Rechargable metal lithium batteries(used by Solar Brick Paver Lights) cost more but can last 100 times aslong as Ni-Cad rechargeable batteries.

Why do thelights Flicker?

LED lights will flicker if they are just about to runout of power or if the photocell is receiving extra light that causes thephotocell to cycle on-off-on-off-on-etc. This extra light can come from outdoorlights on houses or buildings, very bright LED streetlights, and securitylighting. If this flickering happens ona regular basis around the same time, then the problem is most likelyenvironmental.

As they are solar powered. Whenthe environment brightness is getting at the critical point of charging voltageand discharging voltage, environment brightness is not stable and will causevoltage on solar panel not stable, may lead to repeatedly charging and discharging,thus LED’s flickering or repeatedly on and off. Because the solar panel isvery sensitive to surrounding brightness. When the surrounding area is alldark or all bright that passed the charging and discharging critical point,solar brick light will work well again. That is normal in solar products.

To check the battery, follow instructions in the abovesection. If battery is OK, then check tosee if there is other ambient light that might be tripping the photocell. You can do this by removing the solar module(see above) and moving it to a different location where there is more darknessat nighttime (but sunny during the day). Check to see if the lights flicker ina different area. If yes, and thebattery has checked out as ok, then you may have a module problem and require areplacement.

Why is therewater under the lens?

Because the fixture properly sealed, sometimes there will becondensation under the lens if the weather is conducive to this. This is normal and will not affect the solarmodule. When the LED’s are on, theygenerate a little heat that will dry up the condensate water.

When the outside air temperatures become lower than the airtemperatures in the fixture, condensate will form. Nothing can be done about this. It is normal and will not damage thefixture. The condensate will eventuallydisappear as the two different temperature regulate. It is just like if you park your closed caroutside overnight. Some mornings youwill have dew on the windows and some mornings you will not. If you leave the car alone, the dewdisappears throughout the day. Same withthe Solar Brick Lights.

The main issue we have had with the lights is installers whoovertighten the (6) hex screws and warp the lens. This allows water to get into the lightfixture and eventually into the electronics. On Version 2.0, we removed the internal switch and added a silicone sealant between the lens and the rubber gasket.

There are videos on our site and written instructions thatinform the end user about over tightening. This voids the warranty, butreplacement modules are available at www.SolarBrickLight.com.

Basically, just snug the lens screws. Do not crank them super tight or the lenswill warp allowing water to get inside of the black base. The top (6) Stainless Screws have been pre-tightened at the factory as well as a layer of silicone between the lens and the rubber gasket.

If necessary, you can drill hole(s) in the bottom of thebase to allow water to drain out of the base. This works best in applications where there is a bedding course of sandbetween the top of the stone base and the bottom of the pavers. Do not make these holes if the fixture is inan area where water puddles. Holes in this situation will allow water to enterup from the bottom and destroy the electronic module.

How do I geta screw out of the lens that is too tight/stripped?

If you run into a screw that is in too tight or has gottenstripped and you cannot remove it, follow these instructions. Use a rubber bandthat is wider than the hex head opening of the screw top. Lay the rubber banddirectly over where the Allen wrench goes into the top. Apply a little down pressure and turn theAllen wrench counterclockwise. Therubber band will fill the extra space allowing the Allen wrench to grab thescrew and let you unscrew the screw. Thescrews are M5 x 16 mil Socket Cap (Allen Head) Stainless Steel Socket CapScrew. Available at local hardwarestores or from www.SolarBrickLight.com

How do Ifill sand around the fixture?

Most installations, the customer just places the light anddoes not sand. Remember these are sold all over North America. Usually it is only paver installers that wantto put polymeric sand around the light fixture. We tell these installers to use an expanding foam (IE: Great Stuff, orblack waterfall foam) that is available at any local hardware store. Spray a small bead along both sides and thenplace the fixture down into the foam. Hold the fixture in place (otherwise it will rise up with the foam) fora minute or two allowing for the foam to expand and fill the voids between thefins. Once dry, polymeric sand can beadded to fill any remaining gap. Byusing the foam method, you eliminate the fixture from frost heaving, floatingin heavy rains, & deter theft.

NOTE: If too much foam is sprayed into the hole and oozes upbetween the fixture and the surrounding pavers, do not panic! Wait until the foam dries then you can easilybreak it off flush or just below flush level with the fixture.

How do I install the light if my pavers are not 4" x 8"?

Not a problem! Just use a concrete saw to cut out a 4" x 8" space in your installation. Sometimes this can be an "L" shape out of a 6" x 9" paver, or 4" x 4" square in (2) adjoining pavers. See the customer supplied photos below to see how others have made this work in their installations.

We designed these lights to be able to be used in a wide array of applications from interlocking pavers around walkways, patios, & driveways; Clay bricks; Poured concrete; Bluestone; Gravel, & Turf installations. You just have to be a little creative sometimes in figuring out a solution that will work.

If you have a unique installation that you would like to share, please snd us some photos and we will post it for others to be inspired!

There are videos on our website andwritten instructions in each new light box that inform the end user about overtightening. This voids the warranty, but solar module replacements areavailable at www.SolarBrickLight.comif ever needed.

Watch the video on the website onhow to install the lens cover correctly or contact us directly at info@TJB-INC.com and we can explain how todo it. Basically, just snug the lensscrews. Do not crank them super tight orthe lens will warp allowing water to get inside of theblack base.

Solar Cynergy Solar LED Paver Light – RSC900 4" x 8" Rectangle Solar LED - White

Your power bill for this product will be $0!

These LED solar pavers from Solar Cynergy embody the very best of 3 of the hottest technologies there are:
• Solar
• LED lighting, and
• Ultra-capacitors to store the sun's power

NOTE: These LED's are the more expensive flat panel LED's (not the cheap round ones that show up as a point of light) which provide a nice even light without the "hot spots" that are common with round LED's.

They're so easy to use. No cords. No instructions. Completely self-contained. Just put them out in the sun to charge and they just work. They last a long time. We don't know how long they last (maybe 25 years,) but it's a long time, because they don't use batteries that wear out. They use Ultra-Capacitors to store power.

• Light time: typically about 8 hours
• Light requirement: exposure to sun—cloudy days are fine, but don't put them in shady spots.
• For high latitude locations, we recommend the square or rectangular ones because they have 2 and 4 solar cells, respectively, versus the round one, which has one.
• Rugged. You can drive over them with a big truck.
• Waterproof, ice-proof polycarbonate housing won't ever rust.
• Temperature range: anything found in nature.
• 10 year manufacturer warranty.
• No minimum quantity-buy as many as you like.

Product Applications

Great for LED accent lighting:
• Around pools decks
• Embedded in driveways
• Embedded in sidewalks and other pathways
• On patios or in concrete installatiions

Same size as most interlocking pavers 2 3/8" (60 mil). Can also be set in gravel, stonework, soil or deckwork. These are the only LED Paver lights that can be put into concrete applications because there is never any battery to change! (see instructions below)

This is a very nice, high-end LED accent lighting product. The quality is top of the line. If you're looking for something really distinctive to highlight your landscape, this is far superior to the other LED outdoor pavers we've tested and seen. For the longest lasting LED Paver Light, stay away from other battery-storage products. Batteries wear out. Even the best Lithium polymer batteries can't deliver after just a year. 365 charge/discharge cycles is more than they can bear. The Ultra-Capacitor used in these pavers don't ever get tired, like batteries, because charging and discharging a capacitor isn't a chemical reaction. It can go on forever with no care or maintenance from you.

Use in outdoor or indoor locations that receive sun much of the time. The small round ones are not recommended for high latitude areas, especially in partially shady areas. Use the squares or rectangles instead because the solar panels are larger and can provide a more thorough charge of the Ultra-Capacitor.

The unit will withstand submersion, but we do not recommend using them submerged in ponds or fountains because the water will reduce the light available to charge the unit. Also, the paver will NOT get hot, so it cannot burn off any algae growth that may occur if chlorine is not kept above around 1 part per million.

Warranty Policy

Solar Cynergy Solar LED lighting solutions are covered by a 10 year manufacturer's warranty against defects on workmanship or materials used. The warranty service is limited to the replacement Solar Cynergy lights that become defective under normal usage, as determined by Solar Cynergy. This warranty does not cover Solar Cynergy lights that have been abused, improperly used or disassembled. Except as stated above, no other express warranty applies. Any liability for indirect, incidental or consequential damages arising from the failure of the Solar Cynergy light is excluded.

Instructions for Concrete Installation

When installing these lights into a poured concrete application, pre-wrap the top of light unit in a clear plastic kitchen wrap to prevent the concrete from adhering to the surface. When the concrete pour is wet, float the light fixture into the the concrete so the top of the lens is at the top of the pour. Because these lights can float, make sure to check the depth as the concrete dries making any necessary adjustments during this period. Once the concrete has dried/hardened, remove the exposed plastic wrap from the top of the lens. And left over wrap along the very edges by the concrete can be melted with a heat gun or similar device. Now you will have a perfect load-bearing installation.

Questions

How much sunshine is required to charge the Circular Solar LED Lights?
A: The Solar LEDs only need about 12,000 lux to charge and while the more sunlight they accumulate the better, they will still be charging during cloudy, or hazy conditions unlike other solar paver lights.
For reference: Direct Sunlight = 100,000 lux; Cloudy Day = 30,000 - 70,000 lux; Extremely Cloudy = 10,000 - 30,000 lux; Terrible Rainstorm Dark = 7,000 - 10,000 lux.
How bright are the lights?

A: Lumen output is approx 6.85 lumens and is comparable to your traditional low voltage accent/paver lighting.

Solar Cynergy Solar LED Paver Light – RSC900 4" x 8" Rectangle Solar LED- Green

Your power bill for this product will be $0!

These LED solar pavers from Solar Cynergy embody the very best of 3 of the hottest technologies there are:
• Solar
• LED lighting, and
• Ultra-capacitors to store the sun's power

NOTE: These LED's are the more expensive flat panel LED's (not the cheap round ones that show up as a point of light) which provide a nice even light without the "hot spots" that are common with round LED's.

They're so easy to use. No cords. No instructions. Completely self-contained. Just put them out in the sun to charge and they just work. They last a long time. We don't know how long they last (maybe 25 years,) but it's a long time, because they don't use batteries that wear out. They use Ultra-Capacitors to store power.

• Light time: typically about 8 hours
• Light requirement: exposure to sun—cloudy days are fine, but don't put them in shady spots.
• For high latitude locations, we recommend the square or rectangular ones because they have 2 and 4 solar cells, respectively, versus the round one, which has one.
• Rugged. You can drive over them with a big truck.
• Waterproof, ice-proof polycarbonate housing won't ever rust.
• Temperature range: anything found in nature.
• 10 year manufacturer warranty.
• No minimum quantity-buy as many as you like.

Product Applications

Great for LED accent lighting:
• Around pools decks
• Embedded in driveways
• Embedded in sidewalks and other pathways
• On patios or in concrete installatiions

Same size as most interlocking pavers 2 3/8" (60 mil). Can also be set in gravel, stonework, soil or deckwork. These are the only LED Paver lights that can be put into concrete applications because there is never any battery to change! (see instructions below)

This is a very nice, high-end LED accent lighting product. The quality is top of the line. If you're looking for something really distinctive to highlight your landscape, this is far superior to the other LED outdoor pavers we've tested and seen. For the longest lasting LED Paver Light, stay away from other battery-storage products. Batteries wear out. Even the best Lithium polymer batteries can't deliver after just a year. 365 charge/discharge cycles is more than they can bear. The Ultra-Capacitor used in these pavers don't ever get tired, like batteries, because charging and discharging a capacitor isn't a chemical reaction. It can go on forever with no care or maintenance from you.

Use in outdoor or indoor locations that receive sun much of the time. The small round ones are not recommended for high latitude areas, especially in partially shady areas. Use the squares or rectangles instead because the solar panels are larger and can provide a more thorough charge of the Ultra-Capacitor.

The unit will withstand submersion, but we do not recommend using them submerged in ponds or fountains because the water will reduce the light available to charge the unit. Also, the paver will NOT get hot, so it cannot burn off any algae growth that may occur if chlorine is not kept above around 1 part per million.

Frequently Asked Questions

How bright is the solar post cap light?

The solar post cap light provides an ambient, non-task-oriented light.

Where can I purchase replacement LED light bulbs?

The LED bulbs are part of the whole solar cell component and are not designed to be replaced. The LED bulbs have an average life of 10 years, with a normal usage of 6-8 hours per day.

What kind of replacement batteries should I buy for the solar post cap light?

If the rechargeable batteries provided will no longer recharge, they can be replaced with any AA rechargeable batteries. The life depends on the quality of the batteries purchased.

How long will the rechargeable batteries provided with the solar post cap last?

The rechargeable batteries should last approximately one year.

Can I use regular, non-rechargeable batteries in the solar post cap light?

No, the solar post cap light is designed to be used with rechargeable batteries. If regular batteries are used in the sun, they will destroy the solar collector.

How long is the life of the LED light bulbs?

With a normal usage of 6-8 hours per day, the LED bulbs should last an average of 10 years.

INSTALLATION & TROUBLE SHOOTING INSTRUCTIONS

Remove the metal top by pressing inward on the side of the clear lens with holes, grasping the edge of the metal top and lifting it off.
• Remove the plastic tab in the battery compartment to allow for terminal connection.
• Turn the on/off switch to the OFF position to fully charge the battery. Your solar post cap light will need 24-48 hours of sunlight to fully charge.
• Replace the metal top by snapping it back onto the clear lens. (Be sure that the holes in the lens line up with the stubs on the metal top.)
• Place your solar post cap light in direct sunlight for 24-48 hours with the switch in the OFF position to fully charge.
• Once your solar post cap is fully charged, turn the switch to the ON position.

Your solar post cap light is now ready to be installed on your post. To attach to the post, apply an exterior-grade construction adhesive to the inside edge of the molding at the bottom of the light and place it firmly onto the post.

Once the batteries are fully charged, you can leave the switch in the ON position. The solar collector will charge the batteries during the daylight hours and power the light during darkness. Your solar post cap light will stay lit for an average of 6 to 8 hours during the night and turn off during the day, allowing the solar collector to re-charge the batteries.

If your solar post cap light becomes dim or does not light, simply turn the switch to the OFF position for 48 hours and allow the solar collector to fully re-charge the batteries.

If your solar post cap does not light or stops working, try these steps:

1. Remove the metal top by pressing in on the side of the plastic lens.

2. Turn the metal top upside-down and place it on a table so that the solar collector is covered (not exposed to the light). A light sensor inside will prevent it from lighting during the day.

3. Make sure the protective plastic tab between the batteries and the terminals has been removed.

4. Make sure the batteries are making contact with the terminals.

5. Make sure the on/off switch is in the ON position.

6. If your solar post cap light still does not light, place it in direct sunlight with the switch in the OFF position for 48 hours to fully recharge the batteries.

7. If your solar post caps light still does not light, replace the batteries with AA rechargable batteries
