5. Setup and Installation
Before First Use:
- Locate the switch on the light. Turn the switch to the 'ON' position.
- Place the solar deck light under direct sunlight for at least 6 hours to ensure the battery is fully charged. For optimal charging, install on a sunny south-facing side.
- After charging, cover the solar panel or place the light in a dark area to verify that it illuminates automatically.
Installation Steps:
- Step 1: Prepare the Surface
Clean and thoroughly dry the desired installation surface. - Step 2: Apply Adhesive
Stick the provided adhesive firmly onto the base of the solar deck light. - Step 3: Mount the Light
- For Smooth Ground: Simply press the light with the adhesive onto the clean, dry surface.
- For Rough Ground: The included adhesive may not be sufficient. You may need to assist with 10ml/10g strong adhesive glue (not included due to logistics policies; please purchase separately if needed).
6. Operation
Once installed and charged, the Unibrother Solar Deck Light operates automatically:
- Automatic ON/OFF: The light features a built-in light sensor. It will automatically turn on at dusk when it gets dark and turn off at dawn when it gets bright.
- Charging: During the day, the solar panel converts sunlight into electricity and stores it in the internal battery.
- Illumination: A full charge can provide up to 16 hours of continuous lighting.
7. Maintenance
- Cleaning: Periodically wipe the solar panel with a soft, damp cloth to remove dust, dirt, or debris. This ensures optimal charging efficiency.
- Winter Performance: In winter, due to weaker sunlight, the lighting time may be shorter (around 10 hours). Ensure the solar panel is clear of snow or ice.
- Battery: The built-in lithium battery is designed for long-term use. Do not attempt to replace it.
8. Troubleshooting
Light does not turn on at night:
- Ensure the switch is in the 'ON' position.
- Verify the solar panel is receiving at least 6 hours of direct sunlight daily. Relocate if necessary.
- Check for any obstructions (e.g., leaves, dirt) on the solar panel and clean it.
- Ensure there are no other strong light sources nearby that might trigger the light sensor to keep the light off.
Light duration is shorter than expected:
- Charging time may be insufficient due to cloudy weather or partial shading.
- During winter months, solar intensity is lower, which naturally reduces lighting duration.
- Ensure the solar panel is clean.
9. User Tips
- Clarification on LEDs: Please note that this product is a single solar light unit equipped with 12 LEDs, not a pack of 12 individual lights.
- Optimal Placement: For best performance, always install the solar deck lights in a location that receives maximum direct sunlight throughout the day.
- Adhesive for Rough Surfaces: If installing on rough or uneven surfaces, consider purchasing a stronger, weather-resistant adhesive separately to ensure secure mounting.
