3. Setup and Installation
The Lepro WL5000 is designed for easy installation without complex wiring. Ensure the installation location receives ample direct sunlight for the solar panel.
Installation Steps:
- Choose Installation Location: Select a location for the light unit between 1.5-3.5 meters (5-12 feet) high on an exterior wall. The solar panel should be placed in a location that receives maximum direct sunlight throughout the day, such as a roof or an unobstructed wall. The 16ft (4.8m) connection cable allows for flexible placement.
- Mount the Light Unit: Using the provided screws and wall plugs, fix the wall bracket for the light unit to your chosen exterior wall. Securely attach the solar light unit to the bracket.
- Mount the Solar Panel: Fix the wall bracket for the solar panel to your chosen sunny location. Securely attach the solar panel to its bracket.
- Connect the Cable: Connect the cable from the solar panel to the input port on the solar light unit. Ensure a secure connection.
- Activate the Light: Locate the power switch on the back of the main light unit. Press the switch to the 'ON' position to activate the light.
- Adjust Light Heads: Adjust the three light heads vertically and horizontally to achieve the desired 270° wide lighting angle for your area.

4. Operating Instructions
The Lepro WL5000 operates automatically based on light conditions and motion detection.
Automatic Operation:
- Daytime: The solar panel converts sunlight into electricity, charging the internal battery. The light remains off during the day.
- Nighttime (Motion Activated): At night, the integrated PIR motion sensor detects movement within a 16-26ft (5-8m) distance and a 120° detection angle. Upon detection, the light automatically turns on.
- Auto-Off: If no further motion is detected for approximately 20 seconds, the light will automatically turn off to conserve energy.

Motion Sensor Performance:
The upgraded PIR motion sensor provides reliable detection. Factors such as ambient temperature, object size, and speed can influence detection range and sensitivity.

5. Maintenance
To ensure optimal performance and longevity of your Lepro WL5000 solar light, follow these simple maintenance guidelines:
- Clean Solar Panel: Periodically wipe the surface of the solar panel with a soft, damp cloth to remove dust, dirt, leaves, or snow. A clean panel ensures maximum sunlight absorption and efficient charging.
- Clear Obstructions: Ensure no trees, bushes, or other objects are blocking direct sunlight from reaching the solar panel, especially during peak sunlight hours.
- Inspect Connections: Occasionally check the connection cable between the solar panel and the light unit to ensure it is secure and free from damage.
- Weather Resistance: The light is IP65 waterproof, heat-resistant, and frost-resistant, designed to withstand various outdoor weather conditions. However, extreme conditions may temporarily affect performance.

6. Troubleshooting
If your Lepro WL5000 solar light is not functioning as expected, please refer to the following common issues and solutions:
- Light does not turn on at night:
- Ensure the power switch on the back of the light unit is in the 'ON' position.
- Verify the solar panel is receiving sufficient direct sunlight for at least 8 hours during the day. Relocate the panel if necessary.
- Check the connection cable between the solar panel and the light unit for proper connection and any damage.
- Confirm there are no external light sources (e.g., streetlights, other outdoor lights) near the motion sensor that might prevent it from activating.
- Light is dim or only stays on for a short time:
- The battery may not be fully charged. Ensure the solar panel is clean and exposed to direct sunlight for a full day.
- Consider environmental factors such as cloudy weather or shorter daylight hours, which can reduce charging efficiency.
- Motion sensor is not detecting movement:
- Ensure the motion sensor lens is clean and unobstructed.
- Verify the light unit is installed within the recommended height range (1.5-3.5m / 5-12ft).
- Test the sensor by walking across its detection path, not directly towards it.
If these steps do not resolve the issue, please contact Lepro customer support for further assistance.
