Key Features

  • Automatic Illumination: Integrated Passive Infrared (PIR) motion sensor and photocell sensor. Lights activate automatically in dark conditions when motion is detected within a 10ft/3m range and turn off after 30 seconds of no activity.
  • Convenient USB Charging: Features an 800mAh built-in rechargeable battery, allowing for over 500 charge cycles via the included USB cable. This eliminates the need for frequent battery replacement.
  • Easy Installation: The light has a magnetic back for direct attachment to iron surfaces. For non-magnetic surfaces, use the included double-sided adhesive tape and iron strip for secure mounting. No wiring or screws are required, preventing damage to surfaces.
  • Optimal Illumination: Equipped with 30 bright LEDs, providing 80 lumens of warm white light (3000K color temperature). Delivers sufficient light for visibility in dark areas without being overly harsh on the eyes.
  • Versatile Application: Compact design (approximately 19cm length x 2.95cm width x 2cm height) suitable for various indoor locations without main power outlets, including cabinets, stairs, hallways, pantries, wardrobes, shelves, and as a night light.

Setup and Installation

  1. Charge the Light: Before first use, fully charge the light using the provided USB cable. A green light indicates a full charge.
  2. Select Mounting Location: Choose a clean, dry, and flat surface where you intend to install the light. Ensure the area is free from dust and moisture.
  3. Magnetic Attachment (for iron surfaces): If the surface is iron, simply place the magnetic back of the light directly onto the surface.
  4. Adhesive Attachment (for non-magnetic surfaces):
    • Peel off the protective film from one side of the double-sided adhesive tape.
    • Attach the adhesive tape to the iron strip.
    • Peel off the protective film from the other side of the adhesive tape.
    • Firmly press the iron strip onto your desired non-magnetic surface.
    • Attach the light magnetically to the installed iron strip.

Operating Instructions

The STANBOW Motion Sensor Under Cabinet Light features three adjustable modes for operation:

  • "Auto" Mode: In this mode, the light will automatically turn on when motion is detected within 10 feet (3 meters) in dark conditions. It will automatically turn off after approximately 30 seconds if no further motion is detected. This mode is ideal for areas requiring temporary illumination, such as cabinets, hallways, or stairs.
  • "ON" Mode: In this mode, the light remains continuously on, functioning as a normal night light. This is suitable for situations where constant illumination is desired.
  • "OFF" Mode: This mode turns the light off completely. It offers a standby time of up to 5 months, conserving battery life when not in use.

To switch between modes, locate the small switch on the light unit and slide it to your desired setting.

Maintenance

  • Cleaning: Wipe the light surface with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents that may damage the finish or electronic components.
  • Charging: Recharge the battery when the light output diminishes or when it stops responding to motion. Use only the provided USB cable or a compatible 5V USB charger.
  • Battery Care: To prolong battery life, avoid fully discharging the battery frequently. If storing the light for an extended period, charge it periodically (e.g., every 3-6 months) to maintain battery health.
  • Placement: Ensure the motion sensor is not obstructed by objects, which could affect its detection capabilities.

Troubleshooting

ProblemPossible CauseSolution
Light does not turn on in "Auto" mode.
  • Insufficient battery charge.
  • Ambient light is too bright (photocell sensor prevents activation).
  • No motion detected within range.
  • Sensor obstructed.
  • Recharge the light fully.
  • Test in a darker environment.
  • Ensure motion occurs within 10ft/3m of the sensor.
  • Clear any obstructions from the sensor.
Light turns off too quickly or stays on too long.
  • Continuous motion detected (stays on).
  • Intermittent motion (turns off/on rapidly).
  • This is normal behavior; the light will stay on as long as motion is detected.
  • Ensure the light is placed in an area with consistent motion or switch to "ON" mode if continuous light is needed.
Light does not charge.
  • Faulty USB cable or power adapter.
  • Charging port is damaged.
  • Try a different USB cable and power adapter.
  • Contact customer support if the port appears damaged.
