Operating Instructions

The Dynaming Solar Post Cap Lights are designed for automatic operation:

• Charging: Place the lights in an area that receives full and direct sunlight for 6-8 hours daily. The solar panel on top of the unit will convert sunlight into electricity to charge the internal 1000MAH NI-MH AA rechargeable battery.

• Automatic On/Off: Once fully charged and the switch is in the 'ON' position, the lights will automatically turn on at dusk and turn off at dawn. They provide approximately 8 hours of illumination on a full charge.

• Optimal Placement: Position the lights to receive maximum direct sunlight for 6-8 hours daily. Periodically check the angle to align with seasonal sun shifts.
• Snow Removal: In snowy conditions, promptly remove snow from the solar panels with a soft brush to prevent damage and restore sunlight exposure.
• Weather Protection: While the lights have an IP44 waterproof rating, it is advisable to keep them indoors during severe stormy weather to prevent potential damage to the solar panels.

Troubleshooting

• Light Not Turning On:
  • Ensure the ON/OFF switch is in the 'ON' position.
  • Verify that the insulation tab has been removed.
  • Check if the solar panel is receiving adequate direct sunlight for charging (6-8 hours).
  • Confirm that the battery is correctly installed and not depleted. The lights include a 1000MAH NI-MH AA rechargeable battery.
• Short Illumination Time:
  • The solar panel may not be receiving enough direct sunlight. Relocate the light to a sunnier spot.
  • Clean the solar panel surface to remove any obstructions.
  • The battery may be old or damaged and require replacement.
• Inconsistent Operation:
  • Ensure there are no external light sources (e.g., streetlights, other outdoor lights) near the solar light that might interfere with its dusk-to-dawn sensor.
