7. Troubleshooting
If your solar post light is not functioning as expected, consider the following:
- No Light at Night: Ensure the light is placed in a location receiving at least 6 hours of direct sunlight daily. Check that the internal switch is set to a light mode (not 'OFF'). Verify that the insulation label has been removed from the battery compartment.
- Dim Light: Insufficient charging due to shade or cloudy weather can result in dim light. Ensure the solar panel is clean and free from obstructions.
- Inconsistent Operation: External light sources (e.g., streetlights, other outdoor lights) near the solar post light can interfere with the photoelectric sensor, preventing it from turning on automatically at dusk. Relocate the light if necessary.
