4. Setup and Installation
Follow these steps to set up your ELECLINK Solar Pathway Lights:
- Unpack the Lights: Carefully remove all components from the packaging. Ensure no parts are missing or damaged.
- Activate the Light: Locate the power button, usually on the underside of the solar panel or near the base of the light head. Press the button to turn the light ON. The light will not illuminate in daylight, but it is now ready to charge and operate automatically.
- Choose Installation Location: Select a location that receives 6-8 hours of direct sunlight daily. Avoid areas under trees, eaves, or other obstructions that might shade the solar panel, as this will significantly reduce charging efficiency and illumination time.
- Assemble the Light: The lights come with two height options. Choose your desired height by connecting the appropriate pole sections. Then, firmly attach the ground stake to the bottom of the light pole.
- Install into Ground: Gently push the assembled light with the ground stake into soft soil. If the ground is hard, loosen it with water or a tool before inserting the stake to prevent damage to the light or stake. Do not force the light into hard ground.
- Initial Charge: Allow the lights to charge for at least 6-8 hours in direct sunlight before their first use. This ensures the battery is fully charged for optimal performance.

5. Operation
Once installed and initially charged, your ELECLINK Solar Pathway Lights will operate automatically:
- Automatic On/Off: The lights feature a built-in light sensor. They will automatically turn on at dusk and turn off at dawn.
- Charging: During the day, the integrated solar panels will convert sunlight into electricity, storing it in the internal rechargeable battery.
- Illumination: At night, the stored energy powers the LED lights, providing warm white illumination for your outdoor areas. A full charge can provide up to 10-12 hours of light.
- All-Weather Ready: With an IP65 waterproof rating and durable ABS material, these lights are designed to withstand various outdoor weather conditions, including rain, heat, and frost.

6. Maintenance
To ensure your solar pathway lights continue to perform optimally, follow these simple maintenance tips:
- Clean Solar Panels: Regularly wipe the solar panels with a soft, damp cloth to remove dust, dirt, leaves, or snow. A clean panel ensures maximum sunlight absorption and charging efficiency.
- Clear Obstructions: Periodically check that no new obstructions (e.g., overgrown plants, new structures) are shading the solar panel during the day.
- Inspect for Damage: Occasionally inspect the lights for any physical damage. While durable, extreme weather or accidental impact could affect performance.
- Winter Care: In areas with heavy snow or prolonged periods of low sunlight, you may consider bringing the lights indoors during winter months to preserve battery life, or ensure they are cleared of snow regularly.
7. Troubleshooting
If your solar pathway lights are not functioning as expected, try the following solutions:
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Light does not turn on at night. | 1. Power switch is OFF. 2. Insufficient sunlight/charge. 3. Solar panel is dirty or obstructed. 4. Light sensor is detecting ambient light. | 1. Ensure the power switch is in the 'ON' position. 2. Relocate the light to an area with 6-8 hours of direct sunlight. 3. Clean the solar panel. Remove any debris. 4. Ensure the light is not near other light sources (e.g., streetlights, porch lights) that might prevent it from activating. |
| Light is dim or only stays on for a short time. | 1. Insufficient charge due to poor sunlight. 2. Battery capacity reduced over time. | 1. Ensure the light receives full, direct sunlight for 6-8 hours daily. Clean the solar panel. 2. While batteries are designed for longevity, their capacity can decrease over years. Ensure optimal charging conditions. |
| Light flickers. | Loose connection or low battery. | Ensure all connections are secure. Allow the light to fully charge in direct sunlight. |
