5. Installation
No wiring is required for installation. Follow these steps:
- Choose a Location: Select a location that receives direct sunlight for at least 6-8 hours daily to ensure optimal charging of the solar panel. The recommended installation height is approximately 8.2 feet (2.5 meters) for effective motion detection and light coverage.
- Mark Drill Holes: Hold the light against the desired mounting surface and mark the positions for the two mounting screws.
- Drill Holes: Use an appropriate drill bit to drill holes at the marked positions. Insert the expansion screws (wall anchors) into the drilled holes if mounting on masonry or drywall.
- Mount the Light: Align the light with the drilled holes and secure it using the mounting screws. Ensure the light is firmly attached to the surface.
