01 Introduction
Thank you for purchasing CEGONIA Urban Lighting Products.
CEGONIA combine stylish design with high efficiency. You can adjust both the tilt angle and the azimuth to make sure the panel is in the optimal position to capture the sun's energy. It is a perfect fit for courtyards, parks, schools, communities, and paths.
Important Notes
- To avoid deep discharge of the battery during storage, please fully recharge your battery every 4 months.
- Ensure the light is installed in an area with sufficient sunlight irradiance, with a minimum of 3.5 hours/day of sunshine on average recommended.
- Select the right operating mode according to local legislation and sunshine conditions. Keep it away from shadows.
- Self-cleaning is available when the light fixture has a minimum tilt angle of 15 degrees.
Please save these instructions. Read all instructions carefully before attempting installation or wiring. Do not open or attempt to repair the product yourself, as it may cause serious damage and void the warranty. Contact your local distributor for any questions.
The range of the light module is 20-26 feet (6-8 meters). The ideal installation spacing is >16 feet (5 meters). When installing multiple fixtures on one pole, select the desired operating mode before installation. Interference can cause delays or malfunctions when using the remote control after installation.
Precautions when working with solar panels
When the solar panel is exposed to sunlight, a voltage appears at its output terminals, making it a source of electricity. To avoid shock hazard, cover the solar panel with an opaque (dark) material like paper or cloth during installation. Do not touch the terminals when the panel is exposed to sunlight or any other light source.

04 Battery Notes
- CEGONIA lights use LiFePO4 batteries, known for brightness and reliability.
- Full battery charging may take 6 to 12 hours.
- Light output is reduced to 40% when battery capacity drops below 40%.
- Charging stops if the ambient temperature is below 32°F or above 149°F.
Battery Status Indicator:
Red Indicator (Charging):
- Slow red light flashing: Charging
- Red light continuously on: Fully charged
- Quick red flashing: Charge fault
Green Indicator (Not Charging):
- Green light continuously on: More than 40% battery capacity remaining
- Slow green light flashing: Battery capacity below 10%
- Quick green light flashing: Battery below 0% (protection mode to prevent over-discharge)
Storage
To prevent over-discharge during storage, recharge the lighting fixture every 4 months. Use the dedicated charger and reset the switch when done.
Battery Replacement
- Disconnect the wire connectors.
- Loosen the screws of the battery pack and carefully remove the battery pack.
- Replace with a new battery.
- Tighten the screws of the battery pack.
- Reconnect the wire connectors, ensuring correct color matching.
Diagram shows wire connectors, battery pack, and battery pack screws.
(IAP) Intelligent Adaptive Program Battery Control Technology
This feature extends the off-grid autonomy of CEGONIA lights in challenging conditions (shady trees, heavy rain, thick clouds). The controller actively tracks battery capacity and adjusts light output accordingly. Previously, remote settings dictated a fixed percentage of max LED brightness. With (IAP), the controller applies the selected percentage to the current battery capacity, potentially increasing off-grid performance by up to 40%.
05 Installation and Wiring Compliance
- Installation and wiring must comply with State and National Electrical Codes.
- CEGONIA 8W, 20W, and 30W models are for outdoor use only. Install in a well-ventilated area within the product's operational temperature range.
- The installation area should have an average sunshine of at least 3.5 hours/day to ensure full function. Avoid shaded areas.
- Ensure the light pole and its foundation are sufficiently solid to support the lighting fixture(s).
- Before installation, ensure the battery is fully charged. Install during sunny days if possible.
- Before installation, press the ON/OFF key on the remote control and check the indicator light. Cover the panel and verify the light module turns on within 1 minute.
After Installation
The lighting fixture will automatically turn on at night and turn off during daylight.
Important Installation Tips
- Always orient the solar panel facing the equator (e.g., south in the northern hemisphere).
- Maintain a tilt angle of at least 15° to prevent dust accumulation (0° is a horizontal plane).

07 Installation
Detailed installation steps with diagrams for CEGONIA 8W and CEGONIA 20W/30W models.
CEGONIA 8W Installation
Diagrams show connecting components and adjusting the solar panel angle using Component Kit B (for tilt) and Component Kit A (for rotation). Angles indicated are ±45° and 180°.
CEGONIA 20W 30W Installation
Similar diagrams illustrate connecting components and adjusting the solar panel angle using Component Kit B (for tilt) and Component Kit A (for rotation). Angles indicated are ±45° and 270°.
08 Panel Angle
Guidance on optimizing solar panel angles for maximum power intake. It is recommended to angle solar panels at a tilt equal to the area's latitude.
Tip:
You can increase the tilt by 15° in winter or decrease it by 15° in summer to maximize sunlight capture.
Key:
Color-coded map of the USA indicating areas with Strong sunlight (orange), Normal sunlight (yellow), and Less sunlight (red). The map also shows latitude lines and recommended panel tilt angles for different regions (e.g., 37°-45° for much of the US, 26°-37° for southern regions).
Best Facing Direction For The Solar Panel:
Panels facing South are optimal. Panels facing West and East will still collect good sunlight, while North-facing panels will take longer to charge. The installation location may dictate panel orientation, but even non-south facing panels are functional.
World Wide Panel Angles:
A world map illustrating recommended panel tilt angles based on latitude bands, ranging from 0°-13° near the equator to 37°-45° at higher latitudes.
09 Remote Control Guide
Instructions for operating the CEGONIA lights using the remote control.
Remote Functions:
- On/Off: Turns the light on or off. When off, the solar panel does not charge the battery, and the battery does not power the light.
- Connect/Test: Connects the remote to a fixture (one at a time) or tests its operation. Pressing "Test" shows a red light for charging or green for operating for 10 seconds, then returns to the previous mode.
- 40%-100% Motion Sensor Mode (Default): Operates at 40% brightness from dusk to dawn, increasing to 100% for 2 minutes when motion is detected.
- 20%-80% Motion Sensor Mode (Default): Operates at 20% brightness from dusk to dawn, increasing to 80% for 2 minutes when motion is detected.
- Night Owl Mode: Adjusts brightness as natural light decreases/increases. Starts at dusk with 70% brightness for 0.5 hr, then 100% for 3.5 hrs, 70% for 1 hr, 50% for 1 hr, and 20% for 5 hrs, turning off at dawn.
- Early Bird Mode: Similar to Night Owl but with increased brightness near dawn. Starts at dusk with 70% for 0.5 hr, 100% for 3.5 hrs, 70% for 1 hr, 50% for 1 hr, 20% for 4 hrs, and a final 100% for 1 hr, turning off at dawn.
- 100% Constant Mode: Maintains 100% brightness from dusk to dawn.
- 70% Constant Mode: Maintains 70% brightness from dusk to dawn.
- 40% Constant Mode: Maintains 40% brightness from dusk to dawn.
- Timer Mode Disabled: Turns off any active timer mode, reverting to the previous setting.
- Timer Mode 4 Hours: Works with other modes. If the light turns on at 7 PM, it will turn off at 11 PM, repeating this schedule.
- Time Mode 8 Hours: Works with other modes. If the light turns on at 7 PM, it will turn off at 3 AM, repeating this schedule.
Charts illustrate the lumen output over time for each mode.
Remote Control Range:
The remote control range is 16ft during the day and 33ft at night. Sunlight can affect the signal; it is recommended to set the mode before installation.
(IAP) Intelligent Adaptive Program Battery Control Technology:
As described in Battery Notes, this technology optimizes battery usage and light output based on real-time battery capacity.
Important Note on Timing:
Dust and dawn times can vary by location and season. The product's sensors adapt to local light patterns. The time periods shown in the charts are examples.
