Lighting Instructions

How Your Solar Powered Post Cap Works 

•  The solar panel converts sunlight energy into electricity during the day. The photocell automatically 

turns the light on at night with the electricity stored in the batteries. It requires no wiring, because it 
runs off the sunlight energy to recharge the batteries so there is no cost to run the solar cap. 

•  The number of hours the light stays on depends on your geographical location, weather conditions 

and seasonal sunlight availability.

• Easy “Do-It Yourself” installation.

Includes:

 

 1- Solar Post Cap Light    1- AA Ni-MH Rechargeable Battery    1- 5.5 x 5.5 Adaptor    2- Mounting Screws

Post Cap Installation 

1) Twist the solar lid counter clockwise to remove from cap base as shown (fig.1).

4) Remove the adaptor if necessary (fig.1) and place fixture onto post.
5) Secure fixture using two mounting screws provided.

To Replace The Battery 

(Battery replacement is approximately 1-2 years) 

1)  Twist the solar lid counter clockwise to remove from cap base  

as shown (fig.1). 

2)  Replace the battery with a new AA size 1.2 V Ni-MH rechargeable battery.  

Be sure to insert the battery in the proper direction.

3) Twist the lid back into place.
4)  Allow the fixture to receive a full 24 hours of sunlight to allow  

the  rechargeable battery to reach maximum capacity.

Troubleshooting 

If the light does not turn on at dusk after 24 hours of charging: 
 • Check the batteries to make sure they are making secure contact with the terminal. 
 • Be sure the solar fixture is in a relatively sunny location.
 • Make sure the light’s photocell is not affected by other light.

Maintenance

 Periodically clean light fixture with soft cloth and warm soapy water.
