INSTALLATION AND OPERATION
1. Consider the following to determine the best location for your
solar LED EggLites:
The lights can be used dry or submerged in your water
feature. The solar panel should not be submerged, but can
withstand rainy, outdoor environments.
Each light comes with a 16-inch pliable cord that can be
formed to stand on its own or coiled around foliage and
fountain heads in the landscape.
Choose a location for the solar panel that maximizes its
exposure to the sun. Locate the solar panel so that its
surface is mostly perpendicular to the sun’s rays throughout
the day.
The solar panel can be secured using one of two methods.
1) Ground Stake: Use the attached ground stake to secure
the panel into the ground of the landscape (Figure 6). To
adjust the orientation of the panel to the sun, loosen the
stake screw, pivot the panel to the desired orientation,
then tighten the screw. 2) Frame Mounting: The solar panel

frame has slots that accommodate a variety of mounting
methods. Use #6 size wood screws (not included) to
secure the panel to a fixed board or post, or use wire (not
included) to loop through the slots and secure the panel to
a fence or similar item.
An optional extension cord (5- or 10-foot) can be purchased
to provide greater distance between the EggLites and
the three-way connector. See list of accessories (sold
separately).
2. Install the pre-assembled lights and solar panel.
3. Check to see that all LED EggLites illuminate when the ambient
light turns dark.
MAINTENANCE
1. BATTERY: Although your kit’s battery has a long life, it may
eventually need to be replaced. Please follow the instructions
below:
a. Loosen the stake screw at the stake pivot point and rotate the
stake to allow access to the battery cover (Figure 6).
b. Remove the 2 battery screws from the cover.
c. Remove the battery cover.
d. Remove the battery and disconnect the cable.
e. Connect and install the new battery. Use an authorized
replacement battery only (see Replacement Parts table).
f. Replace the battery cover and secure it with the 2 cover
screws.
g. Rotate the stake back to its original position and tighten the
stake screw.
2. PHOTOCELL: For proper operation of the automatic on/off
feature, periodically clean the photocell window using a clean,
damp cloth (Figure 5).
