MPOWERD Luci Solar Bike Light Set, Instruction Manual

Page: 4 / 5

Do I need to activate the solar charger?
No activation needed. Simply place the light in direct
sunlight with the solar side up.
Do I need any tools to set up my Bike Light?
Nope. Our Bike Light is extremely easy to install with
absolutely no toolkit needed!
Will the LEDs ever need replacing?
Nope, never. Not unless they are somehow damaged
of course. But fear not, we’ve designed and
manufactured our products so that you would have
to go out of your way to get in and damage the LEDs.
What's the difference between charging the light
via USB or the solar panel?
Speed! Charging via USB is ~6x faster than via solar
due to the input power. Whether charging via solar
or USB however, the outcome remains the same - a
full battery charge. Our advice is to charge via solar
for a natural source of power, but if you’re in a pinch,
charge via USB.
Can my light be left outside?
Yes! In fact, our products love being outside in the
open. Luci is durable and waterproof. This means you
don’t need to take cover when it rains on your ride.
I'm going mountain biking. Will my light remain in
the mount with all the bumps?
Yes! Our Bike Light connects to the mounts via
industrial-strength magnets, and was built to
withstand extreme vibrations and bumps.
Do the straps fit around thicker handlebars or
seatposts?
Our adjustable silicone strap allows our bike light to
be fixed to any standard handlebar dimension and
seat-post. Our straps can comfortably fit around
diameters ranging from 25 mm to 32 mm.

Frequently asked
questions
What is direct sunlight?
Direct sunlight means that the sun’s light is directly
hitting the solar panel. For example, if you were
standing outside under the sun with nothing
obstructing you and the sun, then you would be
in direct sunlight. If you were standing inside, you
would be getting indirect sunlight but no direct
rays from the sun. Solar panels always need direct
sunlight to charge. If in doubt, think of it this way; if
you were Luci and you were able to directly see the
sun, then you would be in direct sunlight!
It's cloudy, will my light still charge?
Yes, but it will charge at a slower rate than on a
bright, clear day. As your Luci charges via the red and
violet frequencies of visible light, the charge times
will vary based on the UV index or overcast skies.
Generally speaking, the higher the UV index, the
faster the charge.
Will my light charge under indoor lighting?
The sun generates significant red and violet
frequencies (which charge your Luci), whereas your
ordinary indoor lights emit a tiny fraction of that UV.
We recommend you go straight to the source and put
your Luci directly in the sunlight from a windowsill
or, for the best results, outside! Luci is durable and
completely waterproof.
Do I need batteries?
Nope. All of our products are solar powered and
rechargeable, so no batteries are needed. No more
searching the drawer for that second AA!
Can I charge your products from my car dashboard?
We advise against charging on a car dashboard. On
a hot summer day, your car dashboard can reach
temperatures of up to 160ºF (71°C) which exceeds the
temperature limit of our products - 122°F (50°C).
How do I charge the taillight?
To charge the taillight simply connect the headlight
and taillight together via the magnetic snap, and
the front will power the rear! Just be sure that the
headlight is charged.
