Operating Principle
The solar module of the lantern converts sunlight to an electrical current that is used to charge the
battery. The battery provides power to operate the lantern at night.
The flasher unit has very low current requirements. A microprocessor drives an array of ultra bright
LED’s through a DC/DC converter, which enables the LED’s to operate within the manufacturer’s
specifications. The battery is protected from over-charging within the circuit to ensure maximum
battery life.
On darkness, the microprocessor will initiate a program check and after approximately 1 minute begin
flashing to the set code.
Technology
Electronics

LED Technology
All marine lanterns use the latest advancements in LED (Light Emitting Diode) technology as a light
source. The major advantage of LED’s over traditional light sources is well established in that they
typically have an operational life in excess of 100,000 hours, resulting in substantial savings to
maintenance and servicing costs.
Moulding Techniques
Sealite’s rotational moulding experience is reflected in the wide range of buoy products offered and
their unique structures designed to increase overall strength and ease of use, including in-moulded
cross bracing and in-mould graphic applications.
