PostLite™ Quick Reference:
1. The solar panel of the PostLite™ needs exposure to direct
sunlight for several hours during the day to accumulate a
sufficient charge to light through the evening. If the operating
time of the light is short, try moving the PostLite™ to an area
exposed to sunlight for a longer duration during the day.
2. Ensure that the battery is seated properly and is correctly
installed. The negative side of the battery goes against the
spring contact. Periodically inspect the battery connections for
corrosion.
3. If the battery is not charged sufficiently, or if the battery is
damaged, the length of time the PostLite illuminates will be
reduced.
4. If the LED does not work, try another LED color to determine
if it is the result of poor battery performance or a burnt out
LED. If the alternate LED illuminates, the battery may require
replacement. Use only rechargeable Ni-Cd or Ni-Mh batteries.
Battery Removal and Installation:
1. Unscrew off the top cap with solar panel.
2. Unscrew the two screws holding the circuit board in place.
3. Replace battery with AAA (triple A) rechargeable Ni-Cd or Ni-Mh batteries.
4. Reinstall the circuit board and screw the solar cap on snugly to properly seal
your PostLite™.

Winter Storage Tips:
Extreme weather conditions can reduce the life and efficiency of your PostLite™.
• Extreme weather conditions can reduce the life and efficiency of your PostLite™ Ni-Cd or Ni-Mh battery. Remove and store your PostLite™ indoors if
possible during the winter.
• Remove the set screw from the PostLite™. Romove the PostLite™ and take indoors for winter storage. Unscrew the solar cap and remove the battery
for separate storage from the PostLite™.
• If you have glued the base of your PostLite™ a 3-1/4” post or do not wish to remove the entire assembly, you may simply remove the solar top
(Electronics Portion) and store the entire electronic portion of your PostLite indoors. Cover the remaining PostLite™ base with plastic and tie or tape
the plastic to the post to protect from the elements and moisture accumulation.
