AV-09-4WL Solar Windsock Light Kit
Trouble Shooting
Problem
Remedy
Light will not activate.
• Ensure battery connections are correct polarity.
• Ensure lantern is in darkness.
• Ensure battery terminals are properly connected.
• Ensure battery voltage is above 12volts.
Light will not operate for the
entire night.
• When the lantern is initially removed from storage the battery may be
discharged and require several days of operational conditions to ‘cycle’
up to full autonomy. Expose lantern to direct sunlight and monitor
operation for several days. Avlite products typically require an average
2.5 hours of direct sunlight per day to retain full autonomy.
• Ensure solar module is clean and not covered by shading during the day.
• Do not cover module with protective devices such as a steel cage as
small shadows across cells reduce performance.
• Batteries slowly lose capacity over time. Failure to operate for the full
night may be the result of loss of capacity which means the battery must
be replaced.
