• Other light sources: If your solar lights are located too close to a street
light, porch light or another solar light, it may not turn on automatically at
night. The built-in photocell light sensor is reacting to the other light
source. Eliminate the other light source or relocate your solar lights.
• Dirty solar panel: A dirty solar panel will not allow the battery to fully
charge. This will shorten the life of the battery and cause the light to
malfunction. Clean regularly with a dampened cloth or paper towel.
After correcting the problem, check the light operation immediately after dark or
in a dark room. If the light will only operate for a short time, the battery needs
recharging.
• Clean snow and debris off the solar panel to allow battery to recharge.
• Check and replace battery periodically throughout the year, especially
after winter months.
