5-Step Installation Process

1. Optimal Placement Strategy

Identify locations receiving direct sunlight for at least 6 hours daily. South-facing walls typically work best in northern hemisphere locations.

2. Mounting Preparation

  • Clean the installation surface
  • Mark screw holes using the template
  • Drill pilot holes (depth = screw length + 5mm)

3. Secure the Bracket

Use corrosion-resistant screws for permanent installation. Ensure the bracket is level before tightening completely.

4. Connect Solar Panel

Most modern units feature integrated panels. For separate panels:

  • Maintain 30°-45° tilt angle
  • Keep within 10ft of light unit

5. Final Adjustments

Test the light by covering the solar panel. Allow 24-48 hours for full battery initialization.

  • Ignoring seasonal sun angles
  • Over-tightening screws
