Functioning
The solar panel
electrical energy and stores it in the rechargeable battery.
The product will automatically light on as it begins to get dark.
The LEDs are a very long-life and energy-saving light source.
The light duration depends on the amount of sunlight, the angle
of light on the solar panel
able battery capacity is temperature-dependent). A vertical angle
of light at temperatures above the freezing point is ideal. The re-
chargeable battery does not achieve maximum capacity until
after several charge and discharge cycles.
In summer a completely drained rechargeable battery takes
about 2 to 4 days to fully recharge in constant sunlight.
