Welcome to the SolarGo2 PL001 security light.
Made from Silver coated aluminium and strong UV resilient plastic, it is a light that is going to last.
This light is simply built to last and once installed and running (a simple 2 bolt install) its light output blows most mains powered security lights out of the water but with none of the wiring hassles. The 3000 lumens output is activated via its PIR. You can then choose what level of output it reverts to with its 3 lighting modes and two timer modes.
This light also has a remote control letting you set the different modes at will; handy when it is installed high up on a pole. It also lets you set the light to be constantly on for 10 or 20 mins at a time before reverting to the original mode you set the light to. A simple press of the button on the remote will change modes.
This light will mount on to poles with a diameter between 50 and 65mm (pole not included)
This powerful light also has the brilliant ASL2.1 Technology and TCS technology built in**.
It has 3 working modes, that can be simply selected by pressing the buttons via the remote or on the unit itself:
Mode 1
This gives you a PIR security light that runs at 120 lumens until the PIR picks up some movement. It then gives you the full 3000 lumens output for 10 seconds before returning to the 120 lumens setting (unless it registers another movement during this time). This is indicated by a red LED on the light.
Mode 2
This gives you a PIR security light that runs at 240 lumens until the PIR picks up some movement. It then gives you the full 3000 lumens output for 10 seconds before returning to the 240 lumens setting (unless it registers another movement during this time). This is indicated by an orange LED on the light.
Mode 3
This lets the light run at 400 lumens for 5 hours at this light level with the full 3000 lumens if the PIR detects movement. After the 5 hours the light sets itself down to 80 lumens, saving the power in the internal battery but still with the PIR function of 3000 lumens.
The SolarGo2 PL001 is ideal for placing on long driveways, building sites, boat pontoons, outside stables etc.
Please note: To get the very best from any solar light the solar panel should have full view of the sky and at least some direct sunlight during the day.
** ASL2.1 Technology gives the ability to preserve its power and slightly dim the main output power when it detects the energy of the Li-ion battery (built into the unit) is starting to run low, Giving you extra days with a working light even when the weather conditions are working against a solar powered system. This technology gives you up to 270% more working time over similar solar products.
** TCS Technology gives the device the ability to protect the internal battery from the high and low extremes in temperature. This in turn extends the life of the battery.
How do I turn the light on and off?
The ON/OFF/FUNCTION button is on the back of the light. This is a master on/off button but once turned on you can use the supplied remote to control the light.
Press and hold the button for 2 seconds to turn this light on or off.
What batteries are used in the Remote control?
It uses 2 x AAA batteries (not supplied).
How do I know what mode the light is in?
This light has three modes which are activated with the ON/OFF/FUNCTION button / or the remote. Each of the functions will make the power button light up a different colour as follows:
Red = Mode 1
Orange = Mode 2
Green = Mode 3
What does each mode do?
Mode 1: This gives you a PIR security light that runs at 120 lumens until the PIR picks up some movement. It then gives you the full 3000 lumens output for 10 seconds before returning to the 120 lumens setting (unless it registers another movement during this time).
Mode 2: This gives you a PIR security light that runs at 240 lumens until the PIR picks up some movement. It then gives you the full 3000 lumens output for 10 seconds before returning to the 240 lumens setting (unless it registers another movement during this time).
Mode 3: This lets the light run at 400 lumens for 5 hours at this light level with the full 3000 lumens if the PIR detects movement. After the 5 hours the light sets itself down to 80 lumens saving the power in the internal battery but still with the PIR function of 3000 lumens.
How do I access the timer modes?
You need to do this from the remote control as follows:
Press the "T" button once for 10 mins run time with the light returning to its previous setting.
Press the "T" button twice for 20 mins run time with the light returning to its previous setting.
Do I need to bring this light in during the winter in the UK?
No, this light has been designed to remain outside in all weather conditions.
I am worried that the internal battery will die, and I will not have a working light, can I replace it?
If your light stops working, please call us and we will help you get it going again. If the Internal battery needs replacing it is something we need to do in our workshop and not something you can do at home, sorry.
I am only getting 2 to 3 hours of light, what is wrong?
This sounds like your battery is in a low state of charge and you are running the light flat each night. Please try some of the options below to fix it:
- Make sure the solar panel part of the light isn't covered up or dirty
- Move the light to somewhere it gets more daylight / sun during the day
- Try setting the light to Mode 1 as this will only set the light on when movement is detected, saving the power in the battery when it's not being used.
How do I know if the built-in battery has got power in it?
There is a little LED on the light that will indicate the power in the battery once the units running at night.
- Green = 80% + charge in the battery
- Steady Orange = 50% to 80% charge in the battery
- Steady Red = under 50% charge in the battery
What size pole do I need to install this light?
We recommend a 50mm to 65mm diameter pole. The 50mm pole is a standard scaffolding pole that can be purchased from most scaffolding hire companies for a low cost.
I have dropped / broken my light do you have spare parts?
We do carry a few spare parts so please call the office to see what we can do to help.
