Please Read This Before
You Start
The Motion-Activated Porch Light uses both a MOTION sensor and a
PHOTO sensor. The photo sensor prevents the light from being activated
during daylight hours or when other light sources are present.
When batteries are installed the light will come on and the electronic
circuitry will set. The light will turn off when the process has completed.
If the light does not turn off after battery installation and initial circuitry
set, we recommend testing the unit by placing it in dark room away from
any possible heat and light sources. If operating normally, the light should
turn off after 30-45 seconds if no motion is present. Light should turn back
on when motion is again detected. If light does not function properly
please see Troubleshooting below or contact us for further assistance.
Manual Operation
This light operates by sensor only. It does not have an on/off switch.
However the light may be turned off by rotating the sensor toward the wall
(mounting surface) so that it is covered by the light casing. The battery door
will be visible, but the sensor will not. In this position, the sensor will not
be able to detect motion and will not activate the light. Return to normal
position when operation by sensor is desired.
PLEASE READ THE ENCLOSED INSTRUCTIONS THOROUGHLY
BEFORE USING THIS PRODUCT.
Troubleshooting
No mounting plate
Remove the mounting plate as per the diagram in the instructions.
Light will not turn off
Test the light as instructed above.
Light will not turn on
Check to make certain that your batteries are fresh.
Check the alignment (polarity) of the batteries.
Check to make certain that the battery holder has been properly installed
and the contacts properly aligned.
Moisture in the battery case
Check to make certain that the battery door has been securely closed to
ensure a tight fit against the rubber seal.

6-LED Wireless Porch Light Instructions and Installation
Features & General Information
Battery Installation
The Motion-Activated Porch Light is a battery-operated outdoor light that
installs in minutes and is perfect for lighting porches, decks, sheds,
garages, doors, fences…anywhere you need light outdoors for added
safety, security, or convenience. The Porch Light is completely weatherproof and can safely be mounted outdoors without special tools or the
expense of hiring an electrician. It works great indoors too!
Rotate the light head (globe) until the 6-LED panel is facing towards the back of
the unit and battery door is exposed. Open battery door by rotating in a
counter-clockwise direction. Slide out the battery holder and insert with 4 C
size batteries according to the polarities on the battery holder. Replace the
battery holder and the battery door. Rotate the battery door clockwise to seal it.
The Porch Light has a built-in motion sensor which automatically turns on
the light when a moving heat source is detected. The light comes on for
approximately 30 seconds and remains on as long as motion continues to
be detected in the area. The Porch Light also has a built-in photo sensor
which prevents the light from being activated during daylight hours.
The Porch Light uses 4 C cell batteries. Alkaline batteries are
recommended and will last anywhere from 6 months to one year depending
on the frequency of activation.
The six ultra-bright Floodlight LEDs™ will last for more than 100,000 hours
and will never need to be replaced. And unlike conventional LEDs which
light only a small surface, Floodlight LEDs cast an ultra-wide, glare-free
beam to illuminate your path for enhanced safety and for hands-free
convenience.
Selecting Location
The Porch Light should not installed near heat sources such as air conditioners,
exhaust vents, barbecues. Street lights or other lights may be detected by the
photo sensor and prevent the light from operating correctly. Whenever
possible, the Porch Light should be installed at least 30 feet away from the
street or located in a shielded area to prevent activation by cars, pedestrians or
animals.
Please note also that shaded areas may cause the light to be activated during
the day and that reflective surfaces (light colored walls, swimming pools or
ponds) may trigger the motion sensor causing false activation.
To ensure reliable detection, the Porch Light should be installed at a height
between 6 to 8 feet. The motion sensor’s maximum detection distance is 25
feet and has a detection angle of 100˚.
Installing The Light
SPECIFICATIONS
1 Slide the mounting plate off the back of the Porch Light (see illustration below).
Batteries: 4 C cell alkaline or Ni-mh
Voltage: 6V DC
Light Duration: 30 +/- 4 seconds
Detection Angle: 100˚ cone
Max Detection Distance: 25 feet
ATTENTION
To avoid damage to the electrical components, please observe the following
precautions:
2 Making sure that the
arrows on the mounting plate are pointed upwards,
securely fasten it to the wall or other stable surface using 2 wood screws (included).
Do not aim the sensor directly towards the sun.
3 Please note that it is generally recommended to drill pilot holes prior to fastening
the screws. In some cases, special fasteners for surfaces such as drywall, cement,
or brick may be required.
Do not expose the light to static electricity.
4 Slide the knob on the back of the Porch Light into the slot on the mounting plate.
5 Adjust the light and sensor as needed by swiveling it on the mounting plate
and/or rotating the light head.
Do not shake or drop the light.
Please note that circuit requires 90 seconds to stabilize after the
batteries are inserted.
