The Charlton Home Sebastopol solar light fixture with bright-white LEDs is the perfect energy-saving and money-saving alternative to outdoor electric or gas-powered outdoor lighting. Made from heavy-duty, rustproof, UV-protected black ABS, this fixture comes with all the hardware for mounting the unit three ways: as an outdoor wall sconce; on flat surfaces, such as pillars or columns; or at the top of a three-inch-diameter lamp post (post not included). Just install it, and the sun does the rest. The fixture’s 1,500 mAh internal Li-ion battery pack charges when sunlight hits the four integrated solar panels. The fixture is designed to shine at 130 lumens from dusk to dawn when the battery has received a full solar charge during the daytime. Charlton Home’s patented cone reflector enhances the multi-directional light dispersion and glow. The unit’s replaceable, plugged battery pack is good for about 1,000 charges. With proper setup for optimal sun exposure, a sunny day without cloud cover should be sufficient to provide a full battery recharge. Recharging speed will vary based on weather conditions, but no charging will occur if direct sun does not shine on the solar panels. Do not locate the light fixture in a shaded area. Beyond providing a superior combination of light brightness, duration, and charging speed, Charlton Home solar light fixtures are known for their physical durability. This unit’s mono crystalline silicon solar panels are protected by weather-resistant tempered glass and a second cleanable clear plastic shield, helping to ensure long-lasting performance.
