Frequently Asked Questions - Slate Solar Motion Light

The above unit has an on/off switch button next to the PIR sensor. 

Depth 86mm x Width 208mm x Height 115mm

No sorry, these are motion sensor only.

The range cannot be changed, this has a 5 metre range. 

The Slate detects motion up to 5 metres away, so to test this properly you would need to buy one and just hold it where you are thinking of installing it and test it. 

No sorry, none of our gutter lights have this facility. 

Once installed this powerful motion light emits a 450lumen light for approximately 10 seconds each time motion is detected within a 5m range

It is not possible to angle the light more upwards, this is predominantly a down light and any tilting will reduce the spead of light below. If the location you are looking to put the light is north facing or heavily shaded please look at some of our lights with separate solar panels. Click here and select 'remote' on solar panel type and it will give you some further options. 

The Slate is a natural white colour. 

We do not recommend putting this light on a north facing wall. It will work but may not last very long in the winter months. If you think the area the light is in has low traffic (low number of triggers) per night then it could be an option. 

The Slate only illuminates after dusk and once motion is detected. It won't operate during daylight hours.

The Slate is 450 lumens and the Eco wedge Elite is 1,000 lumens so more than double the brightness.

Only in white.

The light will continue to stay and until movement stop plus 10seconds. 

Our SMD range is the only lights with adjustable sensitivity. 

No this lights is only triggered by movement. Our wall light range is our always-on lights.

The motion sensor will trigger underneath this light so sounds perfect. You have mentioned a porch, you must make sure the solar panel has as much direct light and isn't blocked by a porch roof etc.  

All our lights would work but it would reduce the charge time and the output. If the roofing has UV protection it would reduce it even more. I'd suggest looking at our remote panel lights so you could position the panel outside and have the light inside.

The panel is on top and the light is a down light so shouldn't be any problem but the light could reflect and hit the other panel but very unlikely. I'd suggest testing them first before fully installing them for the best location.

The solar panel is on top of the unit and has a Li-ion battery. It has a flat plate at the back you can screw to a wall, shed or fence which the light head slots on to. We don't sell any lights designed for guttering, but you might be able to make it work. 

The only version we have available is the motion detecting one.

The light is preset to stay on for approx 10 seconds after motion has stopped.
