Hello.

The Truro wall light takes a 18650 2600mAh Lithium-Ion Rechargeable Battery and will be included with the light.

Hello,

Our lights need to be installed in a south facing position. 

Thank you for your question. I would have a look at our 'Floodlight' section, please do look out for the items with PIR. You could also have a look at our EVO SMD Security light family.  This include the EVO SMD, EVO SMD PRO, EVO SMD ELITE 

The distance between the holes on the back plate is 3cm.

HiJoshua, These lights are 3000K

HI Angela, all our lights run on rechargable batteries just not all can be replaced with the Truros you can replace the battery. It would be the 18650

Hi Kate, thank you for your message, we do advise all our customers to place their light in a south facing postition. Im concerned that if the sun light does not reach the panel it will then limit its charge and then limit the lights potential. 

Hi Jeff, 
The P stands for Power Saving this mode is best used during the winter when we have a limited amount of sun 
S is for the Standard mode best to use this during summer as you get more charge in your light. 

Hi Neil!

I can confirm our Truro Solar Wall Light - Anthracite Edition emits a lovely warm white tone!

Hello Cat!

Thank you for your question!

I can confirm our Truro Solar Wall Light - Anthracite Edition emits a lovely warm white tone!

Hi Claire.

Thank you for your question!

The dimensions of the Truro Solar Wall Light - Anthracite Edition are:

• The total length of light: 127mm
• Base width: 89mm
• Panel width: 118mm
• Width of back bracket: 61mm

Hi Natalie!

Thank you for your question!

The distance between the holes on the back plate is 3cm.

we do advise to leave them in off position when charging in sunlight for 5 days, then if you can switch it into p or s mode and it should run for up to 10 hours from a full charge, if however you still have issues please can you contact [email protected]

It is 61mm wide.

Yes, you can install this light on the fence. 

Yes, both the stainless steel and the anthracite edition would have exactly the same dimensions, which are:

118mm x 127mm x 89mm.

I am afraid not. It does not come with a PIR sensor.

As long as it is a South facing wall and there are no obstructions or shadows that should be okay. 

Please be advised that the light cannot be charged via windows and it needs to be exposed to some direct daylight. 

There are anthracite/ grey in colour. 

It's one led. 

This light has an output of 40 Lumens. 

Depending on when you bought the unit, you either need AA rechargeable batteries or 18650 - 26000mAh. Both are available on the website. Please open the unit as per the instructions and double-check prior to placing an order.

It's 3000 Kelvin.

Yes, there is an on/off switch button. 

They can be fixed to a wall or post if the surace is flat. 

IP44

11 cm by 10.5 and the back plate is 6 cm. 

 A full charge will last for up to 10 hours in the summer time and 6-8 hours in the winter dependent on the amount of daylight.

They give off a natural white colour

We recommend you charge them in the off position for 3-5 days 

Correct! One dusk arrives the lights come to life. 

The bottom of the light twists off like a jam jar, there is then an on/off switch, so depending on how high you have the lights is how easy it is to get to the switch. 

P = Powersaving, so use this in Winter for the best performance and S = Summer or standard which can be used. 

I can definately suggest this to our product team!

We do not recommend them for a north facing wall or anywhere which is going to have anything over the top of the solar panel. They will need access to as much direct sunlight as possible. 

P is for powersaving which is for Winter working and S is Standard and should be used in summer. 

The bulbs cannot be changed and any attempt to do so will invalidate the warranty. 

That is correct. The bottom unscrews to get to the off/on switch.

The batteries are included already. You may need purchase new batteries once they stop recharging. We mean no electricity costs. 

These have a black back plate that screws on the wall, so not the silver bar along the back. 

These would need to quite close to the ground to light the floor, we usually recommend these for lighting up door numbers or key holes. 

That is correct. 

No sorry, I will pass this onto the product development team. 

Yes, just unscrew the bottom of the light and switch to 'off' 

Please see our Truro Wall lights here

These are a warm light, 3000 Kelvin. 

11 cm by 10.5 and the back plate is 6 cm. 

11cm x 10.5 cm and the back plate is 6cm wide. 

These would work for you. Please make sure that the panel is unobstructed and I would place this onto the powersaving mode in winter. With a good location it should run up to 6 hours. 

40 Lumens

Hello, 

These are not recommended for North facing locations or underneath eaves/porches as they will not get sufficient charge. Please do look at our other lights with separate solar panels that can be located somewhere more sunny. For example the Chester Anthracite. 

No plans currently but we are considering it.

Hi,

These are a warm light, 3000 Kelvin. 

Yes, the Truro will come on when it gets dark and off at first light.
