Question:

Will these work if mounted on the north side of a house wall
By Geoff on Sep 5,2022

Answer:

Hi Geoff!

I am afraid we do not recommend placing the lights in a north-facing wall, we do recommend a south-facing to get the best use out of the light!

Question:

Hi, I have ordered 3 of these lights that are arriving today. We were thinking of installing them on a North East facing garage that straddles the side of our property but are unsure on this.

By john Leigh on Aug 26,2022

Question:

From previous answers I presume the Truro light blank “switch” (for off, P & S settings) is rather oddly controlled by the unlabelled switch on the opposite side of the round plate?
By Steven Smith on Nov 17,2021

Answer:

The Truro wall light has the switches s,p and off whereas the motion light just has the on/off switch which explains the blank switch on the opposite side.

That's correct, the light is either charging in daylight or switched on when low is to low to charge. You can switch the light off at night so it will only charge and not come on.

Question:

Hi I live near the coast. Will this light be weather proof
By Sharon on Feb 29,2020

Answer:

The lights are made of stainless steel, not marine grade so if you are very very close then there maybe some risk of corrosion, especially with the harsh salt air. The best bet is to get some WD40 (other brands are available!) to help create a barrier on top of the proofing on the product.

Question:

Hi. How many hours do they come on for at night in winter? And how do you charge them ? And also how often do they need charged? And how often do batteries need replaced please? Thanks
By Nicole on Jan 27,2020

Answer:

The light will work up to 6 hours in Winter, this is based on a typical location and for it being in the 'p' mode, however it  has been known to run for longer. The lights will need to be switched off initially and then left to charge in as much direct sunlight as possbile, after that switch them to the 'p' mode for winter or 's' if it is summer. The battery should not need changing for at least 2 years.

 

Question:

Hi, could I attach to outside of static caravan with a double sided adhesive pad as I don't want to screw on?

Question:

Thank you,I've received solar light and seems to be working ok, under cover it as switch on/off and opposite side s & p but now switch is it pre set to power saving? Sorry to be a pain, just a query, it's working ok,I've left it off now for few days to top up battery,best wishes,Happy new year.
By Mr I Cunningham on Jan 6,2020

Answer:

The S and P are marked on either side, so it's pre-set mode will be 'off' you then need to choose which one you would like it on. We recommend the 'p' setting for winter. To save on more plastic being used you will see a switch hole with no switch, but just focus on the part with the switch you can move.

 

Question:

Question:

Is the Truro down light best set to P in low light shaded areas for a longer period of power?
By Jeremy on Aug 18,2019

Answer:

P = powers saving mode so if the light is in a poor location or during winter months then p is the best setting.

Question:

I don't want motion sensor however the one with motion sensor appears to have a brighter light, is the sensor switchable?
By chris on Aug 11,2019

Answer:

The size of the panel dictates the brightness of the light. A PIR light is only triggered with movement so can be easily twice as bright. The Truro motion is PIR only. You can switch if off but motion is needed to trigger the light.

Question:

The angle of the solar panel looks rather shallow. How optimal is it for Uk latitudes?
By Mark McElroy on Jul 27,2019

Answer:

The light is designed here in the UK for the UK. The angle increases the charge especially in winter months vs our solar light with flat/horizontal panels.

Question:

What does s and p stand for?
By Patricia on Jul 20,2019

Answer:

S=Standard mode and P=Powersaving mode

Question:

Hello This looks like what I'm looking for but to be sure can you please provide a view as to whether this light will stay on all through the night in winter months to illuminate my house number until around 8am? Thanks
By Paul Armstrong on Jun 2,2019

We are not able to say to will stay on until 8am as we don't know how much light will be reaching the panel. Our lights are designed for winter and the Truro has power saving mode which doubles the run time for winter months.

By Helen on Feb 16,2019

Answer:

Listed under features, the light is 40 Lumens.

Question:

Hello, I would like to get two of these, one for either side of my front door. Would they both work or would the light from one interfere with the sensor on the other? Thank you
By Chloe on Nov 18,2018

Answer:

It's very unlikely to interfere as the lux sensor (day or night) is in the panel at the top of the light and these lights are downlighters. The only reason you could have a problem would be if the light bounced off something and back on to the top.

Question:

Would the light emitted be good enough to illuminate a house name plaque?
By Claire on Sep 12,2018

Answer:

We have had customers using this light for name/numbers plaque but the light points down not inwards. You may have to move the light and/or plaque to get the best results. Spotlights are also worth considering.

The LED colour temperature is 4000K making it a warm white light output.

Question:

Hi, can you tell me whether the lens is clear or diffused? I bought some 18 months ago with clear lens and I want the new ones to match, thanks
By David on Apr 9,2018

Answer:

Please drop us an email or call with your details so we can check your order. To answer the question, the Truro has always had a diffuser and never had a clear lens. 

Question:

I am looking for a solar light to sit above our house name plate so people can see the house name from the road (5m) away. Would this be suitable? How wide is the light beam?
By Fiona Austin on Jan 30,2018

Answer:

The Truro should do this job fine, it'll light something up to approx 30cm across if there's a 5 - 10 cm gap between the sign and the installation of the light.

Question:

These units come supplied with a film covering the solar panel. Should this be removed or left in situ? Thanks
By Andrew on Oct 27,2017

Answer:

Please remove the film, this just to protect the panel in transit. 

Question:

Is is possible to turn off the light without removing the diffuser? With the evenings getting darker I would like the light to remain on, but when I retire to bed to turn it off. If this facility is not available with the Truro, is it on any of your other solar wall lights? Thanks
By Andrew Bell on Aug 29,2017

Answer:

The diffuser is very easy to remove to get access to the switch. Non of our wall lights have external switches. Our floodlight RC is a remote control light. Maybe of a light with a PIR (motion sensor) would suit?  The Truro Security Light could suit your needs.

Question:

I need a downlighter to illuminate our house sign which is mounted on an east facing wall. Does the Truro produce sufficient light for this purpose or can it be fitted with more powerful LEDs? I would only need it to light up for six or so hours. If it is not powerful enough can you suggest any other light in your range?

Answer:

This entirely depends on exactly how much direct sunlight it is getting and for how long. It is a difficult question to answer. The time listed on the website is based on an ideal location. If the location is less than ideal it will run for less time than the listed.

I'm looking for warm white light only and these came up when I typed warm white into your search box. Two questions: 1. Are they? And 2. What other solar lights on your site are warm white? Can't stand cold light at all! Thanks.
