Solar Light Remote Control: What It Does and How to Use It
Our 1000W and 2000W solar street lights come with a remote control and batteries. Here is what a remote is for and how to get the most from it.
Why a remote helps
A solar light is mounted high on a pole or wall. A remote lets you set it up and switch it from the ground, without climbing a ladder each time.
Using the remote
Point the remote at the light, within a few metres, and press the button for the function you want. Different models have different buttons, so check the one in your box or ask us for a quick guide. Keep fresh batteries in the remote.

Tips
- Test the light at dusk after installation
- Keep the remote somewhere safe, such as with the person who manages the property
- Replace the remote batteries when the range drops
- If you lose the remote, the light still works on its own settings
The 3000W
The 3000W has its ON/OFF control on the unit next to the sensor, so you can switch it at the light. Ask us if you want a remote for your model.
Frequently asked questions
Is the remote included?
Yes on the 1000W and 2000W, with batteries. The 3000W has an ON/OFF button on the unit.
Does the light work without the remote?
Yes. It runs on its own once installed.
