The GenLight 108LED model will last the entire night regardless of location and weather.  While the GenLight 54LED has a slightly smaller battery bank, it will still last 6-10 hours each night

3) How do I install my GenLight?

All of the lights in Silicon Solar’s GenLight series are plug-and-play simple, and can be installed by anyone in less than 15 minutes.  Simply mount the lighting fixture to any pole, rock, roof, wall, or other hard surface, and mount the high efficiency panel up to 25 feet away from the light fixture.  The panel then plugs directly into the light fixture.   Purchasing a mounting bracket for the panel is optional, but recommended to ensure secure installation and optimal exposure to direct sunlight.

PLEASE NOTE: You must charge the battery in the “ON” position of the fixture and allow the GenLight 108 to charge in direct sunlight for 2-3 days before initial use. Make sure you switch the fixture to OFF each night and back to ON in the morning while charging the battery for the first time. This will allow the battery to fully charge and maximize the longevity of the battery.
