WIRING
Thus we choose a 1 watt LED and sized the lithium ion batteries and solar panel to produce and store enough energy to
power the beacon. Keeping in mind that this LED beacon may not be exposed to sunlight continuously, we built in a 12 volt
vehicle charger option as well. The vehicle charger will bring the beacon to full charge in 2 hours.
MOUNTING
This LED light includes a permanent mounting system with through holes for the mounting base. Once attached, the
beacon can still be removed by twisting the beacon counter-clockwise off the base. This twist lock design allows operators
to remove the light for vehicle charging if necessary. However, if the light is mounted to a vehicle or other structure that is
exposed to the sun daily, operators can add an additional screw that locks out the twist lock function.
Built in to this LED beacon is a strong magnetic base which can be used instead of the permanent mounting base options.
Operators simply stick the beacon to any steel surface. This magnetic LED indicator light can be used on moving vehicles
at highway speeds.
MAINTENANCE
There are no serviceable parts inside the fixture. However, it is good practice to routinely clean and check the
fixture for proper function.
•Disconnect power running to the lamp and be sure the fixture is cool to the touch.
•Use a non-abrasive glass cleaning solution to clean the lens.
Note: It is not necessary to open the fixture and clean or touch the LED’s.
