By taking a few moments to browse through this booklet, you will become familiar with the versatility
of your lantern, and be able to maximise its operating function.
Operating Principle
The solar module of the lantern converts sunlight to an electrical current that is used to charge the
battery. The battery provides power to operate the lantern at night.
The asher unit has very low current requirements. A microprocessor drives an ultra bright LED
through a through a DC/DC converter, which enables the LED’s to operate within the manufacturer’s
specications. The battery is protected from over-charging within the circuit to ensure maximum battery
life.
On darkness, the microprocessor will initiate a program check and after approximately 1 minute begin
ashing to the set code.
