This solar batten light is engineered to provide reliable off-grid illumination for covered and semi-enclosed outdoor environments, finished in grey and constructed from powder-coated die cast aluminium with anti-corrosion treatment, polycarbonate housing, and anti-UV coating to ensure long-term durability under prolonged environmental exposure. The luminaire integrates a high-efficiency LED light source delivering selectable luminous outputs of 400lm, 800lm (default), and 1200lm, with a high lumen efficacy of 200lm/W, enabling effective area illumination while maintaining low energy demand. Dual selectable colour temperatures of 3000K and 6000K allow adaptation of the light output to suit different visual comfort requirements and functional lighting applications.
The lighting system incorporates an intelligent microwave motion sensor to dynamically modulate output based on detected movement, improving both energy efficiency and site security. Three programmable operating profiles are available to suit varying operational requirements, including staged dimming through the night, fixed-duration high-output operation, and continuous illumination from dusk until dawn. These control strategies ensure the luminaire can be optimised for extended operational autonomy while maintaining adequate illuminance levels for pedestrian movement, vehicle access, and sheltered working areas.
Energy autonomy is supported by a high-performance bifacial monocrystalline 30W solar panel (separate panel) coupled with a long-life LiFePO4 12.8V 12Ah battery, providing stable charge-discharge performance and enhanced cycle life under frequent cycling conditions. The integrated energy system is capable of achieving 7+ nights of autonomy under typical operating conditions and is designed to recharge within 5-7 hours by direct sunlight, enabling dependable operation in variable weather environments. The remote panel configuration allows flexible positioning to maximise solar exposure, improving overall system efficiency in shaded or partially covered installations.
Mechanically, the luminaire measures 379mm x 137mm x 92mm, with the remote solar panel measuring 630mm x 293mm x 123mm, forming a compact yet robust assembly suitable for mounting beneath shelters and structural overhangs. The enclosure achieves an ingress protection rating of IP65 (fully weatherproof) and an impact resistance rating of IK10 (impact and vandal resistant), ensuring suitability for public and semi-public environments where resistance to environmental ingress and mechanical abuse is essential. With a total system mass of 4kg, a connection lead of 3000m, and a comprehensive 5-year warranty (battery included), this solar batten light presents a dependable, low-maintenance lighting solution for bus shelters, car shelters, shipping containers, sheds, garages, gazebos, barns, stables, and similar covered outdoor applications.
