- Does it need to be wired to house power?
- No. The solar cell charges the light, so it mounts without a power run. Place it where the panel gets several hours of direct sun.
- How bright is one LED bulb for security?
- It is enough to light a doorway or short path, not a wide driveway. For broad coverage, a multi-head floodlight is the better fit.
- Can I turn off the motion sensor?
- The sensors control activation, so check the fixture's settings for a dusk-only or always-on mode. Most users run it in motion mode to save charge.
- Is it dimmable with a normal dimmer switch?
- Dimmability depends on the LED bulb and control used. Since the fixture is solar-powered, dimming is handled at the fixture rather than a wall switch.
- Where should I mount it for best charging?
- On a south- or west-facing wall with clear sky above the panel. Shade from eaves, trees or a porch roof will cut charging time.
