The U.S. Code states that: "It is the universal custom to display the flag only from sunrise to sunset on buildings and on stationary flag staffs in the open. However, when a patriotic effect is desired, the flag may be displayed twenty-four hours a day if properly illuminated during the hours of darkness." This, heavy duty, commercial grade, multi-purpose floodlight system is made by Solar Illuminations. It's totally unique as this system comprises of 4 floodlight fixtures each containing 120 hyper-bright SMD type LED's (made by Cree®) which provide a light output of 960 Lumens, each fixture (equal to about 200 watts, each fixture). Fully automatic activation (on at dusk and off at dawn). For wall mounting or ground mounting. Supplied with a very powerful 120 watt solar panel to ensure maximum efficiency and optimum performance. The solar cell panel can be situated next to the flag pole or at some distance away. A battery box is supplied to facilitate the sealed batteries which are recharged daily via the solar panel. While this system's ultimate design was for sign lighting and billboard lighting it has other purposes too. It's great for lighting up a group of flag poles, within close proximity of each other so there is no longer the need to lower your flag at dusk any more. Perfect for use where electricity is unavailable. Quick and easy permanent installation. As the solar panel can be located some distance away, this enable better sunlight capture when using the fixtures in shady areas. Each of these four solar floodlights incorporate a main light body consisting of 120 hyper-bright SMD/LED bulbs. That's a total of 480 hyper-bright SMD/LED's. Each floodlight offers angle/tilt adjustment with the attached support bracket. This fixture can be directly fixed to a round post or round pole using our optional clamp attachment kit (product code FL12). Each fixture provides an output equal to that of about 200 watts of incandescent light. The LED's typically last for 22 years so there are no bulb changes. Each of these floodlight fixtures can light up a flag pole of up to approximately 40' high. Naturally, the darker the location the more effective and noticeable the illumination will be. Color of fixture is black. Color of other parts of the system are gray. Color of light output is white.

The battery box has a hinged lid which is lockable (padlock not included).
The battery box has an integral battery shelf and also houses the PCB controller.
Approx. 17' of pre-wired connection cable is supplied and attached to the battery box for connection to the solar panel.
The battery box also has a receptacle (socket) for each floodlight fixture to be connected.
High quality, aluminum framed, powerful 120 watt solar panel fitted with approximately 18" of cable/cord with weatherproof connecter which connects directly to the battery box with approx. 17' of cable.
A powerful 120 Watt solar panel is included which can be directly mounted if required.
Solar panels are typically supplied in a dual format (2 x 60w = 120w) and can be framed together as one.
Two special triangular mounting frames are included to allow the solar panel to attach to a vertical or horizontal surface with two hole pre-drilled into each section of the frame.
The weather resistant floodlight has approx. 48' of pre-wired cable which is pre-plugged ready for easy connection to the battery box.

Black colored finish of floodlight.
Easy to install almost anywhere.
The floodlight fixture is supplied with a U shape mounting bracket which will also allow for vertical adjustment of the light beam spread.
Floodlight bracket has 3 holes to allow fixing using screws or bolts (not included).
As this product has a wide variety of uses and can be used for many different applications, you may find it necessary to use other parts, that are not included, to aid installation for your particular situation. For example, you may wish to fix the fixture or solar panel to a pole (we do not include a pole) and therefore you will need to provide the necessary adaption to enable fixing to a pole and the pole itself. Another example, you may wish to bolt the fixture to the ground. You would then need a smooth level surface in place, such as concrete or a concrete slab. You will then need to fix the solar panel nearby and you may wish to make a bracket for the solar panel or some other device to enable its normal operation.
For less straight forward or unusual installations you may need to use your own fixings to accommodate the solar panel and/or the floodlight.
Should provide illumination of an open area up to approx. 40' x 40' and maybe beyond to the extent of a 200 watt light fixture.
Should be suitable for illuminating a sign up to approximately 36' x 12' or maybe larger depending upon location of fixture and/or sign to the extent of what 4 x 200 watt output light fixtures can provide.
For attaching this fixture directly to a round post, round pole or flag pole we recommend using our clamp attachment kit (product code FL12).
May be wall mounted, possibly fixed to a pole or post or possibly to the ground to a flat, firm surface.
For uplighting from the ground, for sign lighting or flag pole lighting, we recommend fixing to a small, short wooden post (not included).

This product is defined as a 'special order' and our special order terms apply.
Time length of night time illumination is estimated and subject to various factors including (but not limited to) geographic location, seasons, temperature, weather conditions & location of product etc.
Shorter illumination time due to one or more of the above factors does not define the fixture as being defective or define the fixture as being advertised incorrectly.
We advertise and supply our solar lights to customers all over the world are therefore, naturally, we are unable to guarantee the nightly illumination time as it can vary and any time stated is quoted as 'up to' x amount hours.
Minor errors & omissions must be accepted.
Although unlikely, we reserve the right to supply this product with any minor alterations or minor changes to the specifications (shown above by text description or by photographs) due to different supplies or product batches received, incorporating such product changes made by the manufacturer, without further notice.
Descriptions, specifications and photographs are updated regularly but may not be current when minor changes to a product have only recently been made.
All solar lights must be used in a completely dark location at night time otherwise they may not illuminate. Nearby strong lighting sources or ambient lighting may affect the operation of a solar light. This does not define the fixture as being defective.
