VIKARO 30W Solar Sensor Light
Overview
This 30 W solar-powered sensor light is a clean, cable-free lighting solution for outdoor walls, driveways, patios and garden perimeters. It combines a high-output LED array with solar charging, an integrated motion sensor and daylight detection — making it an effective security and convenience light for South African homes and estates.
Benefits
- Completely solar-powered — no grid power required, reducing electricity bills and simplifying installation.
- Built-in motion sensor and dusk-to-dawn mode — automatically illuminates upon movement or when ambient light is low.
- 30W LED output delivers strong light for driveways, gate entrances, pathways and outdoor living areas.
- Weather-resistant construction (e.g., rated around IP65) suitable for exterior South African conditions.
- Minimal running costs and simple installation — ideal for retrofitting to existing homes, estates or rental properties where electrician access is limited.

Recommended Applications
- Entrance driveways and gate posts — automatic sensor illumination when vehicles or visitors approach.
- Pathways, garden edges and outdoor walk-ways — enhances safety and visibility without extra wiring.
- Rental properties, estates and security zones — solar power ensures lighting even during load-shedding or grid outage periods.
- Remote structures such as garden sheds, garages or outbuildings where running mains power is inconvenient.
Installation Notes
- Install the unit in a location with strong sunlight during the day (ideally 4-6 hours direct sunlight) for optimal battery charging.
- Mount at a height between 2.5 m to 4 m for best motion detection and coverage of the desired area.
- Clean the solar panel surface periodically to ensure efficient charging and maintain brightness.
- Avoid large overhanging structures casting shadows over the panel during day; angle the panel if possible towards the sun.
- Test the motion sensor and light modes at night after installation to ensure correct detection and coverage area.
