Once installed, operation of the SL15
1 mile light requires no operator intervention.
The flash-characters are factory-set,
and the unit is supplied ready for immediate operation.
During daylight hours the solar module
will charge the battery, and the lantern will automatically begin operation
at dusk - once the ambient light threshold drops sufficiently.
The unit is sealed using an advanced
ultrasonic weld, enabling a rugged and completely waterproof seal capable of
prolonged and deep immersion.
Coupled with LED technology and a
highly efficient DC/DC converter, the lantern may provide over 30 days
continuous operation without sunlight.
Another benefit of the Sealite unit is
the tough polycarbonate lens, specifically designed for use with LEDs, and
incorporates an environment-friendly spike - deterring unwelcome bird life.
