5W solar flood light – IP66 waterproof | 12Hr backup | Remote

Overview

The 5W Solar Flood Light (Model 1336) is a compact, self-sufficient outdoor lighting solution designed for residential and semi-commercial applications across India. Powered entirely by solar energy, this light integrates a 6V 6W solar panel, a 3.2V 6AH rechargeable battery, and a cool white LED module into a single weatherproof unit. With a charging time of 6–8 hours and a lighting duration of up to 12 hours, it is engineered to deliver reliable night-time illumination without drawing a single unit from the grid. Whether you need garden lighting in a Delhi colony, gate lighting for a farmhouse in Haryana, or pathway lighting in a rural cooperative housing society, this 5W solar flood light handles each application without any wiring or electrical infrastructure.

LED Performance & Light Output

The 5W LED module delivers cool white illumination with high luminous efficacy, making it well-suited for focused area lighting across entrances, pathways, small parking spots, and garden corners. Cool white light (approximately 6000–6500K colour temperature) is widely preferred for outdoor security and visibility in Indian residential zones, as it closely mimics natural daylight and improves contrast in low-visibility environments. The LED chips are surface-mounted for uniform beam spread, and the reflective housing ensures maximum forward projection with minimal light wastage. For its 5W draw, the output is sufficient to light a compact outdoor area effectively throughout the night.

Battery – 3.2V 6AH Capacity & Backup

The 1336 model uses a 3.2V 6AH battery, delivering a backup of up to 12 hours on a single charge. This battery chemistry offers stable voltage discharge throughout the night, meaning brightness remains consistent from dusk until well past midnight. Unlike older lead-acid batteries commonly found in budget outdoor lights, this battery is lightweight, maintenance-free, and designed for repeated deep-cycle use across hundreds of charge cycles. For homeowners in areas with frequent power cuts — particularly in tier-2 and tier-3 cities and rural India — a 12-hour backup means the light runs reliably every single night, regardless of grid availability.

Body Build & Weatherproofing

The 1336 model carries an IP66 waterproof and dustproof rating. IP66 certification means the unit is fully protected against powerful water jets from any direction and completely sealed against dust ingress — well beyond the IP65 found on many competing budget lights. This makes the 5W solar flood light suitable for year-round outdoor installation across India’s diverse climate zones, including the coastal humidity of Mumbai, the heavy monsoon downpours of Kerala, the dust storms of Rajasthan, and the extreme heat of central India. The compact body dimensions of 35 × 25 × 10 CM keep the unit lightweight and easy to mount on walls, gate pillars, or boundary posts.

Smart Controls & Operating Modes

The light comes with a remote control, giving users the ability to adjust brightness levels and operating modes without physically accessing the unit. Remote functionality includes an Auto mode, On/Off toggle, timed modes (3H, 5H, 8H), Half light (50% brightness), and Full light (100% brightness). Auto mode activates at 100% for the first 20 minutes after dusk, then steps down to 70% for 4.5 hours, and further to 30% for the remaining hours — intelligently conserving battery while maintaining ambient illumination through the night. This programmable behaviour makes the 5W solar flood light a true set-and-forget solution for gates, gardens, and pathways in housing societies and individual bungalows alike.

Solar Panel & Charging Efficiency

The unit includes a 6V 6W solar panel that harvests sunlight during the day and channels energy into the battery via an integrated charge controller. A charging window of 6–8 hours of direct sunlight is sufficient to fully replenish the 6AH battery. In most parts of India, including the Indo-Gangetic plains, Deccan Plateau, and peninsular coastal regions, daily solar irradiance consistently exceeds this threshold for at least eight to nine months of the year. The panel is mounted separately, connected via a dedicated cable, allowing the user to position it at the most sun-exposed angle on a roof, parapet, or wall bracket — independent of where the flood light itself is mounted.

Installation & Mounting

No electrical wiring, conduit work, or licensed electrician is required for installation. The solar panel and flood light are connected via a plug-and-socket cable, and both can be wall-mounted using the included hardware. The compact dimensions (35 × 25 × 10 CM) make the 1336 easy to handle and position even in tight spaces such as narrow compound walls, gate columns, or low-clearance eaves. Once mounted and the cable connected, the light activates automatically at dusk with no further intervention. This off-grid, no-wiring nature makes it particularly valuable for rural properties, farmhouses, construction-phase plots, temporary outdoor setups, and any location where running electrical cables is impractical or cost-prohibitive.
