All the beauty of an Aurora Post Cap with the easy installation and dependability of solar lighting: the Polaris Solar Deck Light features white LED bright bulbs behind designer glass windows, durable powder coat finish and rugged aluminum construction. Just install and enjoy – the Polaris turns on automatically at dusk and is designed to shine for up to 14 hours at a time. It all adds up to a classic look by day and warm illumination by night.

About solar lighting.
Using a solar panel to convert sunlight into electricity, solar lighting is preferred in situations where wiring is not practical or an option. It doesn’t produce as much light as low voltage and line voltage power, so it’s most often used to create accent lights. The LED bulbs are fueled by rechargeable NiCad (Nickel Cadmium) batteries which require sunlight, with charging and run times based on the season and location. For example, solar lights in northern climates will run 8-12 hours in the summer and 3-6 hours in the winter. The same lights in southern climates, with greater sun exposure, will run even longer.

All Aurora Post Caps and Lights can be customized to fit unique post sizes using the Aurora base adapter. See the chart below for sizing details on Polaris Solar Deck Lights.
