This light operates with three (3) AA Ni-MH batteries charged from the solar panel.
The batteries are included and installed in the light. If the voltage of the nickel-metal hydride
batteries run down to 3V, the light will not activate when the motion sensor is triggered. When
the solar panel has recharged the Ni-MH batteries, and voltage is above 3V, the light will return to
normal operation.
