Thanks for the review! We hope you have an amazing time in the mountains this weekend and get a chance to put your LightRanger portable solar panel to the test. We’d love to hear what you think after your trip.
Thank you for your feedback

“The solar panel works but the light drains the battery faster than the solar panel can supply power, given we haven’t had a lot of sun light, I willing to overlook that for now and test when we have some sunny days.
Number two issue … I have a motion sensor for the light but there is no option to use the solar panel and the motion light at the same time … someone should read this for when you make the upgraded model. I even purchased a splitter with a single male connector and two female connectors. Still won’t work. Begs asking why have a motion sensor and a solar panel if they cannot work together? Having the motion sensor allows it to go off if someone enters your space. Having a solar panel should recharge the light after a night of raccoons and other critters running through the zone. But they do not seem to work well with one another. You need to create a fix for this, and when you do, I’ll be waiting for you to send it to me!”
Hi David
Thank you for sharing your feedback, we greatly appreciate it! I completely understand what you're trying to accomplish, and your use case makes sense.
The LightRanger 2000 does support both the Motion Sensor and solar charging. The Motion Sensor plugs directly into the LightRanger's USB-C port, and the sensor has an additional USB-C connection that can be used for another device.
If you are trying to run the solar panel through the Motion Sensor while the Motion Sensor is connected to the LightRanger, that is the setup I would recommend rather than using a separate USB-C splitter.
If you're already connecting the solar panel through the Motion Sensor and it still isn't charging while the sensor is active, please let me know you can contact us at cs@devosbrands.com

“Panel works as advertised and charged the light during daytime hours. I think it might be nice if the fit atop the light was a bit more secure but it hasnt falled off and worked as it should.”
Hi Matthew
Thank you for the great feedback! We’re glad to hear the solar panel worked as advertised and kept your light charged throughout the day. We also appreciate your suggestion about making the fit on top of the light more secure. Even though it stayed in place for you, that’s a helpful suggestion that we’ll be sure to pass along to our team. Thanks for choosing Devos and for taking the time to share your experience!
Devos Outdoor Team!
