Wanco’s Programmable Solar Light Towers feature outstanding power efficiency for reliable performance and long runtime. Ultra-bright LED lights can be individually programmed for automatic operation and desired brightness from 10 to 100 percent. A 7‑inch full-color touchscreen controller enables highly customizable autonomous operation and makes manual operation easy.
Power Efficient
Wanco’s Programmable Solar Light Towers feature unprecedented power-efficiency that ensures longer runtimes with the brightest illumination and the least energy consumption. Batteries provide power and an automated solar-based charging system keeps the batteries charged. The system’s state-of-the-art Smart MPPT controller, together with monocrystalline half-cut cell solar panels, provides up to 30% more charging capacity, maximizing every available amp for optimal charging efficiency.
Programmable
Exceptional programmability provides you with the flexibility and versatility of fully automated operation or manual control. You can press a button to turn all the lights on or off at once, or set one or more programs to run automatically. Program the lights to turn on and off individually or all together. Auto-on and -off settings include time of day, ambient light and other options. For even greater autonomy, automatic operation can be scheduled for specific days or calendar dates.
Functional
Four high-efficiency, high-output, dimmable light fixtures top the 24-foot telescoping tower. The tower rotates nearly 360 degrees without lowering the lights, which operate at any height. The lights can be individually aimed without the use of tools, and they stay where you point them. The tower remains vertical at all times, and the trailer’s low center of gravity keeps the tower stable.

Wanco’s Programmable Solar Light Towers provide you with the flexibility and versatility of fully automated operation or manual control. Set programs to run automatically, or turn lights on and off with a single “Quick Select” button.
Lights can be individually programmed for manual or automatic operation and any of ten brightness levels. Configure each light individually or all four together with the 7‑inch touchscreen controller.
Controller Main Screen
Status at a glance
View light status on the controller’s Main Screen, including current and future on/off states and brightness for each light.
Quick and easy on/off control
Quick Buttons on the Main Screen turn all lights on (from dusk to dawn) and off (instantly).
Multiple security levels
Secure the lights from changes with multiple logins, or allow unrestricted access by disabling passwords altogether.
System settings
View system information and manage settings such as time and date, light tower location and connected devices.
Advanced Light Settings
Manual or automatic
Select the best operating mode for your application to turn lights on and off with manual, timer and sensor control.
Select lights to control
Link all lights for simultaneous operation or unlink them for controlling just one — or two, or three in any combination.
Ten brightness levels from 10 to 100%
Lights are dimmable for every “on” condition, whether setting a program or switching lights on manually. Set brightness independently for each light.
Multiple independent programs
Create up to three separate programs, which can be independently configured and activated.
Dusk-to-dawn default
Automatic operation is set for dusk to dawn by default. The system uses a photocell sensor to trigger the lights.
Flexible scheduling
Choose to run a program every day or on selected days. The built-in calendars let you set start and end dates for each program, or choose specific dates you want it to run.
Lights on… lights off
Advanced settings give you options for automatically turning on the lights at a specific time of day, at sunset, from 15 minutes to 2 hours after dusk, or based on motion detection*.
Similar settings automatically turn the lights off. Mix and match on and off settings as needed.
*Motion detection requires installation of optional equipment.
Power Management
- True battery state-of-charge
- Convenient time-remaining feature
- Remote power monitoring & management
- Bluetooth app for local remote control
- Extensive performance history
Wanco’s Programmable Solar Light Towers offer a number of choices for power system monitoring and management, with both local and remote options ranging from simple to sophisticated.
A full-featured mobile app uses a Bluetooth connection for enhanced local power management. Two optional power management packages, Basic and Deluxe, provide remote power monitoring and control through a cloud-based service using cellular access.
Local Monitoring & Control
Battery monitor
A battery monitor on the control panel is standard. It gives local access for viewing the most useful power information in real-time.
Power controller
An advanced touchscreen controller is an optional upgrade. It provides access to all power performance information and power system controls.
Remote Monitoring & Control
Deluxe power management
The Deluxe package* provides a real-time look at power performance, allowing you to monitor, manage and optimize the power system remotely. Use live and historical data to make informed decisions and adjust the light tower operation. Set alerts and alarms to catch potential issues early. Toggle power to the lights on and off remotely when necessary. This package is an optional upgrade.
Basic power management
The Basic package* provides a snapshot view of the same power data and performance history as the Deluxe package provides. The system connects briefly and uploads data to the cloud at 15-minute intervals. The Basic package does not provide live data or on/off control of the lights. This package is an optional upgrade.
Bluetooth app
The remote power management app for smartphones provides the same functions as the Deluxe package. Use it to connect remotely within Bluetooth range of the light tower. The app is free and can be downloaded from your phone’s app store.
*Deluxe and Basic packages each include 5-year cellular service.
