FlagPole Buddy Solar LED Flagpole Light — Solar-Powered, Battery-Backed Topper for 12'/16'/22' Poles

The FlagPole Buddy Solar Powered LED Flagpole Light is a battery-backed, wire-free topper that charges by day and automatically lights your flag at night.

This compact, weather-ready fixture screws onto the top of most flagpoles to deliver consistent LED illumination without running cables or hiring an electrician. Designed to fit FlagPole Buddy 12', 16' and 22' poles and most poles with a 1/2"-13 tpi thread, the unit keeps your flag visible after dark using a photovoltaic cell and internal rechargeable battery. A push-button on/off lets you disable the unit for storage or transport, and an optional FPB End Plug Adapter is available where needed for fiberglass poles.

How does the solar charging and automatic lighting work?

Sunlight powers the small photovoltaic panel on the top of the unit, which charges the internal rechargeable battery during daytime hours. When ambient light drops below a threshold, the LED driver automatically switches the lamp on for evening illumination. The system is self-contained, so there are no external wires or power connections to manage.

• Top-mounted solar cell charges the internal battery in daylight
• Light sensor enables automatic dusk-to-dawn operation
• Internal battery stores power for night-time use

Will this fit my flagpole and how do I install it?

Installation is a simple threaded mount: the light screws onto poles that accept a 1/2"-13 tpi thread and directly fits FlagPole Buddy 12', 16' and 22' models. For many fiberglass poles an FPB End Plug Adapter is required to create the correct mounting surface. A single push-button provides an on/off function for storage or when you need to disable the unit temporarily.

• Compatible with FlagPole Buddy 12', 16' and 22' poles
• Works with most poles using 1/2"-13 tpi threads
• FPB End Plug Adapter required for many fiberglass poles
• Push-button on/off for easy storage or transport

How bright and durable is the LED light for night visibility?

The integrated LEDs provide focused illumination designed to highlight a flag without over-lighting the surrounding area. Housed in a weather-resistant casing, the unit is built to stand up to outdoor exposure and seasonal temperature changes. While not intended as area floodlighting, it delivers reliable flag-focused light for residential and small commercial settings.

• LEDs produce steady, flag-focused light
• Weather-resistant housing for outdoor durability
• Engineered for routine night-time visibility, not wide-area illumination

What maintenance does the solar flagpole light require?

Maintenance is minimal: keep the solar panel free of dirt and debris to ensure efficient charging and check the push-button before storing for winter. If the pole is in a shaded location, occasional manual charging or repositioning of the pole for sunlight exposure may be necessary. Replace the rechargeable cell beyond its service life to restore full runtime.

• Wipe panel clean periodically to maintain charging efficiency
• Use push-button to turn off unit during long-term storage
• Replace internal battery when end-of-life reduces nighttime runtime

Who is this for? The FlagPole Buddy Solar Powered LED Flagpole Light is ideal for homeowners, small businesses, and property managers who want a tidy, no-wires solution to keep their flag visible after dark. It's especially useful for people with existing FlagPole Buddy poles or any pole accepting a 1/2"-13 tpi thread who prefer a low-maintenance, solar-powered option. If you have a fiberglass pole, plan to add the FPB End Plug Adapter to ensure a secure fit.
