Light Function
Guide- and atmospheric light.
During daylight the solar energy gets stored on a battery through solar cells. Bike Sun has PIR-sensors that capture movement in the surroundings, to swith on light or fade up/down. At dusk the light will turn on (via a preset clock) and remain active evening and night, according to the charged energy and programming at the specific location. Bike Sun cleverly optimizes its output: the sensors will turn up the light when a pedestrian or bicyclist steps closer to the Bike, and when not activated, will be on a lower light level. The glare free light comes from the the top and emits light downwards in two V-shapes on the ground and the inner part of the bollard legs..

Maintenance
Maintenance-free, except for change of battery. Keep top and sides with solarcells free of dirt.​
