Long lasting and rechargeable, we offer 2 types of batteries. Our newer solar post caps (2015 and later) typically use LiFeP04 3.2V AA solar batteries. The earlier model solar post caps use the NiCd 1.2V rechargeable batteries. To determine the battery required for your specific model of post cap, be sure to check the voltage of the battery currently in your post cap. Since the voltage is different, it is critical that you select the correct battery for your specific cap. Accidentally selecting the wrong voltage battery could destroy the electronics in the cap.
The NiCD Rechargeable battery is a 1.2V battery used in many of our older model solar post caps. It is critical that you select the correct battery based on voltage for your specific cap. Accidentally selecting the wrong voltage battery could destroy the electronics in the cap. To ensure you are purchasing the correct replacement battery, check the voltage on the battery currently in your cap.
