Leave the switch in the off position for two sunny days to ensure the battery is fully charged. Once fully charged switch to "ON" and your light will come on automatically at night. Rechargeable batteries become less efficient with repeated charge-discharge cycles and the battery capacity reduces. If you find that the battery appears to be less efficient or does not run for long we first suggest you try to boost charge it. Leave in the off position for three to five sunny days to allow the maximum charge to the battery. If after this boost charge your battery still does not perform to expectations you should replace it. Do not position under bright light as this will prevent the light switching on at night.

Description: Recreate a bit of aviation history with these Tiger Moth flights over Kent! Soar over the South East in this classic biplane for a wonderfully vintage aerial adventure in the skies above the Garden of England - it really is like stepping back in aviation time. Flight durations in the Tiger Moths from Headcorn vary with 15 20 30 45 and 60 minute lessons in these wonderful war birds. And of course no matter how long you're up there for all offer spectacular views of the beautiful Kent countryside where many a wartime flying ace would have trained in Moths too. You'll get a short pre-flight briefing where you'll find out the technical details of how to fly one of these incredible aircraft before it's out onto the apron to catch your first up-close glimpse of the vintage Moth you are about to take off in from Headcorn. You could be flying in G-ANMO or G-PWBE Tiger Moths as both are on the roster here at Headcorn. G-ANMO is the old girl of the fleet having been built for the RAF in 1934 flying under serial number K4259 until she was demobbed in 1953. After a sojourn to France for a while she came back to the UK in 1970. After a full restoration in 1987 she has been flying ever since resplendent in her post-war RAF trainer colour scheme. Still vintage but a veritable youngster compared to K4259 the very loveable Tiger Moth G-PWBE was built in 1959 and is one of the rare examples that were built post-World War Two by Lawrence Engineering Services in Australia so you could say this young old bird has travelled far in its lifetime! The astute amongst you will notice that this Moth has been slightly modified with a tail wheel and brakes so she is not limited to grass runways. Both planes are dual control (their background is flight training after all) so with you sitting up front right behind the propellor your instructor in the seat behind will be taking the lead for take-off and landing but there's the opportunity for you to pilot the biplane for a short period of time if you're feeling confident. Alternatively you can simply sit back and enjoy the uninterrupted views of the Kentish landscape unfolding beneath you from as you stare out form that open Tiger Moth cockpit. If your flight path takes you south of Headcorn you might very well spot landmarks such as Sissinghurst Castle and the Tenterden railway line as you fly. Our training packages and Tiger Moth flights in Kent are the perfect gift for classic aircraft fans history buffs and anyone with an interest in good old-fashioned flying.

Description: Gisborough Priory in Yorkshire is the subject of the latest addition to English Heritage’s acclaimed Red Guide series. This fully illustrated guidebook includes a complete tour and a history of the priory from its origins to the present day. New photographs maps and plans bring the history of the site to life. Today the ruined east wall of the priory church soars dramatically over the remains of the monastic precinct an impressive landmark in the landscape and a reminder of the priory’s former importance and scale. The priory was founded in about 1119 and richly endowed by the powerful Norman lord Robert I de Brus ancestor of the 12th-century King of the Scots Robert the Bruce. In 1289 the priory church was badly damaged by a fire that took hold during works to the roof and a major rebuilding project resulted in the church that survives in fragments today. Following the English defeat in the Battle of Bannockburn in 1314 Gisborough’s estates in the north of England were devastated and the priory’s debts built up. It took several decades of wool production by the community – and several generous gifts of money by rich patrons – for the priory’s financial fortunes to improve but by the time of its suppression by Henry VIII in 1539 Gisborough was the fourth richest religious house in Yorkshire. The splendidly carved Brus Cenotaph today on view in the parish church is testament to the priory’s wealth in the years before its closure. The prior who commissioned it in the early 16th century James Cockerell opposed Henry VIII’s Act of Supremacy and was removed from office later being executed for his resistance to the king’s break with Rome. In the wake of the Suppression many of the priory buildings were destroyed and the site was bought by the Chaloner family who in the 18th century created a garden in what had been part of the priory’s lands. The east end of the church became a landscape ornament and has continued to serve as an inspiration for artists antiquarians and admirers of the Picturesque.

Description: Take a Tudor castle that's as pretty as a picture add in some majestic birds of prey and you've got yourself a wonderful falconry experience at Herstmonceux Castle! This small but perfectly formed private collection of raptors are all impeccably trained - thanks to the passion and dedication of the head falconer. It's time for you to meet the team. Gerard has been fascinated by birds of prey since he was 10 years old and told his slightly concerned neighbours that he was building an aviary for a Golden Eagle in the garden. It might have been a childhood fantasy but his dream has now pretty much come true with Gerard and his partner Gemma raising caring for and training their feathered friends in a truly stunning setting in East Sussex Herstmonceux is brick-built 15th century Tudor castle with a moat. If you were asked to draw a classic English castle we reckon it'd look just like Herstmonceux and we can't think of a more appropriate background for a spot of falconry. With a day time aviary in the grounds the birds of prey just love their home as you find out when you fly them. Molly maybe small but this Kestrel has a very big personality and will take your breath away as she hovers just over your head. Halo is a very gentle barn owl that everyone adores. Flying slowly and softly towards you that silent wing beat is truly mesmerising. Meanwhile watching Bramble the Long-Eared Owl's twitching ears is endearingly comical whilst the wonderful relationship between falconer and Savannah the African Spotted Eagle Owl who has been with Gerard from the age of just two weeks is lovely to witness. Things get very impressive in the air with speedy Blade the Peregrine Falcon with an impressive one metre wingspan. Then there's Makeda the incredibly fast Lanner Falcon who is 'kite trained' which means she flies to the garnished lures up to 1500ft in the air above Herstmonceux. And watching how this is done is pretty outstanding but we won't spoil the surprise for you! Last but not least there are Ash and Cedar the cheeky Harris Hawk brothers that you can walk with (called hawking) around the idyllic woodlands and pastures around the castle as the Hawks follow you flying from tree to tree as you go. We are offering both half and full day falconry sessions at Herstmonceux Castle and for both experiences you'll learn to fly an Owl and walk with a Hawk for around two hours as well as seeing the falcons in flight. The full day then goes on to include more time with more of the residents of this superb castle setting. And you'll have time to explore the gardens enjoy a pub lunch or visit the tea rooms.

Description: Gliding in Kent has a very long and proud history with hundreds getting airborne to soar over of the Garden of England through the years. Located on the crest of the North Downs between Charing and Challock this lively and energetic club in Kent is a great place to learn the graceful art of gliding. This Kentish club is is in fact believed to have been the first gliding club to be formed in England on the 4th January 1930. Of course there was no time for leisurely pursuits such as gliding during the second world war but the enthusiasts got together again and reformed in 1956 with a renewed zest and vigour. The club has migrated all over the county but gliding in Kent finally settled at its current location in 1961 continuously developing and upgrading the facilities and fleet to remain up to date and modern. A very dynamic club it has an excellent club house and briefing room for budding glider pilots and for the 150 active members has seven twin seat gliders and around 30 BGA approved gliding instructors. There are 20 tug pilots on the books to keep the club gliding seven days a week in summer and every Wednesday and at weekends in winter too. With the mild climate of Kent it's perfectly possible to glide all year round. Many have said that gliding offers the best views of Kent and the coastline. In fact on a clear day you can look out of one side of the cockpit and see the Thames Estuary Whitstable and into Essex whilst from the other side of your glider it's the views of Ashford the Kent coastline and perhaps even France that'll have you utterly enthralled as you take a slow graceful 360 degree turn to take it all in. We are offering introductory taster sessions half days or one day courses in gliding at this Kent club. If you opt for the taster you will enjoy one aerotow flight being pulled into the air by a Piper Pawnee tug plane leaving you to soar high above the cliffs like a giant seagull and your ride back to the grass runway. The half day experience gives you two flights and lets you try both aerotow and winch launch methods. On the full day session you will become part of the Kent gliding family for a day. See the 'log cabin' that gets towed out to the launch area (and acts as mission control on flying days) meet the members have a chat and generally immerse yourself in the world of gliding. Your intensive day gives you an aerotow and three winch launches where you are hooked up to the cable the winch takes up the slack and you're away rumbling and bouncing over the grass for what feels like just milliseconds before you suddenly lift away and everything goes quiet.save for the sound of the wind whistling.

Plug it in using it's USB cable, or use remotely from the charger as a portable lamp with a just a few hours charge giving up to fifty hours use in some modes! On indoor mode, the cube has a simple on/off function, and will work in lit conditions, so that ambient light in or around the same space won't affect functionality.
