Give Old Glory the spotlight she deserves.
The TelePatriot™ 1500 is our next step up in solar flagpole illumination, combining 30 oversized high-output LEDs, six strategically angled lighting panels, precision optics, a large monocrystalline solar collection surface and intelligent MPPT solar technology.
The result: a conservatively rated 1,500 lumens of brilliant, wide-area flag illumination.
No wiring. No trenching. No electrical bill. No timer to program every season. Just intelligent solar-powered illumination that automatically charges by day and lights your flag after dark.
30 LEDs. 1,500 Lumens. Yes, You Read That Correctly.
When shopping for solar lights, it’s easy to assume: More LEDs = More Light. But LED count alone doesn’t tell you how bright a fixture is.
Our popular TelePatriot™ 800 uses an array of 120 LEDs to produce 800 lumens. The premium TelePatriot™ 1500 takes a completely different approach. Instead of using a larger quantity of smaller LEDs, it uses just 30 oversized high-output LEDs strategically positioned across six angled optical lighting panels to deliver 1,500 lumens.
That’s 75% fewer LED diodes while producing 87.5% more rated light output than our 800-lumen model.
DON’T JUST COUNT LEDs. COUNT THE LUMENS.
Fewer Diodes. More Output. Smarter Design.
Packing a fixture with more individual LEDs isn’t necessarily the only way to produce more light. Its 30 oversized high-output LEDs generate substantially greater total rated illumination than the 120-LED array used in our TelePatriot 800.
And using 30 LEDs instead of 120 means something else: 90 fewer individual LED diodes in the lighting array. That’s a simpler high-output architecture with fewer individual LED components that could potentially fail over the service life of the fixture.
Wider Light Where Your Flag Actually Flies
A flag is constantly moving. It waves. It changes direction. It extends several feet away from the pole. Yet many traditional solar flagpole lights concentrate much of their illumination almost directly underneath themselves.
TelePatriot™ 1500 approaches the problem differently. Its unique hexagonal design incorporates 6 angled lighting panels — each containing five oversized high-output LEDs positioned to throw illumination outward as well as downward.
Instead of creating only a concentrated pool of light underneath the fixture, this design creates a much broader illumination zone around the top of the flagpole. That matters because your flag isn’t hanging directly underneath your solar light — it’s flying beside it.
MPPT Smart Solar Charging
TelePatriot™ 1500 incorporates MPPT technology — Maximum Power Point Tracking. Rather than relying solely on a basic solar charging arrangement, MPPT technology is designed to optimize the power collected from the solar array as available sunlight changes.
The broad hexagonal upper surface is covered extensively with monocrystalline solar cells, making productive use of the fixture’s large upper surface to capture sunlight throughout the day and convert it into stored energy for nighttime illumination.
Automatic Dusk-to-Dawn Operation
You don’t have to remember to turn it on. Once properly installed, activated and charged, TelePatriot™ 1500 is designed to handle everyday operation automatically.
-
During the day — The solar array collects available sunlight and charges the internal battery.
-
After dark — The light sensor recognizes the reduction in ambient light and automatically activates the LEDs.
-
The next morning — The light switches off and begins charging again.
SET IT. FORGET IT. LET OLD GLORY SHINE.
No Wires. No Trenches. No Electrician.
TelePatriot™ 1500 eliminates the need for a dedicated electrical connection. Install it at the top of a compatible flagpole, give it proper exposure to sunlight and let the sun provide the energy.
- No underground wiring
- No dedicated electrical circuit
- No electrical operating cost

1,500 Lumens — Conservatively Rated by Atlantic Flagpole
We’d rather set realistic expectations than chase the biggest number we can put on a box. The underlying lighting platform is marketed at output levels reaching 2,000 lumens, but we’ve chosen to position the TelePatriot™ 1500 at a more conservative 1,500 lumens.
Because at Atlantic Flagpole, we’d rather have your reaction be “Wow. That’s bright.” than wonder why a product didn’t live up to an inflated number.
Simple Installation
-
Charge — Before initial installation, allow the solar light to receive a full charge in direct sunlight.
-
Activate — Press the activation button according to the included instructions and verify operation by covering the solar panel to simulate darkness.
-
Install — Mount the TelePatriot™ 1500 at the top of your compatible flagpole underneath the ball topper.
-
Raise Your Flag — That’s it. The light automatically charges during daylight and activates after dark.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why does the TelePatriot 1500 have only 30 LEDs?
Because LED count isn’t the same thing as light output. Rather than using a large number of smaller LEDs, TelePatriot 1500 uses 30 oversized high-output LEDs arranged across six optical panels. Our TelePatriot 800 uses 120 LEDs and is rated at 800 lumens. The TelePatriot 1500 uses only 30 LEDs yet is conservatively rated at 1,500 lumens. That’s why we encourage customers to compare lumens and lighting architecture, not LED count alone.
Does fewer LEDs mean there’s less to go wrong?
The TelePatriot 1500’s 30-LED architecture contains 90 fewer individual LED diodes than our 120-LED TelePatriot 800 array. Fewer individual diodes means fewer individual LED components that could potentially experience a component-level failure. Actual product longevity depends on the entire system, including LEDs, battery, electronics, environmental conditions and use, so LED count alone should not be interpreted as a guarantee of service life.
Is the TelePatriot 1500 better than the TelePatriot 800?
They’re designed for different customers. The TelePatriot 800 remains an excellent everyday solar flagpole light. The TelePatriot 1500 is the premium step-up option for customers who prioritize greater illumination, wider light distribution and more advanced solar and optical technology.
How bright is 1,500 lumens?
It’s 87.5% more rated light output than our 800-lumen TelePatriot 800, making the 1500 an excellent choice when stronger flag illumination is the priority.
Does it require electricity?
No. TelePatriot 1500 is solar powered and does not require a dedicated household electrical connection.
Do I have to turn it on every night?
No. Once properly activated and installed, its light-sensing system is designed to automatically illuminate after dark and switch off when daylight returns.
Will it work on cloudy days?
The solar array can collect energy under varying daylight conditions, and its MPPT charging technology is designed to optimize available solar input. However, solar performance naturally depends on available sunlight. Extended cloud cover, shade, winter conditions, snow covering the solar panels and shorter daylight hours can reduce available charging energy and nighttime operating duration.
Is it waterproof?
The fixture carries an IP67 weather-protection rating and is designed for outdoor exposure.
Will it work with my flagpole?
TelePatriot 1500 is designed as a top-mounted flagpole light. Compatibility depends on the dimensions and topper configuration of the specific flagpole. For Atlantic Flagpole customers, contact us if you’re uncertain about compatibility before ordering.
Your Flag Shouldn’t Disappear At Sunset.
During the day, Old Glory commands attention. The colors. The movement. The symbolism. Then the sun goes down. Without proper illumination, that beautiful flag can virtually disappear into the darkness.
With the TelePatriot™ 1500, the sun that illuminated your flag all day provides the energy to help illuminate it after dark.
30 OVERSIZED LEDs. 1,500 LUMENS. 6 ANGLED OPTICAL PANELS. ONE BEAUTIFULLY ILLUMINATED AMERICAN FLAG.
LIGHT THE FLAG. HONOR THE SYMBOL.™
Important performance note: Solar-light performance varies based on geographic location, season, daily solar exposure, shade, weather, battery state of charge, solar-panel cleanliness and other environmental conditions. For best performance, install the fixture where its solar collection surface receives strong direct sunlight.
