FAQs
Can I leave this tree outside in the rain?
Yes, the battery box is IP44-rated, meaning it is protected against water splashes from any direction, making it suitable for outdoor use.
How long do the batteries last?
Battery life varies based on the light setting and battery quality, but the built-in 6/18-hour timer is designed to extend longevity by preventing the unit from running unnecessarily.
Can I replace the individual LEDs if one breaks?
The LEDs are integrated into the structure for durability and weather resistance and are not designed to be replaced individually.
Does the tree come with batteries included?
No, the tree requires 3 x AA batteries which must be purchased separately.
How tall is the tree?
The tree stands at a height of 1.2 meters.
Is the light colour adjustable?
The LEDs emit a warm white colour; while you cannot change the colour, you can change the light pattern using the 8-mode controller.
Troubleshooting
The LEDs are not lighting up
Verify that the batteries are inserted correctly according to polarity marks and ensure they are fresh.
Timer is not activating correctly
Ensure the light mode controller is not being manually overridden and that the battery level is sufficient to sustain the internal timer circuit.
Unit flickers or brightness is uneven
This is often a sign of low voltage. Replace all three batteries with a new, matching set.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
- Placement: Select a spot with firm soil or grass to accommodate the included ground spikes. Ensure the 1m wire can reach a sheltered or accessible area for the battery box.
- Installation: Push the spikes firmly into the ground until the base is stable. Avoid pushing directly on the branches when installing.
- Power: Insert 3 fresh AA batteries into the IP44 battery box. Ensure the seal is closed tightly to maintain water resistance.
- Maintenance: While the unit is IP44-rated, it is best practice to keep the battery box away from standing water. Clean the branches occasionally with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust or debris, which ensures the LED light output remains bright and clear. Remove batteries if storing the tree away for extended periods of time.
