FAQs

How long does the battery last on a full charge?

The lantern provides light for up to 6 hours on a full charge, depending on the amount of sunlight it received during the day.

Do I need to turn the lantern on and off manually?

No, the lantern is designed to automatically switch on at dusk and off at dawn.

Can this lantern be used indoors?

This lantern is specifically designed for outdoor use and requires sunlight to charge. It is not intended for indoor use.

What type of battery does it use, and is it replaceable?

Yes, the lantern has a replaceable battery. The specific type is not detailed, but typically solar lights use rechargeable AA or AAA NiMH batteries.

Is the lantern waterproof?

The lantern is splash-proof according to IP44 standards, meaning it can withstand water splashes but should not be submerged in water.

How often should I clean the solar panel?

It is recommended to clean the solar panel periodically with a soft, damp cloth to ensure it can absorb sunlight effectively for charging.

What should I do if the lantern stops working after a season?

Check if the battery needs replacing. If the issue persists, clean the solar panel and ensure it's getting adequate sunlight. If problems continue, consult the manufacturer's warranty information.

Troubleshooting

Lantern not turning on at dusk.

Ensure the solar panel is clean and receiving direct sunlight. Check if the on/off switch (if applicable and accessible) is in the 'on' position. The battery may need replacement if it's old or depleted.

Light is dim or does not last long.

The lantern may not have received enough sunlight during the day. Relocate it to a sunnier spot. Clean the solar panel. The rechargeable battery might be nearing the end of its lifespan and may need replacing.

Water inside the lantern.

While splash-protected (IP44), prolonged exposure to heavy rain or submersion can cause water ingress. Dry the lantern thoroughly. Inspect for any cracks or damage that compromise its water resistance.
