Product Information
Full details
The Streetwize Hydrangea Solar Lights are ideal for homeowners looking to add a touch of decorative flair to their gardens with minimal effort. These solar-powered lights offer an enchanting ambiance with their hydrangea-shaped design and warm white LEDs, providing up to 8 hours of illumination without any running costs. A key caveat is that their brightness and duration are dependent on sufficient daily sunlight, and they are designed for decorative accent lighting rather than primary illumination.

FAQs
How long do the Streetwize Hydrangea Solar Lights typically last on a full charge?
On a full charge, the lights can provide up to 8 hours of illumination. This duration can vary depending on the amount of sunlight received during the day and the ambient temperature.
Do I need to manually turn these lights on and off each day?
No, the lights feature an automatic on/off function. They will turn on automatically at dusk when light levels decrease and turn off at dawn as sunlight increases.
What type of battery do these lights use, and can it be replaced?
The lights use a 1.2V 200mAh Ni-MH rechargeable battery. While they are designed to be long-lasting, batteries do degrade over time. Replacement is possible, but requires careful disassembly and sourcing of a compatible battery.
Can these lights be used in the winter or during rainy weather?
Yes, the lights are built with durable, weather-resistant materials designed for year-round outdoor use. However, performance may be reduced during prolonged periods of heavy rain or low sunlight.
What is the total height of each light stake?
Each light stake has a height of approximately 70cm.
How many lights are included in a pack?
The product description specifies 'Quantity: 3-Flower Stem', implying that a single purchase provides three light stakes.
Are the LEDs replaceable?
The LEDs are integrated into the light clusters and are not designed to be individually replaceable. If an LED fails, it typically means the entire light cluster may need attention or replacement.
Troubleshooting
Lights do not turn on at night.
Ensure the solar panel has received at least 6-8 hours of direct sunlight. Check that the switch (if applicable) is in the 'on' position. Clean the solar panel as it may be obstructed by dirt or debris. Verify the rechargeable battery is properly seated and functional.
Lights have a short illumination time.
This is likely due to insufficient sunlight during the day. Relocate the lights to a sunnier spot. Ensure no trees, buildings, or other objects are casting shadows on the solar panel. Charge the unit for a full 2-3 days in direct sunlight to ensure the battery is fully conditioned.
Lights flicker or are dim.
Clean the solar panel. The rechargeable battery may be nearing the end of its lifespan and might need replacement. Ensure the connection between the light head and the stake is secure.
Water ingress into the light head.
While designed to be weather-resistant, extreme conditions can sometimes cause issues. Inspect for any cracks or damage to the casing. Allow the light to dry thoroughly in a warm, dry place. If damage is significant, replacement may be necessary.
