Extended Product Information
FAQs
How long does the light stay on?
The duration the light stays on depends on the amount of sunlight it receives during the day. On a full charge, it can typically illuminate for several hours after dusk.
What is the warranty period for this product?
Please refer to the B&Q warranty information provided at the time of purchase or on their website for specific details regarding the warranty period.
Can I replace the battery?
The battery is typically sealed within the unit for solar charging. Consult the product manual or B&Q customer service for information on battery replacement or service.
Will this work on cloudy days?
While the light will still charge on cloudy days, the amount of energy collected will be less, potentially resulting in a dimmer light and shorter illumination time compared to sunny days.
What should I do if the colours are not bright?
Ensure the solar panel is clean and has had sufficient direct sunlight exposure. Dust or debris on the panel can significantly reduce its efficiency.
Is the product waterproof?
The product is designed for outdoor use, but it's advisable to protect it from prolonged extreme weather or submersion in water to ensure its longevity.
Troubleshooting
Light does not turn on at dusk
Ensure the solar panel is clean and receiving direct sunlight for at least 6-8 hours daily. Check that the product is not placed in the shade of trees or structures. Verify that the on/off switch (if present) is in the 'on' position.
Light is dim or lasts for a short duration
The solar panel may not be receiving enough sunlight. Clean the solar panel. If the issue persists over several days, it may be due to insufficient light exposure, especially during cloudy weather.
Spinner does not rotate
Check if there is sufficient wind. If there is wind, ensure the spinner mechanism is not obstructed by leaves, branches, or debris. Gently check if the spinner can move freely by hand.
Product feels unstable in the ground
Reposition the stake and ensure it is pushed firmly into the ground. If the ground is too hard, moisten it slightly or choose a different location. For very soft ground, consider adding additional support.
