Product Information
Full details
These Smart Solar Rubber Duck String Lights are perfect for adding a playful and whimsical glow to any outdoor space, especially for those who enjoy quirky garden decor. Their key benefit is the effortless, wire-free illumination provided by solar power, creating a cozy ambiance as dusk settles. A potential caveat is that their light output is decorative rather than functional, best suited for accent lighting. The lights feature durable plastic duck designs that emit a warm white glow, ideal for decorating trees, fences, or pergolas.

FAQs
How long do the lights stay on after a full charge?
Typically, the lights will stay illuminated for 6-8 hours on a full charge, depending on the amount of sunlight received during the day.
Are these lights waterproof?
While designed for outdoor use, it's recommended to protect them from extreme weather. Specific water resistance details should be checked against product specifications, but generally, they are designed to withstand normal outdoor conditions.
What is the total length of the string lights?
The total length of the string is 470.0cm, allowing for ample decoration space.
Can I replace the LED bulbs?
The LED bulbs are typically integrated and not designed for user replacement. If an LED fails, the whole string may need to be replaced.
Do these lights require batteries?
No, these lights are solar-powered and use an integrated rechargeable battery that is charged by the solar panel.
What is the size of each rubber duck?
Each duck measures approximately H 5.0cm x W 470.0cm x D 6.0cm.
Can I connect multiple sets together?
These lights are generally not designed to be connected end-to-end. Each set operates independently.
Troubleshooting
Lights do not turn on at night.
Ensure the solar panel is clean and has received adequate direct sunlight during the day. Check if the lights are positioned in a location that is not exposed to ambient light at night. Verify the on/off switch (if applicable) is in the 'on' position.
Lights are dim or do not stay on for long.
The battery may not be fully charged. Relocate the solar panel to a sunnier spot or ensure it is not obstructed. Clean the solar panel. If the issue persists after several days of charging, the rechargeable battery may need replacement (if applicable and possible).
String lights are damaged.
Inspect the string for any visible damage to the wires or duck casings. If minor damage is found, attempt repair if safe to do so. For significant damage, consider replacing the unit.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Unpack the string lights carefully.
- Identify the solar panel and ensure it is clean and free of debris.
- Position the solar panel in an area that receives direct sunlight for the majority of the day (at least 6-8 hours).
- Hang the string lights along trees, fences, pergolas, or any desired outdoor structure.
- Ensure the lights are not placed in a location that is already illuminated by other strong light sources at night, as this may prevent them from activating.
Compatibility:
These lights are designed for outdoor use and are compatible with most garden features such as trees, fences, walls, and patios. They are not intended for indoor use and do not require any electrical outlets or wiring, making them universally compatible with any outdoor space that receives sunlight.
Care:
- Periodically wipe the solar panel with a soft, damp cloth to remove dust and ensure efficient charging. Avoid using abrasive cleaners.
- Check the duck casings for any dirt or debris and clean gently with a damp cloth if necessary.
- Store the lights in a dry place during prolonged periods of non-use or harsh weather conditions to prolong their lifespan.
