FAQs
How long do the tealights stay lit?
The duration they stay lit depends on the amount of sunlight they receive during the day. On a full charge, they typically last for several hours after dusk.
Do these tealights require batteries?
No, these tealights are solar-powered and have built-in solar panels. They do not require any external batteries.
Can I use these tealights indoors?
While they are designed for outdoor use, they can be used indoors if placed in a location that receives direct, strong sunlight for at least 6-8 hours a day. Otherwise, they will not charge sufficiently.
Are they waterproof?
They are IP44 rated, meaning they are protected against splashing water and are suitable for outdoor use in various weather conditions, including rain. However, they should not be submerged in water.
What should I do during winter?
It is recommended to store the solar tealights indoors during the darker winter months to protect them from harsh weather and preserve battery life. Bring them out again when weather improves in spring and summer.
What is the size of each tealight?
Each tealight has a diameter of 5cm and a height of 6cm.
What color is the light emitted?
The tealights emit a warm white flickering light.
Troubleshooting
Tealight does not turn on at night.
Ensure the solar panel is clean and receiving direct sunlight for at least 6-8 hours daily. Check that the ON/OFF switch (if applicable) is in the 'ON' position. If they have been exposed to very little light, they may need a full day's charge.
Lights turn off too quickly.
The battery may not be fully charging due to insufficient sunlight. Relocate the tealights to a sunnier spot. Heavy cloud cover or shade from trees can impact charging duration. Ensure the tealights are not in an area with ambient light at night which could trick the sensor.
Flickering is inconsistent or dim.
This can be due to a low battery charge. Allow the tealights to charge in direct sunlight for a full day. Clean the solar panel, as dust or debris can reduce charging efficiency.
