Troubleshooting
Lights do not turn on at dusk
Ensure the solar panel is not placed near other light sources like streetlights, which may confuse the dusk sensor. Also, verify that the switch is in the 'on' position.
Lights only work for a short period at night
The solar panel likely did not receive enough direct sunlight to fully charge the battery. Relocate the panel to a sunnier spot.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation is straightforward as no electrical installation or professional help is required. Simply mount the solar panel in a spot that receives maximum direct sunlight during the day and secure the light string along your chosen path or structure. Ensure the panel is kept clean; wiping it occasionally with a damp cloth prevents dust or debris from blocking the charging process. During the winter, if the lights are dimmed due to lack of sun, you may want to ensure the panel is free from frost or snow to maximize any available daylight capture.
