Product Information
Full details
The Butterflies on Rock with Solar Light is an ideal choice for garden enthusiasts looking to add whimsical, nature-inspired lighting to their outdoor landscape without the hassle of electrical wiring. This 18cm decorative ornament features three vibrantly colored butterflies perched on a textured stone, providing a charming focal point during the day and an automated glow at night. While it is weather-resistant and durable for year-round use, its effectiveness depends on placement in a location that receives sufficient direct sunlight to charge the built-in solar panel.

FAQs
Does this product require batteries?
No, it uses a built-in solar panel to charge an internal battery using sunlight, so no external batteries or wiring are required.
Is the ornament waterproof?
It is weather-resistant, designed to handle rain and normal outdoor conditions, but it should not be submerged in water.
How long will the light stay on after dark?
The duration depends on how much sunlight it received during the day; typically, it can provide several hours of glow after a full day of charging.
Can I leave it outside in the winter?
Yes, it is designed for year-round use, though storing it indoors during severe winters can help preserve the unit's longevity.
Is the rock real stone?
The piece is crafted to look like a realistic textured rock, providing a durable base for the butterflies while being lightweight enough to move easily.
How do I turn the light off?
The device features an automatic sensor that turns it off when daylight is detected. If you need to keep it off, you can cover the solar panel or place it in a dark location.
Troubleshooting
The light does not turn on at night
Ensure the solar panel is free of dirt and that the unit received sufficient direct sunlight during the day. Also, check that the area is not illuminated by nearby artificial lights at night, which can confuse the light sensor.
The light is dim or stays on for a very short time
This is likely due to low battery charge. Place the ornament in a location that receives more direct, unobstructed sunlight. Prolonged cloudy weather will naturally reduce illumination time.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setting up the Butterflies on Rock is straightforward: simply find a location with maximum sun exposure and place the unit on a flat, stable surface. There is no assembly or wiring required.
Care Instructions:
- Solar Panel Maintenance: Periodically wipe the solar panel with a soft, damp cloth to ensure it is free from dust, debris, or bird droppings, which can impede charging.
- Winter Storage: While durable, bringing the unit indoors during extreme freezing conditions or heavy snow can help extend the lifespan of the solar battery.
- Placement Tips: Ensure the unit is not shaded by trees, bushes, or garden structures, as this will significantly reduce the duration of the nightly illumination.
