FAQs

How long does the battery last on a full charge?

The duration of light depends on the amount of sunlight the solar panel receives. Typically, a full day's charge can provide several hours of illumination, but this can vary based on weather conditions and the age of the rechargeable battery.

Can these lanterns be used indoors?

While they can be placed indoors, they will not charge effectively unless placed in a location with direct sunlight. They are primarily designed and recommended for outdoor use.

What type of battery do these lanterns use?

Each lantern includes one rechargeable battery. The specific type is usually Ni-MH or Ni-Cd, commonly used in solar lighting. These are designed to be recharged by the solar panel.

Are the lanterns waterproof?

The lanterns are made from durable, weather-resistant plastic, designed to withstand outdoor conditions like rain. However, prolonged immersion in water is not recommended.

How do I clean the plastic windows?

Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe the clear plastic windows. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials that could scratch the plastic.

What are the dimensions of each lantern?

Each lantern measures approximately 7.6cm in width, 7.6cm in depth, and 12.3cm in height.

Do I need to turn the lanterns on and off manually?

No, these lanterns feature automatic operation. They turn on automatically at dusk when light levels decrease and turn off at dawn when light levels increase.

Troubleshooting

Lantern does not light up at night

Ensure the lantern has received sufficient direct sunlight for charging. Check that the solar panel is clean and not obstructed. Verify the rechargeable battery is correctly installed and charged. Test by covering the solar panel to simulate darkness.

Light is dim or turns off quickly

The battery may not be fully charged. Relocate the lantern to a sunnier spot. Clean the solar panel. The rechargeable battery may be nearing the end of its lifespan and might need replacement.

Lantern does not turn on automatically

Check if the solar panel is exposed to light. The light sensor might be dirty or obstructed; clean the panel. Ensure the on/off switch (if present) is in the 'on' position.
