FAQs
How many lights are included in a set?
The product description specifies 'Each 70cm stem features 40 warm white LEDs', implying multiple stems are likely sold as a set. Please refer to the specific product packaging or listing for the exact quantity.
What is the expected lifespan of the rechargeable battery?
The included battery is a 1 x AA Ni-MH 200mAh. Rechargeable batteries typically last between 1 to 2 years with regular use and proper care before their capacity diminishes significantly.
Can these lights be used in winter?
Yes, they are waterproof and durable for outdoor use. However, reduced daylight hours and cloud cover in winter may affect charging efficiency, potentially leading to shorter illumination times or reduced brightness.
Do I need to wire these lights to a power source?
No, these are solar-powered lights. They use a built-in solar panel and rechargeable battery, so no wiring to a mains power source is required.
How tall are the individual light stems?
Each light stem is approximately 70cm in height.
What type of light do they emit?
They emit a warm white light, designed to create a cozy and inviting atmosphere.
Can I replace the battery if it stops holding a charge?
Yes, the lights use a standard 1 x AA Ni-MH 200mAh rechargeable battery, which can be replaced if necessary following the instructions for accessing the battery compartment.
Troubleshooting
Lights do not turn on at night
Ensure the solar panel is clean and receiving direct sunlight for at least 6-8 hours daily. Check if the ON/OFF switch (if applicable) is in the ON position. The rechargeable battery may need replacement if it's old or has been damaged.
Lights are dim or do not stay on for long
This usually indicates insufficient charging. Move the lights to a location with more direct sunlight. Clean the solar panel. If the problem persists after several days of good sunlight, the rechargeable battery might be nearing the end of its lifespan and may need replacement.
Lights turn on during the day
Check if the light sensor is obstructed or if there is a manual ON/OFF switch that is set incorrectly. Ensure the solar panel is not covered by any reflective material or direct light source during the day.
Water ingress into the light
Although designed to be waterproof, check for any visible damage to the seals or casing. If water is present, carefully open the affected part (if possible without causing further damage), dry it thoroughly, and ensure all seals are properly seated before reassembly. If damage is significant, replacement may be necessary.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Unpack the lights and ensure all components are present.
- Assemble the individual stems if necessary, following any included diagrams.
- Choose your desired location. For ground placement, firmly push the stake into the soil. For hanging, use the integrated loop to attach to pergolas, fences, or branches.
- Ensure the solar panel on top of each light is positioned to receive direct sunlight throughout the day.
- The lights are designed to operate automatically; they will turn on at dusk and off at dawn once the battery has charged.
Compatibility:
- These lights are designed for outdoor use in gardens, patios, balconies, and similar areas.
- Compatibility is primarily with a ground surface for staking or a structure for hanging.
Care:
- Periodically wipe the solar panel with a soft, damp cloth to remove dust and debris, ensuring optimal charging efficiency.
- Inspect the lights occasionally for any damage. Ensure the waterproof seals remain intact.
- During extended periods of low sunlight (e.g., winter months), you may need to bring the lights indoors or manually turn them off to conserve battery power.
