FAQs
Can I use these on hard surfaces like a deck or gravel patio?
While they come with a ground stake for lawns and soil, the decorative lantern head can easily be detached and placed flat on outdoor tables, wooden decking, or gravel borders for a beautiful low-profile or tabletop lighting effect.
Will the lights still charge if they are in partial shade?
Yes, the amorphous silicon solar panel can capture ambient light to charge the battery. However, for the brightest and longest-lasting glow at night, we recommend placing them in an area that receives direct sunlight for at least 4β6 hours a day.
How do I replace the battery when it stops holding a charge?
Simply unscrew the top cap beneath the solar panel to access the battery compartment. You can swap the standard 300mAh AAA NiMH rechargeable battery for a fresh one to keep your lights running for years to come.
Can I mix warm white and bright white lights in the same garden?
Absolutely! Many customers use bright white lights to highlight practical, high-traffic areas like steps or driveways, while using warm white lights to create a softer, more inviting ambiance around flower beds and patios.
Are these packaged well enough to give as a gift?
Yes! The lights are securely and compactly boxed, making them a fantastic ready-to-wrap gift for housewarmings, Mother's Day, or for the avid gardener in your life.
Do these lights need electricity or wiring?
No. They run completely on solar power and are fully wireless β no electrician, no trenching, no ongoing electricity costs.
Are they waterproof for outdoor use?
Yes, they are designed to be waterproof and suitable for all weather conditions including rain, snow, and frost.
How long do they stay lit at night?
After a full day of charging, they can provide illumination for 6β10 hours depending on sunlight received.
Do they turn on automatically?
Yes. The built-in dusk-to-dawn sensor turns the lights on at sunset and off at sunrise automatically.
Are these safe around children and pets?
Yes β unlike hardwired systems, there are no hot bulbs or dangerous electrical wires buried in the ground where children play or pets dig.
π‘ Did You Know?
Amorphous silicon solar panels β like the ones used in these lights β are more efficient at capturing diffuse and low-angle light than standard crystalline panels. That means they keep charging even on overcast days, making them a reliable choice for gardens in all climates.
