FAQs
What type of batteries do these lights use?
The lights require 3 x AA batteries, which are sold separately.
How long do the batteries typically last?
You can expect up to 60 hours of illumination time from a set of fresh batteries.
Can these lights be used outdoors?
No, these lights are IP20 rated and are intended for indoor use only.
How long is the total length of the lights?
The string features 1.65 meters (approximately 5.4 feet) of lights, with an additional 0.5 meter (approximately 1.6 feet) lead cable from the battery box.
What is the color of the LEDs?
The lights feature warm white static LEDs with a color temperature of 2700k.
Do I need to peel anything off the campervan shapes?
Yes, each campervan shape is coated in a clear plastic film to prevent scratches. You should peel this film away before use to reveal the shiny shapes underneath.
How does the 6-hour timer work?
The timer automatically turns the lights on for 6 hours and then off for 18 hours, repeating this cycle daily. Ensure the lights are switched on to activate the timer function.
Troubleshooting
Lights do not turn on
Ensure 3 new AA batteries are inserted correctly into the battery box, observing the polarity (+/-). Check that the battery compartment is securely closed. Test with a different set of batteries.
Lights flicker or are dim
The batteries may be low. Replace with fresh AA batteries. Ensure battery contacts are clean.
Timer function is not working
Verify that the lights are switched to the 'Timer' setting (if applicable). Ensure the batteries are fresh, as low battery power can affect timer accuracy. The timer typically operates on a 24-hour cycle once activated.
Protective film is difficult to remove
Gently use a fingernail or a plastic card to lift a corner of the film, then slowly peel it away. If difficult, a brief application of gentle heat (e.g., from a hairdryer on a low setting held at a distance) might help, but be cautious not to damage the plastic shape.
