FAQs
How long do the lights stay on after a full charge?
Typically, the lights can stay on for 6-8 hours after a full day's charge, but this duration can vary depending on sunlight intensity and ambient temperature.
What type of battery does it use?
These lights use built-in rechargeable batteries, commonly Ni-MH AA size, which are designed to be replaceable if performance degrades over time.
Do I need to assemble the lights?
Assembly is minimal. You only need to screw the top section onto the base, ensure the switch is on, and attach the ground stake before placing them in the desired location.
Can these lights be used in the rain?
Yes, the lights are designed for outdoor use and are built to withstand typical weather conditions, including rain. Ensure they are properly assembled to maintain a good seal.
How do I replace the rechargeable battery?
Unscrew the top section of the light. The battery compartment should be accessible. Carefully remove the old battery and insert a new, compatible rechargeable battery, ensuring correct polarity.
Will cloudy weather affect the performance?
Yes, cloudy weather significantly reduces the amount of charge the solar panel can collect, which will result in shorter illumination times and potentially dimmer light output.
What are the dimensions of each light?
Each light measures approximately 11.8cm x 11.8cm x 45cm (Length x Width x Height).
Troubleshooting
Light does not turn on
Ensure the 'on/off' switch is set to 'ON'. Check that the solar panel is receiving direct sunlight for at least 6-8 hours. Clean the solar panel. If performance is still poor, the rechargeable battery may need replacement.
Light turns off quickly or is dim
The unit may not be receiving enough direct sunlight. Relocate to an area with more sun exposure. Clean the solar panel. The rechargeable battery may be old and need replacement.
Ground stake is unstable
Ensure the stake is pushed firmly into the ground. If the ground is very hard, moisten the soil slightly or pre-dig a small hole. For very loose surfaces, consider using a more substantial stake or anchoring method.
Water ingress inside the light
Ensure the top section is screwed on tightly and securely to maintain a watertight seal. If water has entered, carefully unscrew the top, dry all internal components thoroughly, and reassemble, ensuring a tight seal.

- Simple on/off switch for manual control.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Unscrew the top section of the light.
- Turn the on/off switch to the 'ON' position.
- Screw the top section back onto the light base.
- Firmly push the ground stake into the desired location in soil, gravel, or grass.
- Ensure the solar panel on top is exposed to direct sunlight.
Compatibility:

- They are self-contained units and do not require external power sources or compatibility with other systems.
Care:
- Cleaning: Wipe the solar panel and plastic casing regularly with a soft, damp cloth to remove dirt and debris. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
- Battery Maintenance: If performance diminishes, the rechargeable battery may need replacement. Unscrew the top, access the battery compartment, and replace with a compatible rechargeable battery (typically AA Ni-MH).
- Winter Storage: For extended longevity, especially in harsh climates, consider bringing the lights indoors during winter months.
