FAQs
How many lanterns are included in the pack?
This pack includes four Streetwize Versatile Solar Lanterns.
Can these lanterns be used indoors?
These lanterns are designed for outdoor use. They require sunlight to charge, which is best achieved outdoors.
What type of bulb do these lanterns use?
Each lantern is fitted with a filament-style bulb that emits a warm glow.
Do I need to wire these lanterns to a power source?
No, these are solar-powered lanterns and do not require any wiring or electrical connection.
How long will the lanterns stay lit at night?
The duration of light depends on the amount of sunlight the solar panels receive during the day. On a full charge, they typically provide ambient lighting throughout the evening.
What are the dimensions of each lantern?
Each lantern measures approximately 7.5 x 7.5 x 6.5cm.
Are the batteries included?
Yes, the lanterns come with the necessary 1.2V 300mAh NI-MH rechargeable batteries included.
Troubleshooting
Lantern does not light up at night.
Ensure the solar panel is clean and free of debris. Verify the lantern is placed in an area that receives at least 6-8 hours of direct sunlight daily. Check if the on/off switch is set to the 'on' position (if applicable).
Lantern light is dim or short-lived.
The solar panel may be dirty; clean it with a soft, damp cloth. The battery may not be fully charging due to insufficient sunlight. Try relocating the lantern to a sunnier spot. The rechargeable battery may be nearing the end of its lifespan and might need replacement (ensure it's a 1.2V 300mAh NI-MH battery).
Lantern flickers or turns off prematurely.
This could indicate a weak battery charge or an intermittent connection. Ensure a full day's charge. If the issue persists, the battery may need replacing.
