FAQs
How long does the battery last on a full charge?
On a full charge, the lantern typically illuminates for 6-8 hours. This can vary depending on the amount of sunlight received during the day and ambient temperature.
Do I need to turn the lantern on and off manually?
No, the lantern features an automatic dusk-to-dawn sensor. It will turn on automatically when it gets dark and turn off when it gets light.
Can this lantern be used indoors?
This lantern is designed for outdoor use. While it can be placed indoors, it will not charge effectively from indoor lighting and the automatic sensor may not function correctly.
What is the warranty period for this product?
Please refer to the product packaging or the manufacturer's website for specific warranty information.
How do I clean the fluted orb?
Gently wipe the orb with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaning tools to prevent damage to the finish.
What should I do if the light flickers or is inconsistent?
Ensure the solar panel is clean and unobstructed. Check that the hanging location provides consistent sunlight. Inconsistent flickering might also be due to a battery nearing the end of its lifespan or a faulty connection.
Troubleshooting
Lantern does not turn on at dusk.
Ensure the solar panel is clean and receiving direct sunlight. Check that the on/off switch is in the 'ON' position. The battery may need a full day of direct sunlight to charge initially.
Light is dim or does not last long.
The lantern may not have received enough direct sunlight. Move it to a sunnier location. Clean the solar panel. Battery performance can degrade over time.
Lantern turns on during the day.
This is uncommon for solar lights with automatic dusk sensors. Ensure no external light sources are directly hitting the sensor, which might confuse it. If the issue persists, contact customer support.
