FAQs: Aluminium Solar Lantern
Frequently asked questions
does the lantern turn on automatically or do I have to turn it on ?
Asked by alan on 29 Nov 2015
The lantern will automatically turn on at dusk
I realise that the lantern is for effect rather than strong lighting but could you give an idea of the light output please.
Asked by Alan on 8 Jun 2015
It is the equivalent of a 3w bulb that has been diffused. It is not strong and will look like a flickering candle at night.
Please can you confirm that the lantern is finished in a dark forest green in colour with a matching spike.
Asked by Stella on 27 Feb 2015
It is black metal finish
how long this light stays on for?
Asked by luke on 13 Jan 2015
Up to six hours. The amount of time the light will stay on for depends on time of year and how much direct sunlight it will be getting on the solar panel per day.
