Frequently Asked Questions

Can I expand the kit for a bigger area?

Yes! You can connect up to 3 festoon strings total (10 bulbs each) to the included solar panel and battery. That's 24 metres of lights in total with an additional 5 metres of included extension cord. If more lights or length is needed, consider buying a second (or multiple) solar kits.

How long will the lights run?

Up to 8 hours after a full charge from the solar panel in the sun. We also offer festoon lights that plug into power outlets, see our full collection here: Festoon Lighting.

How does the Auto on/off function work?

With the switch left ON, the festoon light will turn on automatically when the surrounding sunlight drops to a low level. Alternatively, you can manually trigger the light turning on by unplugging the connectors between the solar panel and battery box. Afterwards the plug must be connected back for the battery to be charged.

Can I replace the globes?
