Setup Instructions

1. Solar Panel Placement

Optimal performance depends on proper solar panel placement. Choose a location that receives direct sunlight for at least 6-8 hours daily.

• Ground Installation: Use the included ground stake to firmly secure the solar panel in a sunny spot.
• Wall/Fence Mounting: Utilize the mounting clips and screws to attach the solar panel to a wall, fence, or other vertical surface.
• Ensure the solar panel is angled to maximize sun exposure throughout the day. The panel is 180-degree adjustable.

Carefully uncoil the string lights. The total length is 58 feet, with a 9-foot power cord before the first bulb and a 1-foot tail wire after the last bulb. Bulbs are spaced 24 inches apart.

• Use the provided cable ties or hooks to secure the string lights along your desired path (e.g., patio perimeter, fence, pergola).
• Ensure the bulbs hang freely and are not obstructed.
• Important: These string lights are not connectable to other sets.

• Connect a standard 5V 1A USB-C charger (not included) to the Type-C port on the solar panel.
• USB charging takes approximately 5 hours for a full charge.

• Check Connections: Regularly inspect all connections, especially the one between the solar panel and the light string, to ensure they are secure and free from corrosion.
• Bulb Inspection: While the bulbs are shatterproof, occasionally check them for any physical damage or signs of wear. Replace any damaged bulbs promptly.
• Winter Care: In areas with heavy snow or prolonged periods of low sunlight, consider bringing the solar panel indoors or clearing snow from its surface to protect it and maintain battery health.
