Operating Instructions
The Permande Solar Torch Lights operate automatically once installed and activated.
- Automatic Charging: The integrated solar panel will automatically charge the internal 600mAh rechargeable battery during daylight hours when exposed to direct sunlight. Charging time is approximately 8 hours for a full charge.
- Automatic Illumination: A built-in light sensor detects ambient light levels. At dusk, the torch lights will automatically turn on, displaying the flickering flame effect. At dawn, they will automatically turn off and begin charging again.
- Operating Duration: After a full charge, the lights can illuminate for 8-12 hours in summer and 4-6 hours in winter, depending on sunlight exposure and charge level.
- Flickering Flame Effect: The 33 LEDs within each torch light are designed to cast a realistic, smokeless, and safe flickering flame effect, enhancing the ambiance of your outdoor space.

Maintenance
To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your Permande Solar Torch Lights, follow these simple maintenance guidelines:
- Clean Solar Panel: Regularly wipe the solar panel with a soft, damp cloth to remove dust, dirt, and debris. A clean panel ensures maximum sunlight absorption and efficient charging.
- Clear Obstructions: Ensure that no leaves, branches, or other objects are blocking the solar panel's exposure to direct sunlight.
- Battery Replacement: The included AAA batteries are rechargeable. If the lights' performance significantly diminishes over time, the rechargeable battery may need replacement. Use only rechargeable AAA batteries of the same type and capacity.
- Weather Resistance: The lights are IP65 waterproof and designed to withstand various weather conditions (rain, snow, frost). However, during extreme weather events, it is advisable to bring them indoors to prevent potential damage.
