Kervarne Solar String Lights 4.3m - White

Description

DescriptionThese solar string lights carry ten white ribbed round lanterns along a black cable, powered by a round black solar panel that stands on a spike. The string is 430cm long and the lanterns are 7cm in diameter, small enough to read as a row of soft dots of light rather than a bright line. Each lantern holds an integrated solar LED of 0.06W, and because the LEDs are not replaceable, the string is a complete piece with no bulbs to buy. We do not have an IP rating for this string, so we cannot say how it copes with rain or splashing water, and until one is confirmed we suggest keeping it dry.
These lights suit anyone who wants a gentle glow with no plug and no socket nearby. The panel charges from daylight, and as general guidance it does best in an open, sunny spot. The run time is given as 6 to 8 hours, which comfortably covers a long evening. With a 430cm string, you can loop the lanterns in a soft curve or run them in a straight line, and the low 0.06W per LED keeps the light soft and low-key rather than glaring. Because each lantern is only 7cm in diameter, a single string gives a fine, even line of light that never crowds the space around it.
The body is black plastic, so the panel, spike and cable sit back quietly while the white lanterns take the eye. An on/off switch puts you in charge of when the lanterns glow, and the string runs on an AA NiMH battery of 300mAh. At a packed weight of 0.226KG, it is light enough to move whenever you fancy a change of scene. The installation instructions come as a download, and we suggest a quick read before you set the panel and spike in place.
