Create unique ambient light for your garden with LUMIZ solar lanterns. Designed in the Netherlands, the LUMIZ lanterns were inspired by light, nature and our global village. They are made from durable and weather resistant Tyvek material, and produce a unique atmosphere in your garden. When dusk falls, the LED light is activated from the LUMIZ solar panel and the patterns magically come to life. Enjoy the shapes, designs and colours from our LUMIZ collection. Each Lumiz lantern is equipped with a compact solar panel. This panel collects sunlight during the day and automatically charges the built in battery. Once it gets dark, the lantern uses this stored energy to power the LED light. Special features of Lumiz Completely wireless no power outlet needed Automatically turns on and off thanks to built in light sensor Equipped with thermal protection for heat and frost Rechargeable battery is replaceable Weather resistant and maintenance free The burn time of a Lumiz lantern can vary. It depends on how much sunlight the lantern absorbs during the day and on the outdoor temperature. This variation is completely normal and typical of all battery powered products. The batteries in the solar modules come with thermal protection. This means they automatically shut down in extreme temperatures to prevent damage or overheating. In hot weather: If the battery temperature rises above approx. 60 C (140 F), it will automatically shut off. It may already perform slightly less efficiently from around 40 C (104 F). But don't worry on such sunny days, the lanterns usually charge extra well. In cold weather: If the temperature drops below freezing (around 15 C 5 F), the battery also shuts off to avoid damage. As soon as the temperature rises again, the lantern resumes normal function. This smart safety system keeps your Lumiz lantern operating safely and reliably all year round. Each Lumiz lantern contains a rechargeable AAA NiMH battery (1. 2 volts). This battery plays a vital role by storing the solar energy collected during the day. At dusk, it powers the LED light automatically. Lumiz use NiMH (Nickel Metal Hydride) batteries, as they are more eco friendly than older NiCd types and do not suffer from the "memory effect". This means you can recharge them even if they're not fully drained. Key Features: Size: AAA (standard) Type: NiMH, rechargeable, 1. 2 V, approx. 700 mAh Replaceable: Easy to change yourself to extend the lantern's life Low maintenance: No special care needed just recharge via sunlight Durable: Suitable for daily outdoor use in all seasons Replacing the Battery Always use a rechargeable AAA NiMH battery (1. 2 V, approx. 700 mAh) when replacing it. Only then will your Lumiz continue to function properly and provide long lasting, atmospheric outdoor lighting. Rechargeable batteries have a limited lifespan it is recommended replacing them after 12 to 15 months of regular use. If you store your Lumiz indoors during the winter, be sure to remove the battery to prolong the lifespan of both the lantern and the battery. Why Is the placement of solar lighting important? The performance of Lumiz solar lighting depends entirely on sunlight. If the solar panel doesn't receive enough sunlight, the battery won't charge properly, which means the lantern may not shine as longor may not light up at all. Proper placement is essential for optimal use and maximum burn time. Placement Tips Sunlight: Choose a spot that gets at least 46 hours of direct sunlight per day Avoid shade: Keep the lantern away from trees, walls, or roof edges that cast shadows Keep the panel clean: Dust and dirt can reduce charging efficiency Freestanding or hanging: Position or hang the lantern so that the solar panel faces upward and remains unobstructed
