Wipe the panel every few weeks; dust on a panel is the usual reason solar lights dim. Expect shorter run times after cloudy days, which is normal. Wrap a tree loosely rather than tightly, since branches grow and a tight string cuts in. Take them down and store them coiled, not knotted, if you only use them seasonally.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow it compares\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAgainst mains fairy lights, solar needs no cable, no socket and no electricity, at the cost of depending on sunlight. Against the globe ball lights in the same range, stars give a sharper, more festive sparkle. For a permanently lit entertaining area, mains lighting is brighter and more consistent.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow long do they stay lit?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt depends on how much sun the panel got that day.
