The IP44 rating certifies that a product is protected against the ingress of solid foreign objects larger than 1 mm in diameter and against splashing water from all directions. This makes it suitable for use in most outdoor areas, as long as it is not submerged in water or exposed to a powerful water jet.
Battery life depends on several factors: the quality of the batteries, the number of LEDs, the brightness, and the selected lighting mode. In continuous operation, a set of AA batteries can last between 40 and 100 hours, depending on the product. Using a timer function, which turns the lights on for 6–8 hours daily, can extend the battery life to several weeks.
The light colour significantly influences the atmosphere. Warm white light (approx. 2700–3300 Kelvin) has a yellowish to reddish tone that is perceived as cosy and inviting, similar to an incandescent bulb or candlelight. Cool white light (approx. 5300–6500 Kelvin) has a bluish tint, appears brighter, and creates a crisp, modern, and wintry look reminiscent of snow and ice.
