Using this personalized solar light is easy. Just place it in a spot where it can get plenty of sunlight during the day. The solar panel will soak up the sun's energy and convert it into power. When dusk comes, the light will automatically turn on, showing off a beautiful multi - color display. At dawn, it will turn off on its own. As for maintenance, you should clean the solar panel regularly with a soft, dry cloth to make sure it can absorb sunlight efficiently. Also, keep the light away from harsh weather conditions like heavy storms or extreme cold. Avoid placing it in areas where it might be knocked over easily.
