- Do these need direct sunlight to work?
- They charge best in direct sun and run shorter on overcast days. Place the panel where it gets several hours of unobstructed light.
- How long do they stay lit at night?
- A full charge typically covers several hours after dark. Expect less in winter or after cloudy days, since the built-in panel and battery are small.
- Are they bright enough for a walkway or security?
- They work as accent and path lighting. They are not bright enough to light a yard or deter intruders the way a wired floodlight would.
- Do I need the Govee app?
- Basic models switch on and off on their own without the app. App-connected models need it for color changes, scenes and schedules.
- Can they stay outside in rain and snow?
- They are built for outdoor use and handle normal rain. Owners report that water can still get into some units over time, so check the seals and keep them out of standing water.
- What comes in the box?
- Usually the light heads with attached stakes and panels, plus a manual. Check the listing for the number of units, since pack sizes vary.
