Solar candles are made of translucent plastic materials, and solar panels are installed inside the candles. In addition, it is connected with a NI-MH rechargeable battery. These solar candles are placed in windows or anywhere outdoors where they absorb sunlight throughout the day so that you can enjoy a warm glow at night.
During the day, solar panels absorb sunlight to recharge the batteries, and at night they will automatically light up and maintain the lighting time of 6-8 hours.

Battery life on flameless candles varies by type of candle, brightness of the light and type and number of batteries used. Most of our pillar candles require four (4) AA batteries (usually not included) with a total battery life of approximately 450 hours. Taper candles take two (2) AAA batteries lasting about 250 hours and both tea lights and votives come with CR2032 batteries lasting between 100-150 hours each. As with many things, in buying batteries, you get what you pay for. Using Duracell batteries will last longer than using off-brand or store-brand batteries. If your candle uses a remote, it is best to turn the candle in the "Off" position at the bottom of the candle if you aren't going to be using it for a while. Leaving it in the "On" position, even if you turn it off with a remote, will still drain the battery as the candle listens passively for another remote command.
