General questions:

The operation of the remote control is easy to learn. You can find detailed instructions for the remote control here…

If the lights on the remote control flash continuously, the battery is incorrectly inserted.

For parasols up to four metres side length, we recommend two lights per parasol. For larger parasols, four lights per parasol. 

The operating time with two LED strips is about 15 hours, with four LED strips about seven hours. Due to the constant standby, a slow discharge of the powerbank takes place in standby mode. If the Lume-1 smart is not used for a longer period of time, we recommend switching off the powerbank to ensure the charge level. To do this, you can simply disconnect the USB cable from the powerbank, it will then switch off after about 30 seconds.

Connection cable from battery bag: approx. 10 cm

Splitter cable 2-/4-Way: approx. 55 cm (each side 25 cm)

Yes, to create a particularly pleasant ambience, we opted for a warm white light.

As a rule, the set of 2 per shade is sufficient; however, if you notice that it is not enough for you or you would like to illuminate more tables, you can optionally order the matching extension set.

In the scope of supply appropriate assembly material is present, you can bring the strips with cable ties at the struts on the desired position and optionally provide with the self-drilling screws.
