Can LED candles be left in the sun?
Regular wax LED candles are not suitable for direct and prolonged sunlight. They can soften or slightly deform — not dangerous, but not aesthetically pleasing.
Outdoor LED candles are: TED Lights' outdoor LED candles are made from UV-resistant material that will not deform or discolour in the sun. They are specifically designed for outdoor use in all weather conditions in the Netherlands, Belgium, and Germany.
Solar lanterns in the sun: Solar lanterns are dependent on the sun — the more sun they get during the day, the longer they will glow in the evening. Place them in the sunniest spot in the garden.
Practical advice:
- Only use specific outdoor LED candles in direct sunlight
- Do not expose regular indoor LED candles to direct sunlight on a warm day
- In an outdoor lantern, LED candles are better protected from direct sunlight
