What should be labelled on solar-powered products? Solar camping lights (with solar panels): Claims regarding ‘solar charging’ (duration) must be substantiated; claims regarding ‘battery life on overcast days’ (explanation) must be truthful. Labelling for solar-powered products must be verified against test data.
How should batteries be labelled? Camping lights (lithium batteries, dry cells): Battery compartment markings (model number, positive and negative terminals) and lithium battery transport compliance (UN38.3) must be correct; the “charging port” (Type-C) marking must be clear. Battery compliance must be verified against transport standards before dispatch.
What should be labelled regarding water resistance? Water resistance ratings for camping lights (e.g. IPX4): ratings for protection against rain and splashes must be labelled in accordance with standards; the statement “Suitable for use in the rain” must be printed. Water resistance labelling must be “accurate”.
How should hanging displays be arranged? Hanging displays for retail camping lights (blister cards): Suspended from shelves, with the lamp body on display; ‘brightness and battery life’ (lumens, hours) must be labelled on the card. The choice of display method should be determined by the specific retail location.
Camping lamps are an ‘essential for the night’: if the lampshade gets scratched easily, the switch breaks at the slightest press, or the lithium battery is non-compliant, the product won’t sell — the packaging’s cushioning and labelling determine whether a lamp arrives at the campsite in good condition. This article clearly explains the challenges of camping lantern packaging, providing direct practical guidance for clients in the outdoor equipment sector.
How should the lampshade be protected? Camping lanterns (lampshade, hanging loop): apply a protective film to the lampshade (to prevent scratches) and wrap the hanging loop (to prevent knocks); the ‘drop-proof’ (drop test) selling point must be highlighted. The standard for lampshade protection is that ‘the lampshade looks as good as new upon unboxing’.
