There are dozens of solar tiki torches out there, each promising to enhance your outdoor space with their ambient glow and easy-to-use designs.
But how do you choose the right one for your garden or patio?
This is why I’ve tested over 50 different models, sifting through countless hours of nighttime illumination to bring you the list of the best solar tiki torches on the market.
In this guide, you’ll find detailed reviews of each top contender, insights into their performance, and tips on what to look for to get the perfect solar tiki torch for you.
Best Solar Flicker Flame Lights
Editor’s Choice
TomCare Solar Upgraded Tiki Torches
Key Features
- Material: ABS
- Height: 43 inches
- Run Time: 10 hours
- Charge Time: 8 hours
- Brightness: 35 lumens
- Waterproofing: IP65
- Warranty: 1 year
The first item on today’s list is the famous TomCare solar tiki torch.
Well, it’s not just about the top-notch quality, sleek design, or even its sturdiness.
The real deal-breaker here is its incredible dancing flame effect.
Crafting a realistic flame with LEDs isn’t simple—a slight misstep in alignment and the whole vibe is off.
But TomCare nailed it by arranging 96 LEDs in just the right pattern to mimic the mesmerizing dance of real flames.
My cat Luna can spend hours just staring at it!
Sure, Luna could watch paint dry and not get bored, but believe me, these flames are something else.
They cast a soft glow of about 35 lumens, which is perfect for creating a cozy atmosphere without being overpoweringly bright.
Each light gives off about 35 lumens, which is just perfect to set the mood without being too bright.
The torch itself is 43 inches tall, so it’s tall enough to stand out no matter where you place it or the look of your décor.
They’re also built to brave the elements with an IP65 waterproof rating, so no worries about rain or snow.
There’s just one little snag—the poles are plastic, which means they might snap if you’re not gentle with them.
Overall, I think the TomCare solar tiki torches are a great choice for anyone looking to add some flair to their backyard.
And with a 30-day money-back guarantee, trying them out is a breeze.
Pros
- Realistic dancing flame effect
- Up to 10-hour run time
- 35 lumens output
- IP65 waterproofing rating
- 1-year warranty
Cons
- The poles are made of plastic and can crack easily
- Quite expensive compared to other solar tiki torches
Runner up
Aityvert Solar Tiki Torch Lights
Key Features
- Material: Plastic
- Height: 43 inches
- Run Time: 12 hours
- Charge Time: 12 hours
- Brightness: 35 lumens
- Waterproofing: IP65
- Warranty: 1 year
If you are not a fan of the TomCare solar tiki lights, then your next best option is the Aityvery torches.
These come with a lot of the same perks as the TomCare torches, so you’re not missing out on much.
Just like TomCare, these have 96 flickering LEDs that shine at 35 lumens, are wrapped up with an IP65 waterproof rating, and even rock a similar stylish design.
But here’s where it gets interesting: Aityvert torches pack a bigger battery—2,200mAh compared to TomCare’s 1,500mAh.
This bump in battery size suggests you could get up to 12 hours of glow time, a bit more than TomCare’s 10 hours.
But there is a catch: both lights have a similar solar panel size (0.88W).
So while the battery can run the lights for 12 hours, the solar panel won’t be able to fully charge it during the day.
This means that you’ll still end up with approximately 10 hours of lighting on average even though you have a bigger battery.
I feel like I’m nitpicking at this point, but I do hate this marketing technique, where the seller just throws in a bigger battery to advertise a higher run time (it’s more common than you think).
Anyhow, a bigger battery isn’t that bad, especially if you live in a very sunny area, like California or Texas where you get more than 6 peak sun hours per day.
But it’ll only be useful in the summer months when you have the most direct sunlight.
Still, I think these solar tiki torches are a great choice and they deserve the runner-up spot.
Pros
- Realistic flame effect
- Up to 12-hour run time
- 35 lumens of light
- IP65 waterproofing rating
- 1-year warranty
Cons
- Pretty expensive
Best Heavy Duty
TomCare Metal Flickering Flame Solar Torches
Key Features
- Material: Metal
- Height: 39 inch
- Run Time: 10 hours
- Charge Time: 8 hours
- Brightness: 35 lumens
- Waterproofing: IP65
- Warranty: 1 year
TomCare has knocked it out of the park again!
This time, they’re bringing something sturdier to the table—a heavy-duty metal version of their popular solar tiki torches.
So, if you weren’t too keen on the plastic versions, this metal one might just be what you’re looking for.
This upgrade shows that TomCare really listens to what its customers are saying and doesn’t shy away from making improvements.
Like their plastic cousins, the 96 LEDs on these lights flicker just like a real flame.
However, the light output is still 35 lumens, with a run time of up to 10 hours and 8 hours of charge time.
And you’ll get the same IP65 waterproof rating and 1-year warranty.
Although these torches stand at 39 inches—slightly shorter than some others—it’s still a great height to create a cozy vibe in your patio or garden.
There’s a small hiccup, though.
The poles are still made of plastic, which isn’t ideal.
The heavy metal top might make the torches a bit top-heavy, kind of like a bobblehead.
Anyway, they are worth every penny and I think they deserve the best heavy-duty metal spot, even though I’m still not a fan of the plastic poles.
Pros
- The flames look real even from a distance
- Up to 10 hours of run time
- IP65 waterproofing rating
- 1-year warranty
- Metal construction
- Easy to install
Cons
- Metal top construction is way too heavy for the mounting poles
- On the expensive side, but still worth it
Best Bang for the Buck
Permande Solar Torch Lights
Key Features
- Material: Plastic
- Height: 22.8 inch
- Run Time: 8-10 hours
- Charge Time: 8 hours
- Waterproofing: IP65
- Warranty: 1 year
Sometimes you don’t need the fanciest solar torches out there; you just need something that fits your budget and does the job.
That’s exactly why Permande’s Solar Torch Lights are my top pick for the Best Bang for the Buck.
Now, they do have only 33 LEDs, which means they’re a bit dimmer than some of the other models.
But don’t worry, they still give off enough light to create a warm, inviting ambiance in your garden or on your patio.
The battery capacity is somewhat modest at 600mAh, yet these lights can keep shining for about 8-10 hours after a full charge, which is pretty solid for the price you’re paying.
Just like the more expensive models, these torches come with an IP65 waterproof rating and a 1-year warranty.
The main drawback?
They’re made of plastic, so they might not be as durable as their metal counterparts.
And at 22.8 inches tall, they’re a bit shorter than I’d like, but they still stand tall enough to light up your space effectively.
Even though it doesn’t have all the bells and whistles of its competitors, this model still manages to deliver a good performance at an affordable price.
Pros
- Very affordable
- IP65 waterproofing rating
- 1-year warranty
- Easy to install
Cons
- Short
Best Color
EOYIZW Solar Outdoor Lights
Key Features
- Material: Plastic
- Height: 43 inch
- Run Time: 10 hours
- Charge Time: 8 hours
- Waterproofing: IP65
- Warranty: 1 year
Moving on to the Best Color pick, we have the EOYIZW Solar Outdoor Lights.
These lights stand out with their stunning purple glow that cuts through the darkness, making them a real showstopper.
But there’s more to these lights than just their color.
They’re equipped with 99 LEDs, which is more than most others offer, giving you a brighter light and real a flame effect.
I used them at my last Halloween party, placing them behind a black curtain, and wow, did they look like floating flames!
They can also shine for up to 10 hours after a full charge, and with an IP65 waterproof rating and a 1-year warranty, you can count on them for a long time.
However, all these great features come at a cost.
They are a bit on the expensive side compared to other options.
So, if you’re ready to invest a bit more for that extra pop of color and quality, these purple torches could be just what you’re looking for.
Pros
- Colorful and eye-catching design
- Decent Price
- Up to 10 hours of run time
- Easy to install
Cons
- A bit on the expensive side, but worth every penny
Best Lantern
TomCare Metal Flickering Flame Solar Lantern
Key Features
- Material: Metal
- Height: 8.3 inches
- Run Time: 10 hours
- Charge Time: 8 hours
- Brightness: 25 lumens
- Waterproofing: IP65
- Warranty: 1 year
TomCare is at it again, and they’ve outdone themselves with the best lantern pick on our list.
This lantern rocks a vintage look with its metal construction, giving off those old-school vibes that are just perfect for sprucing up your decks and patios.
But don’t let its retro appearance fool you; this lantern is loaded with modern features.
It casts a cozy ambiance with its 25-lumen brightness—just enough flicker to light up the dark without being overpowering.
Just park it in the sunlight for about 8 hours, and it’ll keep going for up to 10 hours straight.
Worried about rust? No need.
TomCare has added a special protective coating to the metal to fend off the elements and keep it looking fresh.
Despite its solid build, this lantern is compact, measuring 8.3 inches tall and 4.7 inches wide, making it a perfect fit for any table or shelf without taking over the space.
Now, it’s not all sunshine and rainbows.
The price tag is a bit on the high side, but if you’re okay with spending a little extra, it’s worth it.
And while we’re at it, the charge time could be better.
It takes a full 8 hours of sun to charge up, and then you’re looking at about 10 hours of light.
It takes 8 hours of sun exposure to fully charge the battery and after that, you only get a maximum of 10 working hours.
Despite these points, if you’re looking for a blend of vintage charm and modern functionality, this TomCare lantern could be just the right addition to your outdoor setup.
Pros
- Vintage metal construction
- Just the right size
- Real flickering flames
- Rustproof body
Cons
- Expensive price tag
- Long charge time
Best for Fences
Aityvert Solar Flame Lights
Key Features
- Material: Plastic
- Height: 7.09 inches
- Run Time: 10 hours
- Charge Time: 8 hours
- Waterproofing: IP65
- Warranty: 1 year
Here’s another solid choice from Aityvert Solar Flame Lights.
If you’re searching for a torch that keeps things low-key and blends in smoothly, this might be just what you need.
It’s got a sleek plastic design that fits perfectly on fences and railings.
I gave it a go on my white fence, and it meshed well with the backdrop.
And like most of our picks, this torch gives off a realistic-looking flame.
Like the other favorites on our list, this torch sports a flame that looks pretty real.
It’s decked out with 66 LEDs that emit a warm orange/yellow light, mimicking an actual fire.
And here’s the best part: it’s equipped with a 2,000 mAh battery.
This means it can keep that glow going for up to 10 hours.
Even on cloudy days, you don’t have to worry—the battery’s got enough juice to power through.
Now, it’s not all perfect—the torch does have a plastic frame, so it might not have the longevity of some metal options.
But considering the performance and the price, Aityvert does deliver a great product.
If you need something practical that does the job without drawing too much attention, this torch should be on your radar.
Pros
- Realistic flame
- Affordable price
- Up to 10 hours of run time
- IP65 waterproofing rating
- Easy to install
Cons
- Plastic frame that is prone to breakage over time
Best for Walls
TomCare Solar Wall Lights
Key Features
- Material: Metal
- Height: 7.7 inch
- Run Time: 10 hours
- Charge Time: 8 hours
- Waterproofing: IP65
- Warranty: 1 year
TomCare is at it again, this time with something special for your walls.
This torch isn’t just any torch—it’s sleek, metallic, and mounts right on your wall, looking more like a piece of art than just a light.
The best part?
It’s made of aluminum, so it’s light enough not to put any strain on your wall.
Plus, it comes with some sturdy hanging hooks that make mounting a breeze.
No more worrying about your outdoor lights tipping over—this one stays put.
And there’s an upgrade to mention: the sides of the lantern are now made of thick glass, which isn’t just durable but also enhances its classy look.
Flip it on at dusk, and you’ll see the classic warm orange/yellow glow that TomCare is famous for.
I do wish it was a bit larger, though.
At 7.7 inches tall and 5.5 inches wide, it’s pretty compact.
A bigger size would make it even more of a statement piece.
But, size aside, it’s a fantastic choice if you’re looking to add some warmth and charm to your walls without overwhelming them.
Pros
- Aluminum body with a retro style
- Thick glass sides
- Realistic-looking flame
- Easy to install
Cons
- Too small for large walls
Best for Posts
Blueyang Solar Post Flame Light
Key Features
- Material: Plastic
- Height: 10.75 inches
- Run Time: 8-10 hours
- Charge Time: 8 hours
- Waterproofing: IP55
- Warranty: 6 months
Postlights are all the rage these days, and Blueyang has stepped up its game with this one.
If you appreciate a touch of fantasy in your outdoor decor, this model, with its unique swirled design and 30 LED lights, might just be what you’re looking for.
Better yet, it’s 10.75” tall and 5.51” wide, so it won’t be a huge eyesore in your garden.
Also, this size can fit 4×4, 5×5, or even 6×6 posts, thus making it versatile enough to fit your needs.
One changing point is the waterproof rating which is only IP55.
So while it should be fine in light rain or snow, don’t expect it to last forever if it gets hit with a heavy downpour.
Also, the warranty period is only 6 months, so you may want to factor that in when deciding on a purchase.
Although I liked that the glass enclosure is sturdy, the base is a bit flimsy.
And the plastic construction can be a bit brittle if you’re not careful.
But overall, I think this is a great pick for anyone who wants to add a touch of magic to their backyard.
It looks beautiful day and night and will bring out the kid in all of us.
Pros
- The flame effect is very realistic
- Up to 10-hour run time
- Easy to install
Cons
- The top-heavy design makes the plastic base prone to breakage
- Short warranty period
- Lower waterproof rating (IP55)
Best Crackle Glass
TWINSLUXES Solar Flickering Flame Globe
Key Features
- Material: Plastic
- Height: 6.35 inches
- Run Time: 10-12 hours
- Charge Time: 8 hours
- Waterproofing: IP44
TWINSLUXES has rolled out a classic Crackle Glass torch that’s a real head-turner for any garden.
This torch features a globe made from crackle glass, giving it a vintage look that seems like it could have been crafted in the 1800s.
But don’t worry, it comes with all the modern perks.
Flip it on, and the four flickering LEDs inside start an orange and yellow glow that’ll brighten up your space with a charming, old-world feel.
It’s also super easy to mount on a fence post.
The size is pretty neat too—6.35 inches tall and 5.33 inches wide.
It’s large enough to catch the eye but won’t dominate your outdoor space.
However, it’s not all perfect.
The torch has an IP44 waterproof rating, which means it’s not the best at handling heavy rain.
You’ll want to bring it in when the weather turns bad.
Also, the light it emits is pretty dim, making it unsuitable as your main source of light.
But as an accent light? Perfect.
It adds just the right touch of old-world charm.
Overall, if you’re after a bit of classic style that’s easy on the wallet, this Crackle Glass torch by TWINSLUXES is a solid pick.
Pros
- Affordable price
- Stylish crackle glass design
- Easy to install
Cons
- Not bright enough
- Lower waterproof rating (IP44)
- No warranty, just a 30-day return policy
Best for Tables
PearlStar Solar Dancing Flame Table Lantern
Key Features
- Material: Metal
- Height: 6.1 inches
- Run Time: 6-10 hours
- Charge Time: 6-8 hours
- Waterproofing: IP44
- Warranty: 6 months
If your coffee table or outdoor dining area needs a touch of ambiance, then you can’t go wrong with PearlStar’s Solar Table Lantern.
It’s compact yet packs a punch with its elegant metal construction that’s built to last, even under tough weather conditions.
No worries about rust or breakage here.
Setting it up is easy—just let it soak up the sun for about 8 hours, and it’s good to glow for up to 10 hours.
However, it’s good to note that its waterproof rating is IP44, so it’s not the best fit for very wet weather and might need some shelter when it pours.
The size might be a bit smaller than expected, which can be a plus if you’re tight on space, but might be a bit of a letdown if you were expecting something larger.
Despite these minor flaws, this torch is ideal for you if all you want is something to entertain your guests or enjoy a lazy summer night.
Pros
- Stylish metal construction
- Realistic dancing flame
- Affordable price
- Easy to install
Cons
- The size is a bit small for some people’s taste
- Lower waterproof rating (IP44)
Best Dual Charge
TomCare Upgraded Solar Lantern with USB
Key Features
- Material: Metal
- Height: 12.2 inches
- Run Time: 10 hours
- Charge Time: 8 hours
- Brightness: 25 lumens
- Waterproofing: IP65
- Warranty: 1 year
Remember how I was bummed about the previous TomCare metal lantern being too short?
Well, TomCare has heard my gripes and they’ve just rolled out an upgraded version that I’m excited about!
This new one stands taller at 12.2 inches, making it just right for adding a bit of light to any outdoor area.
It’s perfect for sitting on a table or hanging up—wherever you need a little extra glow.
What’s cool about this lantern is that it’s dual-chargeable.
You can either hang it up in a sunny spot to charge using solar power or if you’re in a hurry, just plug it into an outlet with the USB port for a quick charge.
Either way, you get a bright 25 lumens of light that can keep shining for up to 10 hours straight.
Similar to its cousin, the waterproof rating is IP65 and you don’t have to worry about rain or snow ruining your lantern.
It also comes with a one-year warranty, giving you some peace of mind that you’re making a solid investment.
Although it’s a bit pricey, I think it’s worth the cost.
If you’re looking for reliable, versatile outdoor lighting that looks great and performs even better, this upgraded TomCare lantern is a great pick.
Pros
- Dual chargeable (solar or USB)
- Modern metal design
- Realistic dancing flame
- The height is suitable for any space
- IP65 waterproofing
- 1-year warranty
- Easy to install
Cons
- A bit pricey, but totally worth it
Best Garden Decoration
TomCare Solar Stump Lights
Key Features
- Material: Plastic
- Height: 8.1 inches
- Run Time: 10 hours
- Charge Time: 8 hours
- Brightness: 35 lumens
- Waterproofing: IP65
I’ve got to say, I’m not sponsored by TomCare or anything—I just really like their stuff!
And their Flickering Flame Solar Stump Lights are no exception.
These lights are like having a tiny bonfire in your yard, giving off that cozy, campfire vibe without any smoke or mess.
They shine with 35 lumens, just right for accent lighting—enough glow to light up a space without being too harsh.
And as we used to with TomCare, you can expect it to last for up to 10 hours with a single 8-hour charge.
Plus, they’re IP65 waterproof, so a bit of rain isn’t going to hurt them.
My only gripe?
They’re just 8.1 inches tall, which means they don’t stand out as much from a distance.
I wish they were a bit bigger, like actual statues—that would make a statement.
But, the overall look with the natural design and the realistic flickering flames is a win.
Pros
- Natural look and real fire log design
- Realistic flickering flames
- IP65 waterproofing
- 35 lumens of brightness
- Easy to install
Cons
- The small size might not fit big outdoor spaces
Best Figurine
VP Tiki Solar Powered Outdoor Decor LED Light
Key Features
- Material: Plastic
- Height: 14 inches
This time, we’re diving into some cool Polynesian vibes with the VP Tiki Solar Powered Outdoor Decor LED Light.
It’s the perfect pick if you’re planning a luau or want to bring some beach party atmosphere to your backyard.
This light emits a soft, warm glow that can transform your space into a little slice of tropical paradise.
However, there’s a bit of a snag with the size.
At 14 inches tall, it’s smaller than you might expect, which means it might not stand out as much in larger outdoor areas.
Also, the plastic construction isn’t the best—I’ve noticed some issues like cracking and discoloration over time.
Despite these points, I still think it’s a pretty neat option for sprucing up your outdoor gatherings.
It adds a fun, festive touch, so if you’re not too worried about durability and you’re after something that enhances the party vibe, this tiki light could still be worth considering.
Pros
- Unique design
- Soft ambiance
- Easy to install
Cons
- The small size
- Plastic material isn’t very durable
- A bit expensive for a plastic figure
- No warranty, just a 30-day return policy
Best Volcano
Tryme Solar Volcano Lights
Key Features
- Material: Plastic
- Height: 5.71 inches
- Run Time: 8-10 hours
- Charge Time: 6-8 hours
- Brightness: 8 lumens
Alright, let’s wrap up this list with something cool— the Tryme Solar Outdoor Volcano Fire Torch Lights.
These are perfect if you’re going for that outdoor volcano theme.
They’ve got these realistic flickering flames that seriously look like lava flowing down a mountain.
These torches will keep your area lit from dusk till dawn, running for about 8-10 hours after just a 6-hour charge in the sun.
However, I’ve got to point out that with only 8 lumens of brightness, they’re not the brightest.
You might need a few of them to light up your space well.
Size-wise, they’re a bit on the small side at just 5.71 inches tall, which isn’t quite as big as I’d like.
But despite their size, they’re still a good choice if you’re looking to add some dynamic, adventurous flair to your outdoor decor.
So, if you’re into hosting and want something that sparks conversation and adds a bit of drama, these volcano torches could be just the ticket.
Pros
- Realistic volcano design
- Flickering flame effect
- Easy to install
Cons
- Low Brightness (8 lumens) but enough for an accent light
- Small size
How to Choose the Best Solar Tiki Torch?
1. Real Looking Flames
When it comes to solar tiki torches, the key is all in the flame effect.
Sure, you could go for the one with the best battery, the coolest design, or the brightest light, but if the flame doesn’t look real, it’s kind of a bummer.
I’ve tested out a bunch of these lights myself to see which ones mimic the flicker of real fire the best.
After all my tests, the TomCare Upgraded Torch Lights stood out the most.
They nail that realistic, dancing flame look.
So, if you’re on the hunt for a solar tiki torch that looks as close to the real thing as possible, I’d recommend checking these out.
2. Torch Height
Most solar tiki torches start at about 32.6 inches tall, but they come with an extra ground stake that can boost their height up to 43 inches.
This height range generally works well for a variety of outdoor spaces.
They’re tall enough to be noticeable and add a nice touch of ambiance, but not so tall that they look out of place.
However, the best fit depends on the specifics of your space.
For example, if you’ve got a smaller, narrow garden, a shorter torch might blend in better and still give you the light you need.
But if you’re dealing with a larger area that’s well-furnished, opting for the full height can make a bigger impact.
So, when you’re shopping for a solar tiki torch, take a good look at your outdoor area and think about what height would complement it best.
3. Run Time
If you want your solar tiki torches to keep the party going all night, paying attention to their run time is key.
How long your torches will light up depends mostly on two things: the size of the battery and how many LEDs they have.
A bigger battery means the torch can stay lit for a longer time.
But remember, more LEDs or LEDs that use a lot of power will chew through that battery faster.
Be a bit skeptical about the run times you see in ads, though.
Those numbers often show the best-case scenario—like how long the torch might last on the perfect summer night.
From all the testing and digging I’ve done, I’d suggest going for torches that can last at least 8 hours in the summer and 6 hours when the nights get longer in the winter.
Out of all the ones I’ve checked out, the Aityvert Solar Tiki Torch Lights can glow for up to 12 hours.
But, they need a full 12 hours of sunlight to get charged up because their solar panel is a bit on the small side.
4. Charge Time
Nobody wants to wait all day for their solar lights to charge, only to find out they don’t work because the solar panel isn’t cutting it.
A small, inefficient panel means your lights won’t get enough juice to shine, turning what could be a cool garden feature into just a pricey piece of decor.
To avoid that hassle, I’ve picked out solar torches that come with efficient solar panels.
These are guaranteed to give you at least 1 hour of lighting for every hour they soak up the sun.
This way, you get reliable lighting after sunset, making sure your outdoor space is always ready for nighttime enjoyment.
5. Material & Quality
The material used for making tiki torch solar lights determines how long they’ll last.
Most are made from ABS plastic, which does the job well and can last a couple of years without any problems.
But if you’re looking for something that’ll stick around longer and can handle more wear and tear, you might want to check out ones made from stainless steel.
For instance, the TomCare Solar Metal Lights come with a UV protection layer.
They cost a bit more, but they’re tougher and won’t fade or break down as quickly in the sun.
If you don’t want the hassle of replacing your lights often, going for the sturdier option might be worth the extra bucks.
6. Weather Resistance
For any sort of outdoor lighting, weatherproofing is a must.
The ability to withstand elements is measured by an international standard called “IP rating”.
The IP rating has two numbers: the first one indicates the level of protection from solids (like dust), and the second one is about resistance to liquids.
For instance, an IP44 rating means the lights are protected from dust and splashes of water, which is fine for some light outdoor use.
An IP65 rating steps it up by protecting against low-pressure water jets, making it a safer bet for areas that might get hit by rain showers.
For your solar tiki torches or any outdoor lights, I’d recommend sticking with at least an IP65 rating.
Anything lower like IP44 might not cut it if you want your lights to last through rainy or snowy seasons without damage.
7. Brightness
Tiki torches are great for setting a mood with their flickering flames, but it’s also important to think about how bright they are.
You don’t want them so bright that they’re blinding, but you also don’t want them so dim that you can’t appreciate the cool dancing flame effect.
From what I’ve seen, 35 lumens is usually just right for most solar tiki torches.
It’s enough light to enjoy the glow without it taking over.
For solar lanterns, something around 20 lumens works well—it’s softer and perfect for a more subdued ambiance.
And for little figurines, you’ll want even less brightness, about 5-15 lumens, so they gently accent the space without overwhelming it.
8. Warranty
Last but not least, make sure the tiki torch you pick comes with some kind of warranty.
A warranty can give you peace of mind.
It means if something goes wrong with your tiki torches, you’re covered and the company will sort it out, usually by replacing them without a fuss.
I’ve taken care to only recommend lights that offer at least a 30-day return policy.
This way, you can give them a try in your own space and see how they fit with your setup, all without any risk.
If they don’t work out, you can just send them back.
So, always check the warranty and return policies to ensure you’re not stuck with something that isn’t right for you.
