Recommendations on placement of your Fireflyz
Of course, the most convincing environment for your Fireflyz is outdoors. Front yards, backyards, or gardens are ideal locations for Fireflyz. Just consider the following:
Your Fireflyz needs to receive a minimum of 2 hours of direct Sunlight
Make sure that a 32-inch perimeter around your is clear of bushes, flowers, tree branches, and other Fireflyz so that there is no interference with its movement.
No metal objects within 12 inches (there is a powerful magnet inside your Fireflyz and you don’t want it attracted to nearby metal objects.)
Other recommendations on placement
I find that Fireflyz are most convincing when they are no closer than 10 to 20 feet away from the observer. If you can place them behind low-lying bushes so that they are still visible thru the brush, this make for a most convincing effect.
If you have a backyard with a patio area looking out on a lawn or garden where you entertain guests, strategically place them toward the perimeter of your yard but still in sight from where you are entertaining.
Position them randomly around the yard. Some Flower beds or large flower pots are ideal for placing a FireFlyz or two.
If you have a set of 8 or more, set approximately half of them to the SLOWER timing setting. This “less is more” builds intrigue. If too many of them are too frequently appearing this is, in my opinion not as interesting.
Please do not leave Fireflyz out in the snow especially if they are buried in it. Snow is frozen water that can thaw and therefore submerge Fireflyz and Fireflyz cannot be submerge. While operating Fireflyz on top of a snow covered yard could be quite dazzling, it is not something to do for a prolonged period.
It is proably a good idea to gather them up and store them in the harsh winter or rainy months of the year so that you can extend thier usefulness.
