FAQ

| How does the floating lantern stay in place? | The lantern is mounted on a buoyant pontoon base secured with anchor cables to the lake bed. It is designed for calm water conditions up to Force 6 wind. For venues with stronger currents, reinforced anchoring systems are available. |
| Is the electrical system safe for water? | Yes. All electrical components are IP67 waterproof-rated with sealed junction boxes, GFCI-protected circuits, and submersible-grade cabling. We provide full safety documentation for each water installation. |
| What water depth and area are needed? | Minimum water depth is 0.8m; maximum 5m. The required water area is approximately 3× the lantern footprint for safe anchoring. Send us your lake or pond dimensions for a site-specific proposal. |
| Can the light colors be customized? | Absolutely. Our LED system supports full RGB color-changing, preset light show programs, and DMX-compatible synchronized music control. We’ll program to match your event theme. |
| How long does on-site installation take? | Standard 6m boat: 2-3 days including floating base assembly, electrical hookup, and lighting calibration. Multi-unit fleet installations: 5-7 days depending on quantity. |
| Can I order multiple boats that coordinate? | Yes — synchronized fleet installations are one of our specialties. 3 to 20+ boats can run coordinated light shows across the same water body with wireless DMX control. |
| What maintenance is required? | We provide a 12-month structural and electrical warranty. Annual servicing includes pontoon inspection, LED testing, and fabric condition checks. Optional maintenance packages available. |
| How do I transport it to my venue? | The lantern ships in modular steel frame sections and folded silk panels in a standard 40-foot container. Assembly instructions and remote video support are included. |
