How to fix defective lanterns....
These work great ...... When they work. I ordered 6 boxes of these and out of the 24 lanterns 5 of them didn't work. Lucky for me my husband is super handy and after taking them apart twice finally figured out what was wrong with them and was able to fix all of them. The green ones all needed the positive end of the battery terminal pried out so they could reach the batteries to make proper contact. Easy fix, but not very nice for someone who isn't lucky enough to have a handyman on hand. Put a knife behind the terminal on the end with extra ribs, and carefully pry it out a little bit. Fixed every one of ours and they all work great now.
