How do you pull the base of the lights down to fold down the extensions? I can twist the cap at the end slightly, and tried pushing and pulling.

If you mean the feet at the end of the lights, reach into one of the holes and gently ease one of the silver rods out (I use the tip of my nail, I guess you can use something else small), and all three will pop out. Then you just pull them all the way out. There are also additional small extensions folded into the feet.

The bottom of the product should twist off, then securely twist the opposite direction to close after inserting new batteries. Thank you for shopping with us! ~GigglesWorld

I'm guessing a year and half later, the original question asker has either figured this out or taken a sledgehammer to the lantern, but for others wondering, this might help clarify.Yes, hold the black rubber base on bottom with one hand. But that is not the part that actually turns and opens. The lantern separates just above the power button. So hold the bottom in one hand and the lamp cover in the other and twist in opposite directions. It should separate easily. You'll see the white disc with the lights on it and directional arrows for opening/closing the disc to access/close the battery compartment.Perhaps there are two different designs out there, but that is how mine opens.

Its hard to explain wo showing u but the poles pull out a little before u bend them- lift them up and then fold. I watched a video online of some lady demoing putting it up and taking it down. Google it and I'm sure u will find it. Hope that helps

Not sure exactly what you're asking... the base screws into place. Once it's attached, you could unscrew it and then move it to another place, but that wouldn't be easy. There is an elbow joint that easily allows the light itself to angle up or down (or side to side, depending on how you mount it) after it's been mounted.

Hi Karen I had the same problem so I turned it upside down and and found 2 buttons so press these and gently push down the corners of the mesh base where they meet the 4 down poles. There are rings you have to push down a little bit, do this alternatively to release the pressure from the mesh base, once all four corners have moved a little bit you will be able to lift the mesh base up and when you do this the whole thing will collapse. if you need any more help just email me again regards Peter

I remember I had a hard time putting the lights in. Thought I was going to break them.I would try inserting them again. If that does not work, return it.Hope this helps!

push in the pop outs and lower the legs down, then you can fold in the legs, hope this helps.

I checked my daughters light and I didn't see anything to tighten. I assume that maybe one of the little round circles on the side of the base might pop off and that maybe you could then get to a screw to tighten. I didn't want to pop anything off on hers in case I'm wrong and it couldn't be put back on. Her mirror is still really tight where it just stays wherever it is placed. Could you fold a small piece of paper and put between the outer ring and the mirror itself and wedge it in such a way that it will stay put where you want it? Sorry I couldn't be of any more help than that.

I have found it easy to release most of the time. You might try a little dry lube to see if that helps. We have three of the lights here and they all interchange without an issue.

Remove the cover with the palm of your hand (twist counter clockwise).Unscrew the little bulb and replave with a similar type. Put the cover back on. Note: at least your lights work; mine I'm still figuring out why they don't light up!)

Very careful twist the light cover or to be extra careful, just go ahead and twist the whole thing off the ceiling. That's what I did to ensure I didn't break the glass.

At the end of the end cap there are the two recessed areas on each side. One side has a tiny plastic latch that holds it shut. Take a small screwdriver and push the latch down while prying open the end cap.

HelloThe little plastic cover just snaps onto the lighting unit. You will be able to just pull it off. You might have to use a butter knife or screw driver (unplug everything first!) to get in between the plastic cover and the unit itself. But there isnt any screws or fasteners holding it. Just plastic grooves that hold it in place.. like legos or models that kids build. Hope this helps

I've had the same problem. The thing is designed to allow the cover to be pulled down part way to change a bulb. If you pull the 'wings' all the way out, it's awkward to get them back... you kind of need three hands (or more - if you need a flashlight). You need to pinch the wing rods completely together - and then push them into one slot in the middle of each side of the inside top of the box - while you're trying to hold the rest up - that's why it's tough. Once you get them started into the small slots, you can just push the cover up from the outside. The wings will expand after you push the cover up, holding it in place... good luck.

Each string of hanging lights were twist-tied together. I just stretched out the main line that all were attached to then separated the bunches one at a time (10 bunches). To maintain you sanity make sure you have a lot of space when you're separating. I saved the twist ties for when I took it down. I made sure I plugged them in and tried them on each setting to ensure that all the lights and settings were working before untangling.
