Hi guys I'm having a problem with some of these cheap solar garden lights I have and I has hoping someone may be able to help me. I bought them a few months ago but after they came on the first night they just never came back on again. Even when I remove the batteries and recharge them, once I replace them it still doesn't work. I have drawn the PCB for this device below and taken some photos as I'm unsure as to how this works because the IC package has a designation I cannot find any information on at all. Initially I thought it maybe a voltage comparator so it switches between charge and discharge and dawn and dusk but as I cannot check the part labelled "8599B" I have no idea what it is doing. Has anyone come across this kind of circuit before?
Thanks as usual for any help guys
P.S. Batteries in this are 3x 1.2V Ni -MH in parallel configuration and the LEDs are 6x White 5mm also all in parallel.
