Applications of Different Types of Solar Street Lights
Solar street lights are an indispensable part of illuminating rural roads. They provide a sense of security for people traveling at night and enrich their nighttime activities. Therefore, choosing the right solar street lights and the right solar light supplier is very important. However, there are many types of solar street lights, each with different applications. So, how do you choose the right solar lights, and how can you avoid being misled into buying unsuitable ones? Liking Energy will tell you.
Split-Type Solar Street Lights
Split-type solar street lights do not have specific lighting occasions and they are the most common and widely applicable. Whether in the south or north, in squares, streets, or residential areas, these lights can adapt to various installation environments and meet different configuration requirements. In areas with prolonged rainy weather, higher configuration is needed with a larger battery panel and capacity. In places with good lighting conditions, lower configurations with smaller battery panels and capacities are sufficient.
Split-type solar street lights can be further categorized into lithium battery solar street lights, lead-acid battery solar street lights, and gel battery solar street lights. In the former, the battery is mounted on the lamp post or the panel bracket, while in the latter two cases, the battery needs to be buried underground. Lithium batteries outperform lead-acid batteries in terms of performance, transportation, and installation, so lithium battery solar street lights are usually the first choice.
The components of split-type solar street lights exist independently and can be combined arbitrarily as needed, offering strong adaptability and diverse designs. They can quickly integrate into any environment where they are installed.
Integrated Solar Street Lights
Integrated solar street lights are relative to split-type ones. What does integration mean? The light source, battery, and solar panel are combined into one unit.
A single light head of an integrated solar street light includes the solar panel, lithium battery, controller, and light source. Its installation is convenient, with a simple and elegant appearance, requiring no complex assembly or wiring. Just mount it on a lamp post or hang it on a wall, and it begins to work.
Integrated solar street lights are equipped with an intelligent radar sensing system that automatically turns on based on the movement of objects. Such design not only saves stored energy and extends the street light's endurance but also highlights the concept of smart street lighting.
Integrated solar street lights are high-end and stylish. However, since the size of the solar panel and lithium battery is limited by the size of the light head, they are more suitable for areas with lower configuration requirements.
p.s. Split-type and integrated solar street lights cover a broad range. Other types of solar lights can be classified under these two categories based on installation methods and internal structures. For example, both split-type and integrated solar lights can be wall-mounted, clamped, or installed on lamp posts, offering flexible installation environments with good results and wide market application.
Solar Flood Lights
Solar flood lights are suitable for roof terraces, garden gates, courtyards, open-air balconies, and corridors. They have a compact design and can be matched according to the scale of the building, creating a wonderful ambiance. Solar flood lights are space-saving, easy to install, affordable, and suitable for general households, making them perfect for rural areas. Given adequate lighting conditions, using flood lights for courtyard lighting is a highly cost-effective choice.
The solar system consists of the bracket, LED lamp head, solar light controller, battery (including battery insulation box), and lamp post. Solar cell modules generally use monocrystalline or polycrystalline solar cells; LED lamp heads generally opt for high-power LED light sources; controllers typically feature light control, time control, overcharge and over-discharge protection, and reverse connection protection. More advanced controllers have functions such as adjusting the lighting time according to the seasons, half-power functionality, and intelligent charging and discharging. The solar lights operate fully automatically, requiring no trenching or wiring, but the lamp post needs to be mounted on a pre-installed component (concrete base).
Liking Energy specializes in providing efficient and reliable solar street lighting solutions for various environments. Our product line covers split-type solar street lights, integrated solar street lights, and flood lights to meet the diverse needs of different users.
