What is the Key to Extending the Lifespan of Solar Street Lights?


In recent years, solar street lights have been widely promoted and popularized. However, in many places, after two or three years of use, solar street lights either go out completely or require replacement of parts to be reused. If this problem is not solved, the advantages of solar street lights will be completely lost.


Factors affecting the service life of solar street lights


We must extend the service life of solar street lights. Through market research by visiting engineering companies, the main reasons for solar street lights going out, light not working, and short service life are quite complex. Some of the reasons are that many small manufacturers in the market have no technical strength, and their solar street lights are composed of various parts purchased; they use inferior materials and accessories with no guaranteed quality, no core technology, and cannot achieve control energy-saving, and extend service life. On the other hand, in some areas, when purchasing wholesale solar street lights, they did not realize the important role of technological innovation in solar street lights. Low-price bidding has resulted in rampant inferior products in the market, seriously affecting the service life of solar street lights.

The key to extending the service life of solar street lights


Under normal circumstances, the service life of solar street lights will exceed 5 years, and the service life of street light poles and solar panels will generally last for more than 15 years. The service life of ordinary LED light sources is about 20,000 hours, while those produced by the regular solar lights supplier can last up to 50,000 hours, about 10 years. The weak point that affects solar street lights is the battery. Without mastering core energy-saving technology, lithium batteries generally last about 3 years. If it is a lead-acid battery or a gel battery (a type of lead-acid battery), if the electricity generated every day is only enough for one day, that is, a service life of about one year, it needs to be replaced after more than two years.


On the surface, the battery is an important part that determines the service life of solar street lights, but this is not the case in reality. If the same brightness can be achieved, the amount of battery used will be reduced, so the battery capacity for each deep cycle can be extended to prolong the service life of solar storage batteries. However, the problem is, what can be used to extend the usage time of each deep cycle of the battery? The answer is smarter and more energy-saving constant current and controller technology.


Some manufacturers combine intelligent digital constant current control technology, and the highest energy-saving rate is over 80% compared with traditional solar street lights. Due to super energy-saving, it can control the degree of deep discharge of the battery, extend the discharge time of each battery, and greatly extend the service life of bulk solar lights. Its service life is about 3-5 times that of ordinary solar street lights.
