With the rapid development of green energy-saving construction in rural areas, selecting suitable solar street lights is essential for energy-saving lighting along rural roads.
In the context of new rural development, the strong support of national energy conservation and emission reduction policies has facilitated the effective application of solar street lights for rural road lighting. The configuration of solar street lights has become a focal point of interest in current rural construction projects.
After a certain period of use, components such as battery controllers need replacement, as batteries have a limited cycle life. Typically, well-configured solar street lights can last for five years. However, some projects that involve low-cost purchasing may result in subpar product quality and configurations. Consequently, such lights may not function properly within one to two years. Additionally, some manufacturers may lack adequate after-sales support, necessitating a search for a new solar street light manufacturer for maintenance and repair.
Currently, we receive numerous orders from clients facing these issues. Some clients have been using their lights for five years but are unable to locate the manufacturer, while others encounter companies that do not provide after-sales service (clients are hesitant to pay for services from these manufacturers). Regardless of whether the issues stem from the product itself or the expiration of component lifespans, maintenance challenges are increasing.
Generally, the components needing replacement in solar street lights are the controllers and batteries. However, some fixtures installed earlier may have larger power light sources, requiring larger batteries. These older light sources often have lower efficiency and higher self-consumption rates. In such cases, replacing a battery and controller can cost more than installing a new system. Therefore, we recommend that clients also replace the light source. The efficiency of LED light sources has significantly improved, allowing a 15W source to replace the previous 30W one, particularly for manufacturers exporting high-power LED lamp beads with lumen outputs between 150 to 160 lumens. Although some lower-cost surface-mounted lamp beads on the market offer inadequate efficiency, the price is significantly lower. Replacing the entire system not only enhances stability but also does not increase costs while improving brightness.
