The use of LED solar street lights can reduce electricity consumption for lighting, and they are a method of saving energy. Therefore, the popularity of LED solar street lights has been promoted by the “Green Lighting Project,” and in recent years, the market for LED solar street lights has maintained continuous growth. As a representative of new energy, solar street lights have advantages that ordinary street lights do not have, which is why LED solar street lights are very popular. However, with the acceleration of development, four major hidden dangers in the use of solar street light lighting have gradually emerged.
1. Unqualified accessories for solar LED street lights
Solar panels should be purchased from regular manufacturers to ensure quality, as they have more complete testing standards and equipment. When purchasing solar street lights from manufacturers, it is important to note that there are no corresponding technical indicators monitored by the government. The issue of underweight solar panels can lead to a power shortage in some manufacturers, causing solar street lights to not function properly.
2. High failure rate of solar LED street light light sources
The common configuration for solar LED street lights is LED. In addition to the LED light source, the inverter can result in power loss, thus the design and production must be very professional. Some manufacturers often use low-cost sales tactics, causing products to fail in a short period, which has a significant negative impact on the application of solar street lights. The heat generated by LED light sources directly affects their lifespan; poor thermal management can cause the LED light source to exceed 40W, which necessitates the application of cooling integration light sources.
3. Short lifespan of solar batteries
Generally, batteries from regular manufacturers can be warranted for three years. If there are issues within two years, the battery quality is likely problematic. The temperature for battery installation should be at 25℃, and they must be ventilated and protected from rain to prevent immersion. The working environment temperature of the battery should not be neglected. Some manufacturers reduce costs by cutting back on the installation of poles or batteries, which can cause damage and reduce battery life. Batteries are a crucial component of the solar street light system, and their performance and lifespan directly affect the operational effectiveness of solar street lights.
4. Controller functions are not fully developed
The control and protective functions of the battery’s charge and discharge controller are not sufficiently developed, leading to damage due to over-discharging. The controller should manage the battery’s State of Charge (SOC) control method to ensure that the battery SOC does not fall below the set value, thus protecting the battery from being over-discharged.
