Rural LED solar streetlights are widely used in road construction. These solar streetlights are environmentally friendly, convenient to use, and have a longer lifespan compared to ordinary streetlights. However, certain factors can affect their lifespan. Below, we will introduce some of these factors from the perspective of a solar streetlight manufacturer.
Reason one: The light source of solar streetlights. The quality and type of light source can vary, leading to different lifespans. Currently, the light sources used in streetlights include high-pressure sodium lamps, metal halide lamps, induction lamps, and LED lamps, with high-pressure sodium lamps and LED lamps being the most commonly used. Sodium lamps are inexpensive but have a shorter lifespan, while LED lamps can last over 50,000 hours. Theoretically, if used for 8 hours a day, they can last for several years. Therefore, although the price of LED lamps is slightly higher, their long lifespan and energy-saving benefits make them a cost-effective choice in the long run.
Reason two: The controller of solar streetlights. The controller is a core component in the solar streetlight system. It controls, monitors, and protects the solar panels, batteries, and load. By effectively managing the battery’s operational state, it also indirectly protects the load (the solar streetlight) and provides an effective and relatively stable working environment, especially under critical conditions such as insufficient battery power. A high-precision and stable-performance controller plays a key role.
Reason three: The light source starter. Different starting methods require different drive power supplies or ballasts, which significantly affect the light source, especially for LED sources. Typically, a constant current source is used for driving, and the quality of the constant current source and its set parameters are crucial. Key aspects include current accuracy, output efficiency, and protection circuit parameters.
Reason four: The batteries of solar streetlights. The quality and performance of the batteries directly affect the lifespan of the streetlights. Generally, reliable batteries are chosen, which may be more expensive than regular manufacturer’s batteries, but high-quality batteries offer a longer service life.
