Solar street lights are independent lighting systems, which means they generate electricity for lighting without connecting to the power grid. During the day, solar panels convert light energy into electrical energy and store it in batteries. At night, the energy stored in the batteries powers the light source, making it a typical power generation and discharging system. As for solar panels, everyone knows they are power-generating devices made primarily from pure silicon, with a lifespan of at least 20 years. Next, the LED light source has a lifespan of over 50,000 hours, typically lasting more than 10 years under normal use. Then there’s the battery, with commonly used solar-specific maintenance-free batteries in the country having a normal lifespan of 5 to 8 years. Some manufacturers guarantee usage for 10 or 8 years, which is misleading to customers. In normal use, the battery often needs replacing every 3 to 5 years, especially from large manufacturers; smaller manufacturers tend to have shorter lifespans. After 3 to 5 years, the actual capacity of the battery significantly decreases compared to its initial capacity. The cost of replacing a battery is not too high, and it can be replaced where it was purchased. The fourth component is the controller, which is relatively inexpensive, costing about 100 RMB, with a lifespan of around 5 years. Finally, for the lamp post, most companies provide hot-dip galvanized and spray-painted lamp posts that can last 10 to 20 years without damage.
