As an important lighting measure for cities and rural areas, road lighting greatly benefits our daily lives. Solar LED street lights, being outdoor high-mounted fixtures, can be troublesome to maintain if issues arise frequently. Therefore, selecting a quality solar LED street light is particularly important.
This discussion will focus on key considerations when purchasing solar LED street lights.
When selecting solar LED street lights, prevent counterfeit chips and low-end chips.
The core of solar LED street lights’ illumination is the chip, which directly determines the lamp’s performance. Certain unreliable manufacturers exploit customers’ lack of expertise and, in a cost-cutting pursuit, use low-priced chips, resulting in customers inadvertently overpaying for low-quality products and leading to significant economic losses, while also posing severe quality risks to the LED light source.
Prevent mislabeling of configurations and exaggerated configuration parameters in solar street lights.
The competition for solar street lights has led to a decrease in price profits, which has, in turn, caused many manufacturers to compromise on quality and mislabel product parameters. Issues may arise in several aspects, including the wattage of the light source, the wattage of solar panels, the battery capacity, and even the materials used for the street light pole. This situation is also driven by customers constantly comparing prices and insisting on lower prices, coupled with certain manufacturers’ practices.
Poor heat dissipation and unreasonable configurations in LED solar street light systems.
In terms of heat dissipation design, the junction temperature of LED chips decreases significantly with every 10-degree rise, affecting the lifespan of semiconductor devices. Due to the high brightness requirements for LED solar street lights and their operation in harsh conditions, inadequate heat dissipation can lead to rapid aging of the LEDs and reduced stability. Additionally, unreasonable configurations often result in actual performance falling short of expectations.
When purchasing solar street lights, it is crucial to not focus solely on price. Cheaper products may cut corners in several areas. Instead, customers should pay closer attention to the quality of the products and whether the after-sales service is satisfactory to ensure the purchase of quality products.
