Solar Street Light Batteries
come in various types,
Bitpott Solar Street Lights
commonly use maintenance-free lead-acid batteries and lithium batteries. So, what are the differences between lead-acid batteries and lithium batteries for solar LED street lights?
1. Durability:
Lead-acid batteries generally have a deep charge and discharge cycle of about
300
times, possess memory effect,
and have a lifespan of about two years. If a solar lead-acid battery is filled with liquid, it may need replenishing if it gets too hot or if the charging duration shortens after a period of use. On the other hand, the durability of lithium batteries used in street lights is much stronger,
consuming energy at a slower rate,
allowing charge and discharge cycles to exceed
500
times without memory effect,
with a typical lifespan of
4
—
5
years.
2. Size and Weight:
Generally, lead-acid batteries weigh between
16
and
30
kilograms, being relatively large in size;
while lithium batteries typically weigh around
2.5
—
3
kilograms,
making them smaller in volume,
thus easier to transport and handle.
3. Battery Capacity:
Lead-acid batteries have a capacity of around
20
Ah, while lithium batteries have a capacity ranging from
8
to
10
Ah.
4. Travel Distance:
With a fully charged
48
volt battery,
both lead-acid and lithium batteries can provide a travel distance of
30
—
40
kilometers for electric vehicles, depending mainly on the size of the motor used.
5. Environmental Impact:
Lead-acid batteries can cause pollution during production,
and improper recycling may also result in environmental damage;
whereas lithium batteries are comparatively more environmentally friendly.
Both lead-acid and lithium batteries for solar street lights have their advantages. The specific battery configuration for solar LED street lights depends on the design of the solar LED street light system, ensuring compatibility is essential.
