With the widespread use of solar energy in various regions, many manufacturers of solar street lights have gradually emerged. However, many of these manufacturers focus solely on commercial profits and lack significant technical patent reserves. Some manufacturers still use older gel lead-acid batteries, while our company has already adopted 3.2V lithium iron phosphate batteries.
Some consumers may have misconceptions about the voltage of these batteries. Let’s explore some knowledge about lithium iron phosphate batteries used in solar street lights.
1. Most lithium iron phosphate battery manufacturers are publicly listed companies specializing in electric vehicle production. They are designed for outdoor environments with a 3C discharge intensity. When used in street lights, the charging intensity is only 0.1-0.3C. Batteries used in vehicles can last for 8 years, while those used in solar street lights can last for 15 years without any issue.
2. The controller and LED are directly bonded together, greatly improving reliability. Installation is as simple as plugging in a DC connector.
3. The power generation in low-light conditions is significantly better. While anyone can successfully create photovoltaic street lights on sunny days, the key is to harness valuable power generation during overcast or rainy days. The principle is simple: photovoltaic effects generate electromotive force (voltage) based on light intensity. To put it simply, when driving uphill, do you start in first gear or fourth gear? A 3.2V battery will not cut off weak electrical current charging on rainy days.
4. Lithium iron batteries do not contain heavy metals or unique resources, making them a cheap and clean energy storage solution. In contrast, cobalt in ternary lithium batteries is very rare, and cobalt prices have tripled just last year.
Bitpott manufacturers of solar street lights specialize in the research, production, and sales of outdoor lighting such as solar and LED lights. With years of production experience and advanced manufacturing equipment, they guarantee quality, reasonable prices, and configurations.
