We see various styles and designs of courtyard lights in the market. So why are some courtyard lights priced so high? The high price of courtyard lights acts as a barrier to their popularity, especially with some profit-driven merchants taking advantage of unsuspecting customers and charging exorbitant prices for poor-quality products. Price is a crucial factor that determines the value for money; the advantages of the lights and their pricing being acceptable to the public is one of the essential factors for replacing traditional lighting. If low-end courtyard lights are priced similarly to high-quality ones, and customers experience issues with these overpriced products, they will inevitably lose confidence in outdoor street lights and courtyard lights, reverting to traditional lighting and hindering the development of the entire courtyard lighting industry.
Here, we will introduce the factors that make up the price of courtyard lights, allowing us to purchase products that offer value for money. The packaging cost of courtyard lights accounts for a significant portion of the price, roughly around 50%. We need to choose a more suitable packaging structure. Existing packaging does not meet the design requirements, leading to high design costs. Bold, innovative design is the way forward for product development; however, we often rely on copying the design principles of large companies, lacking innovation and confidence in our courtyard light designs.
The material cost of courtyard lights is not high; in fact, the chip cost only constitutes about 15% of the total price. Other costs primarily come from packaging, heat dissipation, structural costs, and power supply. From the breakdown of costs, reducing the price of courtyard lights comes from the manufacturing process. Simply demanding a lower price will not have a significant impact. The manufacturing of lamps needs a reasonable overall price and planning; solely requesting one part to be cheaper will not yield much effect. Instead, optimizing the overall structure of our designed lights is essential for economic efficiency.
Currently, design accounts for around 20% of the price of courtyard lights, with some instances being higher. As technology advances, the power supply should reasonably account for about 5-10%. In reality, heat dissipation design is straightforward; there are two key angles: first, the path between the courtyard light chip and the external heat dissipation component should be as short as possible; the shorter the path, the better your heat dissipation design. Second, heat dissipation resistance needs sufficient pathways to effectively transfer heat. This cost mainly relates to structure; the expense incurred for heat dissipation isn’t significant. Heat dissipation should maintain around 20% of the cost. In the past, low manual labor costs in our country have led to a very low pricing of courtyard lights. Recognizing 20% as reasonable, the real question lies in how to innovate more effectively and design more rationally. Structural design in lighting is a weak point, significantly hindering the development of courtyard lights and needing improvement in quality. The industry needs individuals to innovate, develop design talents in courtyard lighting, optimize products, and create new items. This way, the courtyard lighting industry can develop healthily, achieve sustainable growth, and allow everyone in the industry to benefit and thrive.
