Solar street lights have become a popular product in today’s lighting industry. Solar street lights are energy-saving, environmentally friendly, safe, and durable. Compared to traditional street lights, they can function normally in areas with inadequate power grids or harsh environments. Because of this, many believe that the price of solar street lights is significantly higher than that of traditional street lights due to their numerous advantages. In reality, this belief is incorrect, as the price of solar street lights is determined by many factors, which are reflected in the following aspects:
1. The daily illumination time varies, which affects the configuration as well.
2. The height of the light pole (the height from the light source to the ground) also varies. Different heights require different power sources, leading to price differences.
3. The number of guaranteed rainy days varies. Consider the difference between three consecutive rainy days and six consecutive rainy days; the configurations will certainly differ, resulting in price variations.
4. The project location, or the usage location, must be evaluated for local sunlight conditions. For instance, for a 6-meter 30W light source with six hours of illumination daily and a requirement for three consecutive rainy days, the needed configuration may differ based on sunlight availability, illustrating the principle of purchasing the right product rather than the expensive one.
5. The requirement for brightness may vary. Many customers overlook this aspect; even with the same 30W light source, there can be brightness differences among products from different manufacturers. Moreover, for a 6-meter pole, one supplier might provide a 30W source, another a 20W source, and yet another a 15W source, so prices will naturally differ.
These are the factors that determine the price of solar street lights. Additionally, for lighting products, lifespan determines value, and value determines price; therefore, the price of solar street lights is also influenced by the lifespan of the fixtures.
