In villages with good infrastructure, wide streets and red brick houses form neighborhoods, with some even featuring small high-rise buildings. With the height of the houses in mind, solar street lights are now very suitable for rural areas, as many villages have implemented road lighting, showcasing the highlights of rural economic development. So, what aspects should be paid attention to when choosing solar street light controllers for rural areas? Below are some insights from the Century Sunshine Lighting editor.
When selecting solar street light controllers for rural areas, the following three aspects should be considered:
1. Choose solar street light controllers with high charging efficiency that feature a three-stage charging control method: strong charge, balanced charge, and float charge. Controllers should utilize MCU intelligent control, which calculates internally and can continuously provide maximum power to charge the batteries. This is especially important during winter or periods with insufficient sunlight, as the charging efficiency of MCU intelligent control modes is approximately 20% higher than that of non-MCU intelligent controllers.
2. Solar street lights should have high precision control. High precision is a comprehensive reflection of the design of new rural solar street lights, as well as an indicator of the quality materials used and the production process. Non-high-precision controlled solar street lights often suffer from high failure rates and poor stability due to scientific design flaws and inferior materials, resulting in low market quality.
3. Only choose controllers with dual independent control paths, as this facilitates power adjustment for new rural solar street lights. During periods of low pedestrian traffic at night, one or both lighting paths can automatically turn off to save energy, and adjustments can also be made for the LED lights. In addition to selecting for energy-saving features, when setting the controller’s undervoltage value, try to keep it at ≥10.8V to avoid battery over-discharge.
The above points regarding what to pay attention to when selecting solar street light controllers for rural areas are shared here. I hope this article has been helpful.
