What is the lifespan of solar street lights related to?

With the development of my country's new rural construction project, many rural areas have also installed street lights. In order to comply with the concept of energy saving and environmental protection, and to consider practical reasons such as the difficulty of installing municipal circuit lights in rural areas, solar street lights are installed in most rural areas. Solar street lights are also familiar to the common people for these reasons. However, the quality of solar street lights on the market is uneven. Many rural areas will not only have the phenomenon of 'lights on and off roads' after installation, but also the service life of solar street lights is only one to two years, which is widely criticized by people. So what does the life of solar street light have to do with it? Next, let's take a look at the lighting.

Solar street lights are mainly composed of street light poles, solar batteries, controllers, LED street light lamp holders, and solar panels. The life of these components directly affects the life of solar street lights.

One, street light pole

The normal service life of street light poles after hot-dip galvanizing is one year. In order to reduce the price of solar street lights, some poor manufacturers use low-wall thickness steel plates and cold galvanizing. Such street light poles will rust by the year, which is a serious situation. In the event of a big typhoon, the dangerous phenomenon of street lamp pole breaking will occur. And our company has always insisted on high quality, and all street light poles are produced in accordance with standards, with excellent quality, and guarantee that they will not be damaged or rusted every year.

2. LED street light lamp holder

The normal service life of LED street lamp holders is up to one year. And our company uses Bridgelux LED chips, the life span can reach more than H.

Three, solar panels

Solar panels use high-efficiency polycrystalline silicon wafers, with high conversion efficiency and a service life of up to years under normal conditions.

Fourth, solar street light controller

The waterproof grade of the solar street light controller is at least IP, and the service life is up to one year.

Five, solar battery

Solar storage batteries are an important factor in the short life of solar street lights. At present, lithium batteries are generally used in the market. In order to obtain higher benefits, many poor solar street lamp manufacturers will make 'articles' on lithium batteries: cutting corners, configuring false standards and using .V lithium iron phosphate lithium batteries.

.Configure virtual label

The configuration of the false standard may cause the lithium battery to run frequently under load, which will increase the number of cycles of the lithium battery and seriously affect the life of the solar street light.

..V Lithium Iron Phosphate Battery

At present, most of these batteries in the market are eliminated by a certain domestic automobile battery factory, and are used in large quantities by many solar street light manufacturers. This type of battery has a short cycle time and is not resistant to low temperatures. A large part of the solar street lamps that have problems use this type of battery.

The life of the solar street light is the life of these components. As long as any one of the components has a problem, the solar street light cannot be used normally. Among these components, the most important one is the solar battery. We need to use the solar battery with normal V voltage so that the service life can be much longer than two years. Lighting has always pursued high-quality products. The solar street lights we produce have a long life and excellent quality, and have won praise from many customers! Everyone is welcome to come and buy!
