How to choose solar garden lights

As we all know, there is a great demand for garden lights in the market. In the past, garden lights were only used for decoration of villas and communities. Today, garden lights have been widely used in urban slow lanes, narrow alleys, residential communities, tourist attractions, parks, squares, courtyard corridors, etc. Today’s garden lights can not only decorate the city well, but also bring people a sense of security when they go out at night.

Solar garden light provider TIANXIANG products have been widely favored in overseas markets with their excellent performance and innovative design.

Garden lights need to be turned on for many years and also need to be turned on at night, but it is not necessary. Some people are worried that the electricity bill will be high if they use garden lights all year round, so they will choose solar garden lights. At present, there are many types of solar garden lights. Let’s take a look at the advantages of solar garden lights and how to choose them.

Advantages of solar garden lights

1. Super long life

Using semiconductor chips to emit light, no filament, no glass shell, not afraid of vibration, not easy to damage. The service life can reach 50,000 hours (the life of ordinary incandescent lamps is only one thousand hours, and the life of ordinary energy-saving lamps is only eight thousand hours).

2. High light efficiency

90% of the electrical energy is converted into visible light (80% of the electrical energy of ordinary incandescent lamps is converted into heat energy, and only 20% of the electrical energy is converted into light energy).

3. Protect eyesight

DC drive, no flicker.

4. High safety factor

The required voltage and current are small, the heat generation is small, and it is not easy to cause safety hazards. It can be used in dangerous places such as mines.

How to choose solar garden lights

1. Solar panels

Among many solar cells, the most common and practical ones are mainly monocrystalline solar panels. The electrical performance parameters of monocrystalline solar cells are relatively stable, and the conversion efficiency is also high.

2. Solar charge and discharge controller

Regardless of the size of solar lamps, a good charge and discharge control circuit is crucial. In order to extend the service life of the battery, its charge and discharge conditions must be limited to prevent the battery from overcharging and deep discharge. In addition, since the input energy of the solar photovoltaic power generation system is extremely unstable, the control of battery charging in the photovoltaic power generation system is more complicated than that of ordinary batteries. For the design of solar lamps, success or failure often depends on the success or failure of the charge and discharge control circuit. Without a good charge and discharge control circuit, solar lamps cannot work properly.

3. Solar energy storage battery

Since the input energy of the solar photovoltaic power generation system is not stable enough, it generally needs to be equipped with a battery system to work. Solar lamps are no exception and must be equipped with batteries to work. The selection of battery capacity generally follows the following principles: First, on the premise of being able to meet night lighting, store as much electricity as possible from the solar cell components during the day, and at the same time be able to store enough electricity to meet the lighting needs of continuous rainy nights. If the battery capacity is too small, it can neither meet the needs of night lighting nor the needs of continuous use; if the battery capacity is too large, the solar panel cannot provide enough charging current, and the battery is often in a state of power loss, which affects the battery life and is easy to cause waste.

4. Load

Solar lamp products have the advantages of energy saving and environmental protection. Of course, the load must also be energy-saving and have a long life. We generally use LED lamps. LED has a long life and low operating voltage, which is very suitable for solar garden lights.

Solar garden lights can meet people’s concept of saving electricity and using garden lights safely, and have many advantages. Consumers can choose by themselves when buying solar garden lights, or directly buy products from well-known brands to ensure their quality.

Solar garden light provider TIANXIANG meets the rigid demand of overseas users for low-carbon lighting with its intelligent light control + human body sensing dual-mode system, 12-hour continuous rainy day endurance technology and modular easy-to-maintain structure.
