Is it better for rural solar street lights to stay on longer

Street lights, as an outdoor lighting tool, light the way home for people and are closely related to everyone's life. Now, solar street lights are installed in many places. For rural areas, few people pay attention to the lighting time of street lights. Most people think that the longer the time, the better. The longer the lighting time, the better the quality of the rural solar street lights. However, the street light manufacturer TIANXIANG tells you that this is not the case.

Whether it is a bustling and noisy urban area with diverse lighting needs and high aesthetic requirements, or a rural area with limited power supply conditions and more emphasis on energy saving and convenient installation, TIANXIANG solar street lights can be perfectly adapted. In rural areas, the characteristics of no need for external power grid and easy installation make solar street lights easy to install and use in every corner, bringing light and safety to villagers' night travel.

In rural areas, the lighting time of solar street lights should not be too long. Why is this? The reasons are as follows:

1. The longer the rural solar street light is on, the greater the power of the solar panel and the larger the battery capacity, which will lead to an increase in the price of the entire set of solar street lights, as well as an increase in the cost of purchasing solar street lights. The number of lights used in the village will increase, which will increase the cost of rural construction. It is more cost-effective to match the reasonable solar street light configuration and choose the appropriate lighting time.

2. The longer the rural solar street light is on, the greater the burden on the battery, and the number of cycles will be greatly reduced, thus affecting the service life of the solar street light.

3. Many roads in rural areas are near houses, and people in rural areas generally go to bed early. Some solar street lights can emit light into the house. If the solar street light is on for a longer time, it will affect the sleep of rural people.

Brightness and lighting time need to be reasonably balanced. When purchasing rural solar street lights, you should consider the lighting time and cost-effectiveness. Reasonable configuration and appropriate lighting time selection will help you achieve optimal cost control. For rural areas, the brightness requirement is not very high. Generally, as long as it can illuminate the road surface, it is fine. It is generally recommended to control the lighting time to about 6 to 8 hours, and enable the morning light mode, which is both economical and practical.

The above is what the street light manufacturer TIANXIANG introduces to you. In general, using solar street lights is the right choice, because solar street lights are a one-time investment, without any maintenance costs, and the investment cost can be recovered in three years, with long-term benefits.
