Solar street light is a lighting device that uses solar energy to generate electricity. It can provide lighting at night and does not require external power supply. The core component of solar street lights is the battery, which stores the energy collected through solar panels during the day for use at night. So, what is the general capacity of a solar street light battery?
The battery capacity of solar street lights is usually measured in ampere hours (Ah). Ampere-hour is the current capacity of a battery that can be supplied for one hour. The battery capacity of solar street lights will vary according to actual needs and design requirements, generally between 4Ah and 20Ah.
The selection of battery capacity for solar street lights mainly depends on the following factors:
1.Lighting needs: Different street lights have different lighting needs. Some street lights that need to provide stronger lighting may require larger-capacity batteries, while some street lights that need to provide weaker lighting may only require smaller-capacity batteries.
2. The power of the solar panel: The power of the solar panel determines the amount of solar energy collected during the day. The greater the power, the more energy is collected, so a larger capacity battery is needed to store this energy.
3. Night use time: The longer the night use time, the larger capacity battery is required to provide continuous lighting.
4. Design requirements for solar street lights: Some solar street lights may need to provide lighting in rainy weather for several consecutive days, which requires a larger capacity battery to store enough energy.
In general, the battery capacity of solar street lights needs to be determined based on actual needs and design requirements. Generally speaking, common solar street light battery capacities are between 4Ah and 20Ah, but some solar street lights with special needs may choose larger capacity batteries.
The battery capacity of solar street lights directly affects the use time and lighting effect of the street lights. If the battery capacity is too small, the street light may not be able to provide continuous lighting at night; if the battery capacity is too large, the cost and size may increase.
