FAQ
Schools and Educational Institutions
Can solar lights be used in cold climates?
Yes, our solar lights are designed to work in various weather conditions, including cold climates, with some models performing well at temperatures as low as -20°C.
Solar Street Light Luyan
What types of batteries are used in Luyan solar street lights, and how do they work?
Luyan solar street lights use high-quality lithium-ion batteries. These batteries store the solar energy captured during the day and provide reliable illumination at night. Lithium-ion batteries are known for their longer lifespan, faster charging times, and better energy storage compared to traditional lead-acid batteries.
Battery and Analysis
What are the main factors that affect battery life?
When selecting a charger, it is best to use a charger with proper termination devices (e.g., anti-overcharge time device, negative voltage difference (-dV) cut-off charging, and anti-overheating sensing device) to avoid shortening the service life of the battery due to overcharging. Generally speaking, slow charging can prolong the service life of the battery more than fast charging.
2. Discharge:
a.The depth of discharge is the main factor affecting the life of the battery, the higher the depth of discharge, the shorter the life of the battery. In other words, by reducing the depth of discharge, the life of the battery can be greatly extended. Therefore, we should avoid over-discharging the battery to a very low voltage.
b. When batteries are discharged at high temperatures, the life of the battery will be shortened.
c. If an electronic device is designed in such a way that all current cannot be completely stopped, and if the device is left unused for a long period of time without the batteries being removed, the residual current may sometimes cause the batteries to be over-consumed, resulting in over-discharge of the batteries.
d. Mixing batteries of different capacities, chemical structures, or charge levels, as well as old and new batteries, can also cause excessive battery discharge, or even reverse charging.
3. Storage:
Prolonged storage of batteries at high temperatures will reduce their electrode activity and shorten their service life.
Municipal and Public Infrastructure
Can solar streetlights be integrated with smart city solutions?
Yes, our solar streetlights can be integrated with IoT systems for smart monitoring, remote control, and data analytics, making them ideal for modern smart cities.
