This is another point I would like to share on my blog. I spent a lot of time to find out the most reliable electronic equipment for our solar street lights.
There are 3 main parts : the battery, the solar charger, and the LED lamp. All of them are very important, if one of them is defective the street light will not work properly.
Of course, the concept and the technology is very easy, nothing revolutionnary from the scientific aspect, but, to make it work properly in harsh environment with humidity sometimes over 90% and temperature variations from -20°C to +50°C is a hard challenge.
It tooks me almost about 4 years study and research to find out the best affordable components to be able to offer my customers a 10 years warranty on the finished product.
- The Battery : LiFePO4 :
- The Solar Charger :
- The LED lamp :
More coming soon to explain about the operating voltage for the whole system, and the right choice for the LED...
