FAQs

1) It would be ideal to place the solar panel under direct sunlight and away from any kind of shade.

2) If possible, the solar panel should be placed away from over-hanging trees and other hindrances.

3) Charge the lamp for a minimum of 10-12 hours initially for best results.

4) Keep the solar panel away from other artificial lights as the sensor may not be able to differentiate day from dusk to night.

1) Detailed installation locations, we will calculate the configuration based on your local sunshine peak time.

2) Exact working hours of lights every day (such as 10 or 12 hours every day).

3) Rough consecutive rainy days (such as 1 to 3 days) are required to be guaranteed to keep the lights working normally.

4) Height of light poles or width of roads.

5) Brightness of street lights required (such as 30 watt led lamp).

The sunshine peak time refers to the unit strength of the sunlight reaching the earth every hour. Only strong intensity of the sunlight can be absorbed and converted. That’s to say, it is measured at noon, within 3-4 hours before and after noon (depend on different location). During that time the charging effect of the solar panel is the best.

The controller we use is an intelligent waterproof controller, which is composed of a light controller and a time controller. After it is installed and set up, no man-made operation is needed. The control function in the solar lighting system is equal to people’s brain, which is connected with solar panels absorbing sunlight, storage batteries for storing energy and the lamp of lighting. When it senses the voltage of the solar panel dropping down to a certain level, it will automatically turn on the circuit of the lamp. And when the set working hours of lighting is ended, it will turn off the light automatically. Besides the function of intelligent light control switching-on and switching-off, such an intelligent controller has many other functions, such as prevent the battery from overcharge or over-discharge.

You don’t need to worry about it. We have taken it into our consideration. You can advise us of the specification with the consecutive rainy days which needs to be guaranteed. If you don’t have a clear need for that, we will recommend to you the local regular consecutive rainy days.

Yes. For saving energy, our solar charge controller is designed with the function of different time control function, such as one-time zone, two-time zone or three-time zone, two-time zone means dividing the lighting hours into two parts, like 12 hours (6 hours full power lighting + 6 hours half power lighting).

It doesn’t need to be maintained too much. It is very convenient to use. Only if the surface of the solar panel should be cleaned every 3-5 months if the local place has too much dust. Therefore it can keep high efficiency.
