When installing solar street lights, three key considerations must be considered.

As a model of green, energy-saving, distributed energy lighting, the quality of solar street light installation directly determines the user experience and maintenance costs for decades to come. To ensure the efficient, long-lasting, and stable operation of a solar street light system, continuous improvement is essential in the following three core areas.

First, solar radiation absorption.

Because solar street lights are primarily powered by solar radiation, their energy absorption must be carefully considered when using them. Often, users fail to ensure adequate energy supply, mistaking the solar panels for those lights for those that don't face the sun. Alternatively, tall trees may block the light's absorption. Therefore, it's recommended to check the local latitude before installation, as the optimal tilt angle for solar panels typically aligns with the local latitude.

Second, the sealing of solar street lights.

Solar light systems are exposed to harsh environments such as wind, sun, rain, dust, and even flooding. Sealing is not just about waterproofing; it's a comprehensive protection concept that's crucial to the system's lifespan and safety.

If solar street lights aren't sealed during operation, unexpected damage can occur. For users who want long-term, reliable solar street light lighting, wiring problems can be extremely serious.

Here are a few suggestions:

1. After connecting the battery terminals, it is recommended to apply Vaseline or special anti-corrosion grease to prevent oxidation and corrosion of the terminals, which can lead to poor contact.
2. Use flame-retardant, corrosion-resistant PVC or PE conduit for wiring. All openings should be sealed to prevent moisture and insects from entering.

Finally, control system stability

After all other factors have been optimized, users also need to consider the stability of the solar street light's control system. Street lights themselves require exceptionally stable operation. If the controller and other stability systems fail to function effectively during operation, this will significantly impact the street light's performance. Therefore, if you need to install the light yourself, you must ensure the control system's stability. After installation, the controller parameters must be precisely configured based on the project site's latitude and longitude, season, and actual needs.
