These lamp beads (also called light sources) used in solar street lights and city circuit lights have some differences in some aspects, mainly based on the different working principles and requirements of the two types of street lights. The following are some of the main differences between solar street light lamp beads and city circuit light lamp beads:
1. Power supply
Solar street light lamp beads:
Solar street lights use solar panels to collect solar energy for charging, and then supply the stored electricity to the lamp beads. Therefore, the lamp beads need to be able to work normally under low voltage or unstable voltage conditions.
City circuit light lamp beads:
City circuit lights use stable AC power supply, so the lamp beads need to adapt to the corresponding voltage and frequency.
2. Voltage and current:
Solar street light lamp beads:
Due to the low output voltage of solar panels, solar street light lamp beads usually need to be designed as low-voltage lamp beads that can work under low voltage conditions, and also require lower current.
City circuit light lamp beads:
City circuit lights use higher voltage and current, so the city circuit light lamp beads need to adapt to this high voltage and current.
3. Energy efficiency and brightness:
Solar street light beads:
Since the battery power supply of solar street lights is relatively limited, the beads usually need to have high energy efficiency to provide sufficient brightness under limited power.
City circuit light beads:
The power supply of city circuit lights is relatively stable, so while providing high brightness, the energy efficiency is also relatively high.
4. Maintenance and reliability:
Solar street light lamp beads:
Solar street lights are usually placed in outdoor environments and need to have good waterproof, weather resistance, and earthquake resistance to cope with various severe weather conditions. The reliability and durability of the beads also need to be higher.
City circuit light lamp beads:
City circuit lights can improve reliability to a certain extent through a stable power supply environment, but they also need to adapt to certain outdoor environment requirements.
In short, the differences in the working principles and power supply methods of solar street lights and city circuit lights will lead to some differences in the voltage, current, energy efficiency, reliability, and other aspects of the beads they use. When designing and selecting lamp beads, it is necessary to take into account the specific working conditions and requirements of street lights to ensure that the lamp beads can adapt to the corresponding power supply and environment.
FAQ
Q: Can solar street lights and city circuit lights complement each other?
A: Of course.
In the automatic switching mode, the solar street light and the mains street light are connected through the control device. When the solar panel cannot generate electricity normally, the control device will automatically switch to the mains power supply mode to ensure the normal operation of the street light. At the same time, when the solar panel can generate electricity normally, the control device will automatically switch back to the solar power supply mode to save energy.
In the parallel operation mode, the solar panel and the mains are connected in parallel through the control device, and the two jointly power the street light. When the solar panel cannot meet the needs of the street light, the mains will automatically supplement the power to ensure the normal operation of the street light.
