Hitechled has launched the 60W smart integrated solar LED street light (model#:HT-SS-1H60). It integrates a 60W high lumen LED lamp, LiFePO₄ lithium battery, high efficiency sunpower microcrystal solar panel, and a smart controller with PIR motion sensor. Generally, it outputs light in energy-saving mode; when the PIR motion sensor detects a moving object, it will automately light at full brightness for a certain time, then turn back to energy-saving mode. As there is no cable needed (no need to connect to municipal electronic power), it is simply installed and there is nearly no need for maintenance. Last but not least, it is 100% clean, green, renewable light, and can be used in for street, garden, country yard, parking lot, seaside resort and exterior area lighting wherever there is sufficient sunlight.

Solar lighting has become more popular in recent years as people search for more environmentally-friendly alternatives to traditional electric lighting. Instead of relying on lights powered by expensive battery packs or ones connected to the municipal power grid, homeowners and businesses can break free of their dependence on this dated form of energy by harnessing the sun’s clean and renewable energy. Unlike fossil fuels, which have a finite amount before they are depleted, solar energy will always be available.

Although there are several different types of solar lights available on the market, most of them work in a similar fashion. They feature a large panel facing the sky that’s intended to collect the sun’s energy, which is made up of numerous photovoltaic cells. These cells are typically made out of a layer of silicon and another layer of boron, phosphorus or some other conductive element. When the light hits the panel, it passes into the photovoltaic cells before reaching a semiconductor that transforms it into ready-to-use energy.

A general rule of thumb is that the more photovoltaic cells a solar light or device has, the more energy it’s going to produce. This is the reason why solar panels are built to be large and highly visible. Some countries even have large open fields made entirely of huge solar panels that collect and harness the sun’s energy. If you want to achieve a bright illuminating effect, you should stick with solar flood lights featuring a rather large panel of photovoltaic cells; otherwise, you run the risk of not generating enough light for your needs. The basic principle is that the sun’s UV rays hit a panel made of photovoltaic cells. From there, the energy passes into a semiconductor where it’s transformed so that it can power the bulb or any other electrical component.
