Different Types of Solar Street Lights and its Cost

Solar street lights are available in a variety of styles, designs, features, and purposes. They are:


 Split Solar Street Light


A Split solar street light generates power from its power supply system and is not connected to the electric grid. It is composed of solar panels, a lamp head, a lamp pole, based and a control box with the controller and battery. Typically, these street lights are available in two types of solar street lamp systems: 12V and 24V. The split solar street light is flexible enough to adjust where the sunlight is to absorb more heat because it is composed of a rotatable solar panel.


Besides, you can use any size of solar panel to generate and store more solar power to make it stay longer during winter nights. The split-type solar street lamps use a large-capacity lead-acid battery, particularly a gel battery, which provides a 100-percent luminous light all night.


A Split-type solar street light pole is usually more than 5m in height with high gravity center while its solar panels are designed in hanging type to make the whole equipment set more wind resistant.


Cost


Split solar street light’s cost varies according to its materials, poles, and installation. Typically, the entire set costs double the price of an integrated solar street light with its average cost ranging from $150 to $400. The installation is not yet included in this average total cost.


2. All-in-one Solar Street Lights


All-in-one solar street lights are the new generation set of solar-led street lights built with batteries, LED lights, and controllers in one body lamp. Unlike, split-type solar street lights, these lights are all compact with one body. The battery that can be used with these is a lithium battery and lead-acid battery. Also, it only carries a smaller size than the split-solar street lights since all-in-one solar street lights equipment are combined to make one lamp body. Since it was compacted into one body and operates as one, a constant heavy rain might lessen its performance.


Cost:


The cost may differ according to the installation cost and the product materials it has. The cost of all-in-one solar street lights is much cheaper than that of Split-type solar street lights. Its average cost ranges from $90 to $200. The installation cost is not included in the given price.


3. Two-in-one Solar Street Lights


Two-in-one solar street lights have a solar panel installed on the body lamp’s top powered by batteries, LED fixtures, and controllers. Since it is made with a solar panel bracket design, it is not capable of carrying a solar panel power capacity bigger than 50W. For that reason, the led power should be under 30w – 40W only to ensure a longer lighting time. Same with other solar street lights, it also generates and converts solar energy to solar power without depending on the grid. It also has a pole to support its base.


Cost:


The cheapest cost of two-in-one solar street lights spans from $20 to $40 but these lights only last for a year.  Whereas, its average price ranges from $60-$150. This price is only for the lights and poles.
