For those of you who are still confused about placing solar lamps, here are some tips that can help you.
Choose the location where the solar lamps will be placed and then check whether the location has high points for potential fixtures to collect sunlight optimally. If there is, you can install the lamps there.
Please note that the height of the placement is recommended according to the lighting equipment you have for easy maintenance, especially for bulb replacement. Do not let the position that is too high making it difficult for you to do the maintenance later. FYI, the better the quality of the LED bulb you use, the more durable the lamp will be, so maintenance does not need to be done often.
To maximize the power of sunlight, you must place the lamp in an area free from obstructions such as shadows of buildings, roofs, or tree branches that may form when the movement of the sun is at its peak. This is very important so that when the sun is at its peak and emits the brightest light, the fixture can absorb well. So, the potential hours were not wasted.
Sometimes the performance of solar lamps can be obstructed due to common things, but we are not aware of. For example, placing lights in areas near vehicle entrances may allow cables to run over by vehicles or areas where lawn mowers may pass. So you should be careful with common obstructions if you plan to install solar lamps.
After determining the exact placement location and installing it, it is recommended to charge the battery before use by leaving the lamp in direct sunlight for about 5-10 cycles (charging during the day and discharging at night) to charge the battery fully. When used later, the lamp can usually last at least 8 hours in the dark, from dusk to dawn. If this is what you get, it means that the placement of the lights is correct.
Generally, solar lamps work automatically using light sensors that detect light levels in the surrounding area to turn the lights on and off. At night, the light will automatically turn on because the light level is below the value in the sensor memory. Meanwhile, in the morning, the lights will automatically turn off because the sensor detects more light.
Solar lamps should not be placed near other types of street lights because if the street lights are lit together at night, the light sensors on the solar lamps may not function properly. In addition, the light produced by street lights is usually very bright; it is feared that the solar lamps will not turn on at all.
