Solar Panel: Solar Flood Lights are equipped with a photovoltaic (PV) solar panel that converts sunlight into electricity. The solar panel is typically integrated into the top of the light fixture or placed nearby to capture maximum sunlight exposure.
Charge Controller: The solar panel generates DC (Direct Current) electricity, which is then regulated and managed by a charge controller. The charge controller ensures that the batteries receive the optimal charge and prevents overcharging or deep discharge, which can damage the batteries.
Battery Storage: Solar Flood Lights include rechargeable batteries, usually lithium-ion or lead-acid batteries, to store the electricity generated by the solar panel during the day. These batteries provide power to the light fixture during nighttime or when sunlight is not available.
LED Light Fixture: The light fixture itself contains multiple LEDs (Light Emitting Diodes) that provide illumination. LEDs are chosen for their energy efficiency and durability, consuming less power while producing bright light suitable for outdoor applications.
Light Control and Sensors: Many Solar Flood Lights are equipped with light sensors that automatically turn the light on at dusk and off at dawn, conserving energy and ensuring the light operates only when needed. Some models also include motion sensors to activate the light when movement is detected, enhancing security and efficiency.
Mounting and Installation: Solar Flood Lights can be mounted on various surfaces such as walls, poles, or ground mounts, depending on the specific design and intended application. Proper installation ensures optimal solar exposure for the panel and effective illumination coverage.
