Technical FAQs 4

Do solar lights need wattage?

For solar lighting, focusing on lumens rather than wattage is key to ensuring you get the brightness you need without overburdening your energy system. Efficient solar lighting systems are designed to produce high lumens with low wattage, using advanced LED technology to achieve bright light while consuming minimal energy.

How many watts of solar power do I Need?

A general rule of thumb is that you’ll need one watt of solar power for every hour that you want to run your lights. So, if you want to run your lights for 8 hours per day, you’ll need an 8-watt solar panel. Of course, there are other factors to consider as well, such as battery efficiency and cloud cover.

How many lumens does a solar light need?

Solar lights with 15–30 watts and 1000–3000 lumens provide enough light to cover larger areas while ensuring security and visibility. For Streets and Roadways: Street lighting requires even more brightness, with wattage ranging from 30–60 watts and lumen outputs between 3000 and 6000 lumens.

How much electricity does a 100 watt solar panel use?

A typical 60-watt incandescent light bulb uses about 0.06 kilowatts (kW) of electricity per hour. This means that a 100-watt solar panel could theoretically power than a 40 watt solar panel. However, incandescent bulbs are being phased out in favor of more efficient options like LED lights that stay on all night.
