WHAT ARE THE BRIGHTEST SOLAR LIGHTS?

When selecting outdoor solar flood lights, one of the most critical factors is the lumen rating of the LEDs. The lumens give an idea of how bright lighting will be. Solar-powered floodlights are available between 100 and 1000 lumens.

The amount of light given out is expressed in lumens. As a rule of thumb, the higher the lumens, the brighter the light is.
Some solar flood lights are bright enough to cover large areas, while others can just cover your porch.

Try to look for efficient lights that produce lots of brightness without draining your battery pack too quickly.

BATTERY

Battery performance is critical. Nowadays, most modern solar lights come with a lithium-ion battery. When assessing the battery specifications, you want to look at the capacity, voltage, recharging, and operating times.

Working times will usually be 8-12 hours. It depends on whether the battery pack is full. When assessing the working time, Keep in mind the use of the light:
Is it for decoration? Shorter working time may not be crucial.
Is it for security or for lighting a sign? You then need a longer operating time.

Usually, 6-8 hours is enough to charge the Lithium battery pack fully. Always choose a model that needs minimum charging hours, and make sure to place the solar panel in a sunny location.

HOW LONG DO SOLAR FLOOD LIGHTS CAN LAST?

Solar flood lights are often exposed to harsh weather. It should be safe for use in most outdoor applications. The casing needs to be made of resistant materials with UV protection. ABS Plastic and aluminum are usually the best. The unit should be able to resist shocks without breaking easily. You should also check the waterproof rating.

Anyway, to make your life easier, always check the IP rating (IP stands for International Protection). It is a good indicator of how much water a product can endure. For example, IP65 enclosures protect against water jets while IP66 resists powerful water jets.

ADJUSTMENTS

Look for solar lights that have adjustable settings like brightness, sensor, timer, etc.
Many models now come with remote control for multi-parameter tuning. You don’t even need to leave your place to make the necessary adjustments.

You can also adjust the tilt or pan angles of the solar panel or the light. This feature is helpful when you need to optimize the performance of the solar panel.

In addition to the above criteria, design, creativity, warranty, construction materials, and waterproof/heatproof features may further help you determine which model is the best for your project.

LED AREA ILLUMINATION

One of the first things to consider is the space that you like to illuminate. This will define the brightness and lighting duration needs.
If you need the light to instantly turn on to illuminate your front door as you near the entrance, solar security light with a motion sensor is what you need. For such a small area, the LED doesn’t need to project a wide angle of illumination. However, you will need a wider angle of lighting for larger spaces.

FOR HOW LONG SOLAR LIGHTS CAN STAY LIT?

At full charge, the best solar floodlight can provide constant lighting all night long. Which is more than enough to illuminate commercial signs, walkways, and other outdoor areas or features from dusk to dawn.
LED bulbs can run for more than 50,000 hours, which translates to approximately 6 years. Most solar floodlights use rechargeable lithium battery packs that are quite affordable.

SOME TIPS

Fitting solar floodlights is a straightforward procedure, but understanding the following tips can help you get the most out of your solar lights.

SOLAR PANEL PLACEMENT

Put the panel where it can get maximum sunshine throughout the day. Look for the places in your backyard or outdoor space that have less shade during the day.

MOST OF OUR SOLAR POWERED FLOOD LIGHTS COME WITH REMOTE CONTROL FOR ON/OFF, DIMMER, TIMER OPERATION.

Our lights offer reliability and high brightness. We only carry LED floodlights of high quality and durable materials able to withstand the wear and tear of the outdoors.

With high-quality solar panels, bright LEDs, and lithium rechargeable batteries as part of each unit, your light fixtures are guarantee to be low maintenance. 

With a day of sunlight, your LED solar flood light battery will charge with the necessary juice to power it through the night. Besides, the built-in photocell will detect the surrounding luminosity, whether dusk or dawn, and turn the unit on or off. You will never have to worry about whether you turned the outside lights on.
