What Factors Affect the Luminous Effect of Solar Road Studs?

Solar road studs are installed to guide people in the right direction at night or in bad weather to ensure driving safety. But sometimes the luminous effect of solar led road studs is not so conspicuous, sometimes the brightness is not enough, sometimes the duration is too short, or it is not bright at all. Do you know what the reasons for these problems are? Next, let’s discuss what factors will affect the luminous effect of solar road studs.

Charging efficiency of solar panels is directly affected by light intensity and cleanliness. Suppose the installation location of the solar road stud is in a shadow or insufficient light environment for a long time. In that case, it will lead to insufficient power storage, which will lead to a shortened lighting time or reduced brightness. In addition, if there is dust, fallen leaves, etc., covering the solar panels, it will also affect the absorption of sunlight and reduce the charging efficiency.

If the battery capacity of solar led road studs is insufficient, it will limit the brightness and duration of the road studs. After long-term use, the battery will gradually age, resulting in a decrease in energy storage capacity, which will also cause the brightness of the solar powered road studs to decrease or the duration to be insufficient. Therefore, the solar road stud battery can prioritize lithium batteries with better performance, which have better energy storage efficiency and service life.

The light source of solar powered road reflectors generally uses LED lamp beads. The power and luminous intensity of LEDs determine the brightness and visibility of the road studs. Poor-quality LED light sources will gradually deteriorate due to rapid light decay.

The light transmittance of the shell material of the solar powered road studs will directly affect the output brightness of the light source. Low light transmittance materials will reduce the visual effect.

High-quality solar powered road reflectors are composed of high-quality components with good use effect and long life, but the quality of inferior solar road stud components may have performance degradation problems in a short period, and the luminous effect will be significantly reduced over time.

The installation environment of solar led road studs will also affect their luminous effect. If there are trees or buildings around, it will affect the efficiency of solar panels and the luminous effect. If there is continuous rainy weather, it will also lead to insufficient charging, affecting the luminous time and brightness. In addition, the temperature of the use environment will also affect the luminous effect. Extremely low temperatures may affect the discharge efficiency of the battery, and high temperatures will accelerate battery aging and LED light decay, which will affect the luminous effect of solar powered road studs.

The luminous effect of solar road studs is affected by many factors, not only related to their quality but also directly related to their use environment. If you want solar road studs to have a better luminous effect, you can choose suitable, high-quality solar powered road reflectors for your road according to the use environment. As long as the product quality is qualified and the use and maintenance are proper, the luminous effect of solar road studs can be guaranteed.
