Why can solar garden light occupy the market share of traditional LED garden light?

In the past, customers bought LED garden light to decorate their courtyard or backyard. LED garden light is powered by grid electricity, it is no need lithium battery built-in, but need have a power supply to connect with grid electricity. Especially in Europe, various of styles LED garden lights are installed in private garden, public garden and sides of roadway, etc. However, with the photovoltaic technology development, more and more traditional LED garden light has been replaced by solar garden light. Customers prefer to purchase solar garden light, and the market share of solar garden light is increasing in recent years. What’s happen? Is traditional LED garden light worse than solar garden light? Now let us talk about them.

1. The lighting source is LED for both of traditional LED garden light and solar garden light, the difference is that solar garden light has a solar panel which can covert sunlight into solar power, while traditional LED garden light is powered by grid electricity, it doesn’t have solar panel. Therefore, the cost of solar garden light is higher than traditional LED garden light from the initial investment.

2. There is no need to excavate hole to embedded cables for solar garden light, each solar garden light system is individual. While traditional LED garden light need excavate and pave complicated cables, and its electric cost need be paid.

3. The structure of traditional LED garden light is simple, maintenance is also easy, and its lifespan wouldn’t be influenced by battery. Usually, it can work more than 10 years after installation. While the disadvantage of solar garden light is inside lithium battery, usually, the battery should be changed one time around 5 years.

4. The biggest advantage of solar garden light is environmentally friendly, it doesn’t consume grid electricity, namely, there is no need to pay electric cost, because it is powered by solar.

Solar garden light is a new technological LED lighting product, moreover, the technology of solar lighting system has got mature in recent years. In order to reduce the consumption of traditional energy, solar lighting products have got rapid development, solar garden light is one of popular solar lighting products, that is the reason why solar garden light can occupy the market share of traditional LED garden light.
