    Solar LED Street Light All-in-one: Not Lighting Up


    Possible causes


    Incorrect wiring, light source failure, water ingress causing controller short circuit, prolonged rainy days, etc.


    Solutions


    First, check the controller of the solar LED street light all-in-one. Check the markings on it and verify if the corresponding lines are correctly connected. Then, check if there are water traces or rust on the controller's terminals. If there is, the controller might be damaged. If not, measure the battery voltage. For a 12V system, if the battery voltage is below 10.7V, the battery is no longer usable and needs to be replaced. On sunny days, check if the solar panels have current and voltage output. If they do, the solar panels are normal; otherwise, they are damaged. If none of these issues exist, the problem might be with the LED light source. Connect the light source to another power source to check if it light up. If it doesn't, replace the light source. If the LED integrated solar street light does not light up after several consecutive rainy days, it is normal because the solar panels were not generating electricity, and the stored power in the battery is depleted. When the sun returns, the solar panels will recharge the battery, and the solar LED street light all-in-one will resume normal operation.


    Solar LED Street Light All-in-one: Light Source Flickering


    Possible causes


    Wiring issues, battery low on power.


    Solutions


    First, check if the wiring is correct and all connections and coverings are normal. You can also rewire everything. If the light source still flickers, consider checking the battery for low power. Measure the open-circuit voltage of the battery using a DC voltmeter. If the voltage is below 12V, the battery is low on power. Correctly connect the positive and negative terminals of the battery to the solar panels and charge for 1-2 days for the system to work normally.


    Solar LED Street Light All-in-one: Light On for Short Time, Does Not Light Up on Rainy Days


    Possible cause


    insufficient battery capacity.


    Solutions


    If newly installed, the manufacturer-provided battery capacity might be falsely labeled and cannot meet the lighting requirements for consecutive rainy days. If If the all-in-one LED solar street light has been used for several years, the battery might have degraded to the end of its service life and needs to be replaced.


    Solar LED Street Light All-in-one: Light Source Not Fully Illuminating


    The commonly used solar LED street light all-in-one LED light sources on the market are mostly dotted arrays. If some parts are lit while others are not, it suggests poor quality or inconsistent specifications of the LED beads, causing them to not work simultaneously under the same voltage and current. There could also be poor welding during assembly, resulting in poor contact of some beads. In this situation, replacing the LED light source should fix the issue and the solar LED street light all-in-one will illuminate normally.

    FAQ

    Do solar panels work on rainy days?

    Rain actually helps solar panels work more efficiently. This is because rain will wash away any dirt or dust that collects on the panels so they can absorb sunlight more efficiently. Anern's solar panels actually generate more electricity than you need during peak sunlight hours. This excess power can be used to provide additional power on  days or at night.

    How long is the lead time for the product?

    3-7days for samples, 7-20 days for bulk order, depending on order quantity and production schedule.

    What markets does Anern serve?

    Anern supplies solar energy products and system solutions to customers in more than 200 countries and regions, supporting residential, commercial, industrial, and off-grid solar power projects.


    Anenr main serve markets:

    Middle East: Iraq, Lebanon, Syria, United Arab Emirates, Afghanistan, Yemen, Saudi Arabia

    Africa: Nigeria, Zambia, Kenya, Mali, Burkina Faso, South Africa, Egypt, Tanzania, Mozambique, DRC, Botswana, Ethiopia, Egypt, Morocco, Cameroon, Zimbabwe, Ghana, Algeria, Libya, Uganda

    Southeast Asia: Philippines, Indonesia, Malaysia, Myanmar, Thailand, Vietnam, Pakistan

    Americas: Colombia, Mexico, Brazil, Peru, Argentina, Chile, Honduras, Ecuador, United States

    Central Asia: Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan

    Europe: Ukraine, Türkiye, Germany, Romania, Poland, France


    Note: If you want to distinguish by product, the above regions of the Middle East, Africa, Southeast Asia, and South America are all suitable for solar street lights and energy storage, while Central Asia and Europe are only suitable for solar energy storage products.
