Solar street lights are not all built for the same environment or lighting requirement.

Start with the area you need to illuminate, the mounting height and the number of hours you expect the light to operate each night.

Look at the solar-panel rating, battery capacity, light output, weather protection and the control modes available. A product with a large wattage label does not automatically mean better real-world performance.

Installation location matters too. Shading, panel orientation and the distance between lights can affect results.

For commercial projects, roads or larger compounds, it is better to plan the lighting layout before purchasing multiple units.

DORAMCO supplies different outdoor solar lighting options and can help match the product to the intended use.
