How to choose the power of LED street lights?


For LED street light renovation projects, many customers  ask us to recommend the power of LED street lights. According to our  project experience, 80-100W LED street lights are usually recommended to replace 250W traditional street lights, and 120-150W LED street lights to replace 400W traditional street lights, but The most correct way is to use professional DIALUX lighting design software, according to the actual installation conditions of the road, such as the height of the pole, the distance between the poles, the width of the road, the length of the arm of the pole, the elevation angle of the pole, the position arrangement of poles, etc., the model will be built in the DIALUX, and then the IES file of the LED street light is imported into the software, according to whether the calculation results meet the road lighting standards of various road types to confirm the suitable power of LED street light.


How to choose a good LED street lamp?

High Power

High wattage is the most important factor to consider when shopping for street lighting. Since installing street lights costs money, it is essential to do it correctly by acquiring high-powered street lights. As it might get quite dark at night or when visibility is poor, you must install street lights that give optimal lighting. Otherwise, there would be an increase in accidents and criminality.


The Material Is Strong and Long-Lasting

Next, you must get street lights manufactured from sturdy and long-lasting materials. Due to the fact that street lights will be exposed to the elements for their entire life, they must be constructed from the most durable materials. Otherwise, they would quickly get worn out, necessitating frequent replacement.



Low Glare

Low glare is an essential feature that cannot be overlooked when purchasing street lighting. You must get street lighting with reduced glare. In contrast, if you install street lights with an excessive amount of glare, cars would be unable to see properly, leading to accidents. Therefore, it is essential to have street lights with reduced glare. You will find them to be beneficial and ideal for your needs.

Road lighting affects people's travel and traffic safety, so in addition to reaching the specified illumination requirements, road uniformity and glare level are very important indicators. When the uniformity is poor or serious glare appears on the road, which is likely to lead to traffic accidents.

It is the optical lens that determines the uniformity and glare level of LED street lights. After the light of LEDs passes through the optical lens, it can produce the light distribution we want. There are various road conditions, some poles are high but the road width is very narrow, some poles are very low, but the distance between the poles is large, and some poles are installed on one side, but the road width is large, so in order to meet the road standards, it is necessary to use different light distribution, For example, according to North American IESNA standard, Type I is suitable for walking path with 1 lane, Type II is for 2 lanes and Type III is for an even wider road, Type V is for the parking lot, Lens with backlight shield is suited for high way or city residential road  to avoid light waste or light pollution, so when buyers choose LED street light, they should choose the ones who have a variety of light distribution for optional.

High IP-Rating

Since street lights are installed outside, you must purchase ones with at least an IP65 certification. It is the standard because it protects electrical enclosures from water and solids. The IP certification indicates that the illumination is resistant to moisture and dirt. A high IP rating would also shield the illumination from water spray and precipitation. It will aid in providing the necessary durability. Therefore, you cannot settle for less.


Dust not Accumulate Easily

In addition to the foregoing, you need street lighting that prevents the accumulation of dust. If street lights fail to prevent dust collection, they will overheat and cease functioning. You must get street lighting with effective heat dissipation.

With Smart Control System

When it comes to the market for streetlights, an intelligent control system is now required. HongReshine provides the most effective streetlights with a sophisticated control system. You may utilize the technology to remotely control the lights and more. With a sophisticated control system, more may be accomplished with streetlights. There is no higher quality than this. Learn more about the system's capabilities, for example. You need a system that permits remote control of the street lights.

Bracket Angle Adjustable

Lastly, you must get street lamps with an adjustable tile angle. It will guarantee that the illumination direction may be altered without difficulty. In order for the street lights to work effectively, an adjustable tile tangling is needed. If the tilt angle is not adjustable, the street lights will be useless.
