Solar Lamps = Your Home's Reliable Companions

As autumn approaches, the days get shorter, and with the declining temperatures, the number of sunny hours also decreases. At the beginning of autumn, around September, the sun's rays hit the Northern Hemisphere at a lower angle, which unfortunately leads to shorter daylight hours until the winter solstice, typically on December 21 or 22, when the days are shortest, and the nights are longest.

Now is the time to assess your home’s outdoor lighting and prepare it for the upcoming autumn-winter season! We understand that in times of inflation and rising energy costs, efficiency and cost-effectiveness are crucial. Our solar lamp models perfectly meet these needs – and do so in the long term! But how do they achieve this?
Read on!

How Does a Solar-Powered Lamp Work?

A solar lamp is an energy-efficient lighting device that uses solar energy to operate. The power of an outdoor solar lamp comes from its solar panels. In the lamp’s panels, photochemical reactions take place, generating electricity from sunlight. This electric energy later powers the lamp's batteries.

The solar lamp contains one or more batteries that store the electrical energy generated from sunlight. These batteries are typically rechargeable and charge during the day, powered by the energy produced by the solar panels.

In an era marked by energy crises and global warming, it is especially important that outdoor solar lamps operate in an energy-saving manner. This can be achieved with motion sensors that automatically control the switching on and off of the lights.

Solar lamps usually come with built-in light sensors that detect the surrounding light conditions. When it gets dark or cloudy, the light sensors activate the lamp, drawing power from the battery to illuminate. During the day, when there is enough sunlight, the lamp automatically turns off, and the battery recharges.

Solar Lamps: A Versatile Addition to Your Home

Solar lamps come in various types and designs, making them ideal for lighting up autumn and winter evenings in many areas of your home. We recommend using them in the garden, on the terrace, in the driveway, or in the garage.

Solar Lamp: An Eco-Friendly Lighting Solution for Every Home!

Solar lamps provide an eco-friendly solution as they use solar energy, a clean and renewable resource. Additionally, they are energy-efficient since they do not require electricity from the grid, reducing energy consumption.

Solar lamps are not only environmentally friendly because they harness solar energy, but they are also only active when needed, thanks to the motion sensor.

A motion sensor placed on the top or side of the lamp detects movement in the surrounding environment. These sensors can be infrared (PIR), ultrasonic, or microwave. (Similar to Asalite products.)

Infrared sensors detect body heat, ultrasonic sensors use sound waves to detect movement, and microwave sensors emit microwave radiation and monitor its reflection.

Thinking of Purchasing a Solar Lamp? Let’s Look at the Numbers!

Asalite currently offers two types of solar lamps with different power options:

• The Asalite LED Solar Floodlight 10W 4000K can produce 1300 lumens of brightness with 10W of power.
• The Asalite LED Solar Floodlight 20W 4000K can produce 1800 lumens of brightness with 20W of power.

Which Solar Lamp Suits Your Home? We’ll Help You Decide!

Both the ASAL0275 and ASAL0276 solar lamps feature motion sensors and have an IP44 waterproof rating, ensuring long-term outdoor performance.

The easiest way to choose between these solar lamps is by comparing power and light output values.

The ASAL0275 provides 1300 lumens with 10W of power, while the ASAL0276 delivers 1800 lumens with 20W of power. Price can also be a deciding factor, especially if you plan to purchase and install multiple outdoor solar lamps.

• Our ASAL0275 solar lamp model is available at 12,059 HUF*/unit, while the ASAL0276 model, with 20W power, costs 19,257 HUF*/unit.

Solar Lamp: Easy to Install

These solar-powered lighting devices are especially beneficial in areas where traditional electricity would be difficult or costly to use, and they don’t require professional wiring.

They can also lead to long-term savings by reducing your traditional electricity bills and contribute to sustainability through the use of clean solar energy.
