For solar lighting, focusing on lumens rather than wattage is key to ensuring you get the brightness you need without overburdening your energy system. Efficient solar lighting systems are designed to produce high lumens with low wattage, using advanced LED technology to achieve bright light while consuming minimal energy.
Say you have a 50 Watt load operating from dusk to dawn in St. Louis, MO, which only has 2.66 sun hours in the winter and a 14 hour night. This will require a 400 Watt solar, or 26.32 amps from the solar, and 292 amps from the battery to have at least a 5 day backup.
Solar lights with 15–30 watts and 1000–3000 lumens provide enough light to cover larger areas while ensuring security and visibility. For Streets and Roadways: Street lighting requires even more brightness, with wattage ranging from 30–60 watts and lumen outputs between 3000 and 6000 lumens.
For Pathways and Pedestrian Areas: Low-wattage fixtures (typically 5–10 watts) with a lumen output of 300–600 are sufficient to provide safe and comfortable lighting for walkways, sidewalks, and low-traffic areas. These lights conserve energy while offering enough brightness to ensure pedestrian safety.
