SOLAR LIGHTINGS FROM CHINA
We were invited to visit sample of solar lightings from a supplier here in the Philippines. The place is somewhere in Quezon City. The images you see here are all running and gives light during the night. These sample are just a few to the available designs. You could actually have your own design to suit your preferences. They are actually cheap compare to other commercially available.
They say solar lightings are good for the environment and in the long run could save you money from electrical bills. But what we have learned is that you have to replace the batteries every year which is very expensive and one thing where will we the replaced batteries go. So these types of lighting have made us think of using it. But you could save a lot of electricity especially on street lamps who will be on overnight plus the amount that will be less on those electrical wires used on installing the lamps if it is conventional street lamps.
They got one product that we might look into consideration and that is solar street guide lightings. Do you see those reflectorize metals on the middle of the streets? These solar street guide lightings could replace those reflectorize metals that could be more efficient guides and more beautiful. These guides uses LEDs that coud stay there for 10 years or more without replacing the batteries. We might be looking at our streets looking like a airport runway if these are used.
If you are interested please give a buzz and I will give their contact information. Plus if you have any information that is contradicting to what I have just said please comment on these so we could learn more.
