about Solar Lamps: A solar lamp also known as solar light or solar lantern, is a lighting system composed of an LED lamp, solar panels, battery, charge controller and there may also be an inverter. The lamp operates on electricity from batteries, charged through the use of solar photovoltaic panel.

Benefits of Solar-powered household lighting
This type of lighting can replace other light sources like candles, incandescent light bulbs gas lamps etc. Solar lamps have a lower operating cost than paraffin lamps, gas lamps because renewable energy from the sun is free, unlike fuel. In addition, solar lamps produce no indoor air pollution unlike paraffin lamps. However, solar lamps generally have a higher initial cost, and are weather dependent. Solar lamps can be used in remote situations, or during power outages

Firstly, LED lighting uses up to 90% less energy than incandescent and halogen bulbs, and up to 60% less energy than CFL bulbs – which were the first energy-efficient bulbs to be widely sold.

This can vary according to the type of fitting chosen, but the LED remains the leader when it comes to efficiency. LED lighting is far greener than traditional lighting, helping domestic and commercial properties lower their carbon footprint and improve their green credentials and energy ratings – a great advantage for businesses who are being pressured to meet government incentives and energy quotas.

Increased efficiency, comes lower energy bills – something everyone can benefit from. Lighting is one of the highest consumers of electricity in your household. Switching all of your lighting to LED will help you save hundreds of dollars per-year.

Power Inverter

Power Inverter
Our shop has the right power inverter to suit your needs. A power inverter, or inverter, is an electronic device or circuitry that changes direct current (DC) to alternating current (AC). The input voltage, output voltage and frequency, and overall power handling depend on the design of the specific device or circuitry.

Types of Inverters: There are 3 major types of inverters – sine wave (sometimes referred to as a “true” or “pure” sine wave), modified sine wave (actually a modified square wave), and square wave. A sine wave is what you get from your local utility company and (usually) from a generator.
