What Zon&Licht Solar Lighting Project Is All About
Zon&Licht offers a range of professional outdoor solar lighting solutions designed to bring safety, visibility, and energy efficiency to various environments. From pedestrian crossings to docks, these solar markeringslichten (solar marker lights) provide bright, reliable illumination without the hassle of cables or wiring. With cutting-edge technology like built-in LiFePO4 batteries and high-quality LEDs, these lights deliver up to 100,000 hours of free light. Plus, their easy installation means you just hang them up and you’re good to go—no electrician needed!
Main Benefits of Zon&Licht Solar Lights
These solar lighting products pack a punch when it comes to performance and convenience. Here’s a quick rundown of the key figures and facts:
- Visibility up to 800 meters with the STIPLICHT TYP 1, which even keeps predators like wolves away!
- Autonomy of more than 24 hours thanks to efficient LiFePO4 batteries.
- Solar panels that charge well with daylight, converting sunlight into usable electrical power.
- Multiple color options: White, Green, Yellow, Blue, Orange, and Red.
- Power-saving modes with motion detection (PIR) that boost brightness when needed.
- Dimensions and power options ranging from compact 5W 600 lumen models to powerful 25W 3000 lumen units.
- Estimated electricity cost for outdoor lighting over 10 years: €00.00—yes, zero!
- Up to 100% energy savings with industrial LED lighting options offering a 5-year warranty and a lifespan exceeding 20 years.
Innovative Features and Technology Behind the Lights
The SC-SML 214 AH model stands out as the latest innovation, combining a solar panel, battery, and double LED light all in one sleek device. It efficiently harvests daylight with a high-efficiency solar panel built right into the unit, storing energy in a robust 154 Wh LiFePO4 battery designed for 5 to 7 years of life. The double LED bar offers bright, moonlight-like illumination with a wide 180° beam and anti-glare technology. Lights automatically switch on at dusk and off during daylight, with a power-saving mode at 10% brightness that jumps to full power when motion is detected. Talk about smart lighting!
Versatile Applications for Every Outdoor Space
Whether it’s marking pedestrian crossings, lighting up parking lots, or illuminating water edges and docks, Zon&Licht’s solar lights fit the bill. The WANDLICHT TYP SW series, for example, is perfect for facades, parks, bridges, paths, and gardens, providing bright, reliable light without any wiring fuss. The NEW-RONDO SOLAR models offer 15W or 20W hybrid options, ideal for squares, streets, and driveways. These lights come ready to install on masts and are designed to work without any consumption costs—making them a breeze to maintain and operate.
Advanced Battery Solutions for Reliable Backup Power
Beyond the solar lights themselves, the project also features Redox Vanadium flow batteries, known for their long lifecycle and robust performance. With over 12 years of practical application experience in streets, bike paths, bus shelters, airfields, and runways, these batteries provide 4 to 12 hours of backup capacity on demand. They come with a 5-year warranty and a lifecycle of 25 years, offering a truly autarkic (self-sufficient) energy solution. Plus, there’s the option for hybrid systems with grid backup, giving flexibility without the need for cables or complex wiring.
Project Impact on Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)
- SDG 7: Affordable and Clean Energy – Promoting solar-powered lighting solutions that reduce reliance on fossil fuels.
- SDG 11: Sustainable Cities and Communities – Enhancing safety and visibility in public spaces with eco-friendly lighting.
- SDG 12: Responsible Consumption and Production – Utilizing long-lasting LEDs and batteries to minimize waste.
- SDG 13: Climate Action – Cutting carbon emissions by using renewable energy sources.
- SDG 15: Life on Land – Protecting wildlife by reducing light pollution and using predator-deterring lighting.
Easy Installation and Maintenance for Everyday Use
One of the standout features of Zon&Licht’s solar lighting is how simple it is to install. Forget about complicated wiring or electrical connections—these lights come ready to hang and adjust. The solar panel can be tilted at 60°, while the light beam itself is adjustable up to 120°, allowing for precise positioning. This flexibility means they can be mounted on roads, walls, docks, or masts with minimal effort. Maintenance is just as straightforward, thanks to durable LiFePO4 batteries and high-quality LEDs designed to last for years without replacement.
