Introduction
The solar-LED streetlight controller consists of one 80 W battery charger and one 25 W LED
driver. During the daytime, when there is sufficient sunlight, the charger converts the
electricity from the solar panel and charges the battery. At nighttime, the battery powers on
the LED lamp as streetlight.
If it is rainy or cloudy for several continuous days, the battery will gradually run out of power.
The controller then resorts to the AC mains supply to power on the LED until the battery has
had time to fully charge again.
