The AE3C Series solar street light represents a breakthrough in sustainable outdoor lighting, combining LEADSUN’s patented all-in-one technology with superior performance, durability, and intelligent energy management. Each unit integrates the solar panel, LED luminaire, lithium battery, and PIR motion sensor into one compact housing, streamlining installation and eliminating the need for complex wiring. This innovative design allows for effortless setup, easy maintenance, and a significant reduction in both labor and long-term operational costs. Built as a complete solar-powered system, the AE3C Series offers dependable lighting performance for streets, parks, residential developments, campuses, and remote areas where grid power is limited or unavailable.
At the core of the AE3C system is a monocrystalline solar module with a conversion efficiency of up to 23%, ensuring maximum energy capture and output. Its advanced light-harvesting capability works synergistically with the integrated smart controller to optimize energy utilization throughout the day and night. The module maintains strong performance even in low-light conditions and is built for long-term reliability, resulting in substantial energy savings and reduced maintenance requirements.
The integrated smart controller manages every aspect of the system’s operation. It ensures intelligent lighting control by automatically adjusting brightness based on motion detection and ambient light levels, maximizing battery life and efficiency. The controller also provides comprehensive protection against overvoltage, overcurrent, and temperature fluctuations, ensuring long-lasting performance in outdoor environments. Maintenance is simplified through waterproof ports and a modular interface, allowing for quick inspection and servicing when needed.
Powering the system is LEADSUN’s dual LiFePO4 battery configuration, which emphasizes both performance and environmental responsibility. These lithium iron phosphate batteries contain no harmful metals and utilize patented shallow charge and discharge technology, supporting over 4,000 cycles for an expected lifespan exceeding eight years. Comprehensive electronic protections safeguard against overcharge, overdischarge, and temperature extremes, ensuring stable and long-lasting energy storage even in challenging weather conditions.
The AE3C’s robust structural design enhances reliability in all climates. Its modular aluminum alloy housing is corrosion-resistant and finished with a multi-layer surface treatment to maintain appearance and integrity over time. Rated IP66 and IK08, the system is fully protected from dust, water, and impact, making it ideal for deployment in rain, snow, and storm-prone environments. The modular construction allows flexible maintenance and component replacement, extending service life and simplifying upgrades.
For optimal lighting performance, the AE3C utilizes a high-efficiency LED light source capable of producing up to 200 lumens per watt at 25°C. The optical system includes precision-cutoff lenses that minimize glare and light pollution while ensuring uniform coverage and high visibility. A durable, anti-UV polycarbonate sealing lens protects the LEDs from aging and impact damage, preserving light quality and output over time. The system employs LEADSUN’s proprietary Bat Wing light distribution, which optimizes beam spread and uniformity, enabling users to select the most suitable optical pattern (T2 or T3) based on roadway or area lighting requirements.
A built-in PIR motion detection system allows the light to automatically adjust its brightness depending on activity levels. When motion is detected, the light operates at full brightness for 30 seconds before dimming to 30% brightness during inactivity. This smart dimming strategy extends battery runtime and ensures reliable operation throughout the night, while maintaining adequate illumination for safety and security.
Three models within the AE3C series address varying application needs. The AE3C6020N incorporates a 60W solar module and a 308Wh lithium battery powering 36 LED chips, achieving a light output of 20W with a luminous flux of 3,800 lumens. The fixture supports both bright and dim modes, providing up to 13 hours of continuous operation in bright mode and up to 44 hours in dim mode. The AE3C6020N measures 1079mm in length and weighs 17.5kg, suitable for installation heights from 4 to 7 meters with spacing between 15 and 25 meters.
The AE3C9030Q and AE3C9040R models use a larger 90W solar module paired with 512Wh and 615Wh batteries respectively, supporting 30W and 40W LED outputs. Both models utilize the same 36 LED chips and offer luminous flux levels of 5,550 and 7,200 lumens. They are equipped with optional wireless control functionality, allowing for remote monitoring and adjustment of lighting parameters. Each unit measures 1421mm in length, weighs approximately 22kg, and is suitable for pole heights between 6 and 8 meters with installation distances of 25 to 35 meters.
All AE3C Series models support color temperatures ranging from 3000K to 5000K and utilize a visual beam spread of 140°×70° to ensure broad, uniform coverage. Each luminaire is constructed to withstand extreme temperatures, with charging functionality between 0°C and 51°C, discharge capability from -20°C to 60°C, and storage tolerance down to -20°C. The fixtures are wind-load rated up to 130 mph and are compatible with poles or tenons ranging from 70 to 76mm in diameter.
Combining robust construction, advanced energy management, and intelligent motion control, the AE3C Series solar street light delivers dependable off-grid lighting performance for a wide range of outdoor applications. It represents a comprehensive, maintenance-friendly, and sustainable lighting solution that reduces deployment costs by up to 60% while ensuring long-term reliability and consistent light output in even the most demanding environments.
