Even though LEDs are far more efficient than other light sources, all of our products are designed to be bright and therefore they consume quite a bit of power. Depending on the product and usage, the size of the battery or solar panel required may be impractical, or simply not cost effective.
Our products are designed to give the best light, at the highest quality. Using limited power sources such as batteries, or solar panels, could potentially compromise the integrity of the product, by limiting the light output and lifespan.
However, we have experience in solar and battery powered design, so if you are aware of the limitations but feel that this is right for you, please do not hesitate to contac us.

Many manufacturers claim that their LEDs will last you 100,000 hours or even longer before operating at half brightness. But how valid is this claim?
Quite simply, the LED industry is not yet old enough to validate this figure. LED manufacturers perform numerous accelerated degradation tests, during which they both over heat and overdrive the LEDs until they expire.
From these results, they then extrapolate the figures to find the expected life span under normal conditions. From these tests, many manufacturers concluded the 100,000 hour figure. There are also many LED manufacturers who give an expected lifespan of anywhere from 60,000 to 80,000 hours.
A major factor in the longevity of LEDs is in the way that they are used - in the output. Different colours consume various amounts of energy, thus changing their total lifespan. Furthermore, the expected lifespan also assumes that the LEDs are operating at full brightness, which, depending on the application, may or may not be true.
We can see from the above that there is really no way to exactly confirm the LED lifespan of 100,000 hours. In reality, they may last much longer than this, or perhaps expire earlier. In any case, their lifespan is far longer than any other lighting technology currently available.
We have designed all ESI Lighting LED products to be under driven, ensuring that you will get maximum lifespan out of your products.
