Smartlight
Smart from the start
Commercial Solar Outdoor Lighting
We keep our solutions simple with the Smartlight—one proven, powerful green solar light that meets a wide range of needs. Its unique black solar panel looks elegant, day or night. No hanging wires or bulky battery box. solar panel that looks like a high school science project.
We use powerful components and smart controls to provide all the energy you need in a sleek package, so you can count on all-night lighting all year around.
Implementation of our solar streetlight with pole and battery is fast and easy. Our industrial solar lights are pre-wired, loaded and tested in our ISO 9001 facility. That translates to error-free installation and low maintenance.
Dark-Sky Standards
We can deliver light where it matters, on your site—not spilling over into neighboring properties or up into the night sky.
Smart at the heart
At the heart of every Smartlight, you’ll find the Power 365 Power Center, our innovative solution for smart storage and management. Our Power 365 Center brings you:
- Protection from water and dust ingress
- Water-tight, plug-and-play connectors
- Superior battery technology for longer life and an attractive profile
- On-board anti-blackout protection
Smart batteries for exceptional performance
The biggest maintenance expense associated with commercial solar outdoor lighting is battery replacement. Fonroche’s own Nickel Alloy (NiMH) batteries outperform AGM, lithium and gel batteries in the field. We formulated our batteries to excel in tough temperature ranges, so they have very wide temperature tolerances—for charging and operating. Because of the Power 365 advantage, SmartLights are the most reliable solar street lights for sale in the world.
Charging Temperature:
- Most lithium ion batteries discharge in cold climates but don’t accept a charge below freezing.
- Fonroche’s industrial NiMH battery formulation charges and discharges in temperatures from -40°F to +158°F.
Operating Temperature:
- Heat shortens the life of lead acid batteries very quickly. That’s why we developed the Power 365 NiMH battery/charging system, which is optimized to meet the rugged challenges of solar lighting. It’s built for operating in temperatures up 158° F.
Smart for the environment
Our Smartlight is the smart choice for industrial solar lighting—and the green choice for the environment. You’ll find smart choices throughout the design of our Smartlight, aimed at minimizing environmental impact and maximizing sustainability—while controlling costs. For example, all of Smartlight’s components can be recycled, including its batteries, solar panels, and its light pole.
Whether your light pole is made of galvanized steel or corrosion-resistant, lightweight, aluminum—it's an environmentally responsible material. Both materials can be recycled and the material is used again and again. Their long life lowers environmental impact even more. When its work is done, Smartlight poles are 100% recyclable.
