Smart Technology: Power 365

Durable, weather-resistant solar parking lot lights capable of withstanding extreme weather conditions.

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.

Extreme Temperatures for Solar Lighting Batteries

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.
