Upgrade the streets of your city to LED

Correct LED street lighting must guarantee maximum visual quality, safety and energy efficiency. The goal of street lighting is therefore to allow citizens to move in total safety with excellent visibility conditions and, at the same time, allow municipalities to save on energy costs.

Light source stability

LED streetlight light source conductivity is very stable, there will be no light interruption, misdirection and other phenomena in the use of the process. This is due to its advanced semiconductor light-emitting technology, which ensures that the current is stabilized through the light-emitting diode, so that the light output is always uniform and continuous, even if the long working hours are not easy to flicker or extinguish the situation. Its surface is made of high-quality tempered glass, after a special process, not only the hardness is extremely high, with excellent explosion-proof, shockproof performance, but also has excellent waterproof ability, to meet the strict waterproof grade standards, can withstand heavy rain, snow and other inclement weather.

Obvious cost advantage

Although in the initial stage, the installation and laying cost of LED street light is slightly higher than traditional street light, but with its long service life and stable performance, it greatly reduces the subsequent maintenance frequency and cost. Moreover, the energy-saving effect of LED street lights is very outstanding, compared with traditional street lights can save a lot of electricity, long-term use, in the electricity bill can also realize significant cost savings. Comprehensive view, LED street light not only can provide stable and reliable service for city lighting, in the long-term use of the process, its comprehensive cost-effective more advantageous, highly popularized and applied value.

Unicornlite’s LED street light adopts directional light-emitting method, no scattering and diffusion of light, stable light source. Each LED lamp bead is independent of each other and can be adjusted according to environmental changes, realizing the highest efficiency at the lowest cost. Individual LED streetlights have a long lifetime, typically up to 50,000~100,000 hours.

Why choose LED street lighting?

Manyadvantages for the public administrationand for citizens.

The LED does not pollute
The LED does not pollute
Unicornlite’s LED street light adopts green lighting technology, with semiconductor light-emitting diode as the core light source, does not contain harmful substances such as mercury, etc., in the process of production, use and disposal, the pollution of the environment is very small, in line with the concept of sustainable development.
Excellent energy saving
Excellent energy saving
through the built-in light sensor, time controller and Internet of Things technology, can keenly perceive the external environment changes. At night, when the traffic flow and the flow of people is reduced, it automatically reduces the brightness and shortens the lighting time to avoid wasting energy; and when it detects pedestrians and vehicles close to it, or when the weather suddenly becomes dark, it can instantly and rapidly reach the required brightness and provide a stable and sufficient light source.
Lighting effect
Lighting effect
LED streetlights have a power of only 60 watts, but they can achieve a similar illumination level as 250-watt high-pressure sodium lights under similar circumstances; on the contrary, traditional high-pressure sodium lights have a power of up to 250 watts. This means that LED street lights only use traditional high-pressure sodium lights about a quarter of the power, can achieve the same lighting effect, energy saving advantage is self-evident.
Substitution Advantage
Substitution Advantage
After the actual investigation,some cities will replace the original high-pressure sodium lights with LED light source, some sections of the year-on-year power saving rate of up to 30% or so. In addition, under the same power, the copper wire area of LED streetlights is only one-third of that of ordinary streetlights, further reflecting its energy-saving advantages.

OUR ADVANTAGES

OUR ADVANTAGES

What Color Temperature Is Best for LED Street Lights?

3000K to 4000K color temperatures work best for most street lighting applications. We recommend 3000K (warm white) for residential areas and environmentally sensitive zones as it reduces light pollution and provides better visibility for drivers. 4000K (neutral white) works well for commercial districts and major roadways where enhanced visibility is a priority.

How Much Energy Do LED Street Lights Save Compared to Traditional Lighting?

LED street lights deliver 50% to 80% energy savings compared to metal halide and high-pressure sodium systems. A 150W LED fixture typically replaces a 400W metal halide system while providing equal or superior illumination. These savings translate to immediate utility bill reductions and faster project payback periods, usually within 5 years.

What Light Distribution Types Are Used for Street Lighting?

Type 3 and Type 5 optics are most common for roadway applications. Type 3 provides forward throw for roadway illumination with minimal backlight, while Type 5 distributes light in all directions for intersections and wide area coverage. Type 2 works for narrow roads and pedestrian areas, with specific optics selection based on mounting height and spacing requirements.

How Long Do LED Street Light Fixtures Last?

Quality LED street lights operate for 50,000 to 100,000 hours under normal conditions. This translates to approximately 15-25 years of typical nighttime operation, compared to 2-3 years for metal halide systems. Extended lifespan dramatically reduces maintenance costs and eliminates frequent fixture replacements across municipal lighting networks.

What Wattage LED Street Light Do I Need?

Wattage requirements depend on mounting height and road classification. Residential streets typically need 50W to 150W fixtures at 20-25 foot mounting heights. Collector roads perform well with 150W to 250W options, while major arterials require 300W to 400W fixtures mounted 30-40 feet high for proper uniformity and coverage.

How Are Street Lighting Levels Measured and What Standards Apply?

Street lighting uses foot candles or lux measurements with requirements varying by road classification. Major roads require 2-3 foot candles, collector roads need 1-2 foot candles, and residential streets typically require 0.5-1 foot candles. Professional photometric analysis ensures compliance with local municipal standards and proper uniformity ratios.

Why Do Contractors and Municipalities Choose LED Lighting Supply for Street Lighting Projects?

We combine 15+ years of commercial lighting expertise with comprehensive technical support that goes beyond product sales. Our team provides complimentary custom photometric plans, precise energy savings calculations, and utility rebate identification for every project. With 25,000+ completed installations, we understand municipal requirements and provide ongoing technical guidance throughout project implementation and beyond.

What's the Best Way to Design a Street Lighting Layout?

Professional street lighting design requires specialized photometric software to model light distribution patterns, pole spacing, and uniformity ratios. We create detailed lighting plans that account for road width, traffic patterns, and local code requirements. Our design process starts with existing condition audits, then develops optimized layouts that meet performance standards while maximizing energy efficiency.

Can LED Street Lights Be Dimmed or Controlled Automatically?

Modern LED street lights support 0-10V dimming and smart control integration without complex retrofitting. Built-in photocell compatibility enables automatic dusk-to-dawn operation, while advanced control systems allow scheduled dimming and remote monitoring. These features provide additional energy savings and operational flexibility beyond standard on/off switching.
