STEINEL GL-S Outdoor pedestal/post lighting LED Silver

Light ON / OFF – automatically and without electricity costs Innovative sensors respond to movements and light levels, automatically switching the powerful LED light ON and OFF again when it is no longer needed. The sensor-switched XSolar GL-S LED light epitomises the combination of efficiency, elegance and flexibility. Bright light, 365 days of the year, zero energy costs. Ideal for ground-mounting on paths, drives, patios and in gardens – wherever there's no power connection. Supplied with bases in different lengths, the XSolar GL-S can be adapted to suit any particular need. The choice is yours: 45 cm, 63 cm or 100 cm high. This flexibility goes hand in hand with a technology line-up that includes LED, sensor, solar-module and high-performance rechargeable battery. One by one: the 0.5-W LED lighting system delivering a sensational 124 lm/W of light is 12times more efficient than a conventional bulb and provides even illumination for an area up to 30 m2. The LED has a life of around 50,000 h or 30 years. Maintenance-free and no need to change a lamp. The XSolar GL-S also comes with an infrared sensor that's integrated underneath the LED panel where it is virtually hidden from view. Angle of coverage: 140°. Reach: 5m radially. This means light is only switched ON when it's needed. The sensor function automatically switches the light ON when light levels fall to 2 lux, with stay-ON time controlled by software. This patented intelligent microprocessor control system ensures maximum energy efficiency. There's also a basic light-level function. Let's take a look at the two veritable stars of energy efficiency featured in this innovative lighting system. To begin with, the XSolar GL-S is equipped with a monocrystalline solar panel with matt-finished mineral glass cover for optimising the conversion of sunlight into energy. Solar panel and LED panel both turn. Additionally integrated, the compass makes easy work of aiming the solar panel due south. On top of this, the XSolar GL-S is also fitted with a powerful 2500 mAh high-performance lithium-iron-phosphate rechargeable battery. This comes fully charged and provides on-demand lighting for up to 50 days from the very first minute. Rechargeable lithium-iron-phosphate batteries are capacitance wizards, they don't discharge and function with any loss of power even in frosty temperatures. They can also be recharged at a micro-USB port – if ever the sun doesn't feel like shining over a prolonged period.
