Overview
The 38W Solar Street Light (High Power Model 1285, 6 Lens) is a high-capacity, all-in-one off-grid solar lighting system designed for wide housing society main roads, large colony primary boulevards, gated community main access roads, rural district roads, commercial estate entrance roads, large open parking areas, and farmhouse estate primary driveways across India. Featuring 324 Pcs 1W lens-type LED chips at a combined 350W output in cool white and a 3.2V 60Ah LiFePO4 battery providing 18–24 hours of illumination at installation heights of 8–12 metres, the High Power 1285 delivers an extended backup specification and mounting height range that positions it firmly in the commercial and semi-municipal road lighting segment. A 5V 65W monocrystalline solar panel, IP65 weatherproofing, adjustable bracket, radar motion sensor, and wireless remote control with timed modes are integrated into a single housing. Pole diameter is specified at 70mm — the largest in the LumenCity range and the standard diameter for heavy-duty Indian municipal and commercial lighting poles.
LED Performance & Light Output
The High Power 1285 integrates 324 Pcs 1W lens-type LED chips at a combined 350W output in cool white across a 6 Lens optical array. The lens-type LED format is distinct from the SMD chip arrays used in the standard all-in-one range — each 1W chip is paired with a precision optical lens that concentrates and directs its output, producing a higher beam intensity and a more controlled illumination pattern at the 8–12 metre mounting heights for which the 1285 is specified. This optical format is the preferred configuration for high-mast solar street lights on IndiaMart and Amazon.in at 38W–50W, where buyers specifically search for “lens type solar street light” as a quality qualifier. At 350W combined output from 324 lens chips in cool white, the High Power 1285 delivers the road surface luminance required for wide colony main roads and housing society boulevards of 7–10 metres cross-section at 8–10 metre pole heights, and for district road approach lighting at 10–12 metre heights where road widths reach 8–12 metres.
Battery – LiFePO4 60Ah Capacity & Backup
The 3.2V 60Ah LiFePO4 battery in the High Power 1285 is the largest battery capacity in the standard LumenCity all-in-one solar street light range and is the primary enabler of the 18–24 hour lighting duration specification. At 60Ah, the LiFePO4 battery stores sufficient energy to power the 350W LED array — through the sensor’s intelligent dimming management — across 18–24 hours of nightly operation under ideal sensor conditions, covering India’s longest winter nights (up to 14 hours in northern states) and providing a meaningful reserve for consecutive overcast monsoon days when the 65W monocrystalline panel cannot achieve full daily recharge. Competing high-power 38W solar street lights on Amazon.in and IndiaMart typically specify 20–40Ah batteries at equivalent wattage; the High Power 1285’s 60Ah LiFePO4 specification is the defining differentiator for housing society engineering committees, municipal procurement officers, and township developers comparing extended-backup solar road lighting options in India. LiFePO4 at 60Ah delivers 2,000+ charge-discharge cycles — more than five years of daily operation — with no lead-acid maintenance requirements and no electrolyte safety concerns in the pole-top housing.
Body Build & Weatherproofing
The High Power 1285 carries an IP65 weatherproofing certification, confirming complete dust ingress protection and resistance to water jets from any direction. At 85.5 × 44.5 × 6.8 cm, the High Power 1285 is the largest standard all-in-one housing in the LumenCity range at this wattage level, with the widest panel and LED array footprint enabling the 324-chip 6 Lens optical configuration. The 6.8 cm slim-depth profile minimises the unit’s aerodynamic cross-section at the 8–12 metre installation height, reducing wind load on the 70mm pole. Pole diameter compatibility is specified at 70mm — the standard diameter for Indian municipal-grade and commercial-application solar street light poles, covering the heavy-duty GI poles used in housing society main boulevard, district road, and industrial estate road lighting projects. The adjustable bracket, visible in the product image, enables the LED housing angle to be set independently of the pole orientation, allowing optimal beam direction for asymmetric road configurations or non-standard pole placements. IP65 sealing protects all internal components across India’s full range of outdoor climate stresses.
Smart Controls & Operating Modes
The High Power 1285 is equipped with a radar motion sensor and wireless remote control. Sensor operation follows the standard three-state pattern: 10% optical brightness at standby, 100% on motion detection, 15% for 30 seconds post-motion. At 350W LED output, sensor dimming is essential for 18–24 hour battery performance — without it, continuous 350W draw would exhaust the 60Ah LiFePO4 battery in approximately 11 hours, which falls short of the upper 24-hour backup claim and the extended dusk-to-dawn winter cycles of northern India. Sensor dimming reduces average consumption to approximately 50–80W on low-to-medium traffic housing society main roads and district highways, enabling the 60Ah battery to achieve 18–24 hour operation under ideal conditions. Remote modes per the image include OFF/ON, AUTO (motion sensor dusk-to-dawn), Increase Brightness, Decrease Brightness, and timed modes at 3H (full brightness for 2 hours, then off), 5H (full brightness for 3 hours, then off), and 8H (full brightness for 4 hours, then off). The timed brightness modes reduce average nightly energy consumption on high-traffic peak-hour roads, extending battery performance on consecutive low-solar days during India’s monsoon season.
Solar Panel & Charging Efficiency
The 5V 65W monocrystalline solar panel integrated into the High Power 1285 is the largest panel in the standard LumenCity all-in-one range, providing the daily energy harvest required to replenish the 60Ah LiFePO4 battery within the 6–8 hour charging window. At 65W rated panel output, the monocrystalline silicon cells achieve conversion efficiencies of 19–22% under standard test conditions — significantly above polycrystalline alternatives at the same panel surface area. The efficiency advantage is most relevant in India during the June–September monsoon season when competing polycrystalline-equipped products most commonly fail to achieve full daily recharge, and during the short solar days of north Indian winters when lower irradiance and reduced sun hours limit panel output. For large-scale housing society and township developer projects deploying the 38W High Power model across multiple poles, the monocrystalline panel’s consistent charging performance across all seasons reduces the frequency of under-charged batteries and pre-dawn lighting failures that are the primary cause of housing society committee complaints about solar street light performance. The integrated adjustable bracket enables the panel angle to be optimised for specific site latitude conditions, enhancing daily harvest versus fixed-angle all-in-one units.
Installation & Mounting
The High Power 1285 installs without external wiring, underground cable trenching, or grid connection. The fully pre-assembled unit mounts on a 70mm diameter pole at 8–12 metres height using the adjustable bracket. The adjustable bracket enables the LED housing angle to be set independently of the pole arm orientation — a practical advantage on roads where the pole is not perfectly perpendicular to the kerb, or where the road’s beam requirement is asymmetric. At 8–12 metres, the High Power 1285 is appropriate for wide housing society main roads, large colony boulevards, large open parking areas (where 8–10 metre height provides even coverage across 10–15 metre wide areas), and district road approach lighting where lower pole heights would create unacceptably low ground-level luminance on wide road cross-sections. The off-grid design eliminates the civil works cost of underground power cabling to each pole — the dominant cost component of conventional municipal road lighting projects in India — making the 38W High Power model commercially viable for rural district road lighting tenders, panchayat highway approach schemes, and new township primary boulevard lighting where grid extension per pole is impractical. Supplied at 1 unit per carton.
