Whichever lunar
illuminator you buy depends on the purpose for which they are going to be used.
The various purposes include illuminating the walkways, strings of illuminators
for decorating purposes, small size bulb stringed illuminators for using on
walls or the roofs, household emergency lights and illuminators to glow a
certain area like or refugee shelters stadiums, etc.
Lunar
illuminators are also used in the outdoor patio of the houses and also the
commercial buildings as they provide freedom to be used without an electric
cord which can be dangerous in rainy and extreme weathers and also costs more.
People who need extra glow in a large area for security purposes should go for lunar illuminators which have the ability to broadcast glow in a wide area. Those who want to illuminate the path ways may should take the advice of solar light suppliers
in their area and select narrower range of lunar illuminators that only glow the pathway.
Lumens are used
to measure the distance of visible glow from the source of glow. The brighter
the glow source the more lumen rating the source will have. Meanwhile 1 watt
produces 20 lumens in normal conditions. But at a lower level of glow lunar
illuminators can come up with much higher lumen ratings. While buying lunar
illuminators, lumens should be considered because low glow levels prevent glare
in the walkways and high levels of brightness in places like swimming pool
covers more area.
Some lunar
illuminators are used to place in certain areas while others can be connected
by strings to be used in longer and larger areas like decks, gardens, parking
areas and sidewalks to provide softer glow. You go for that specific type which
suits your needs or location because the size of the area to be illuminated may
be small or large.
Nowadays, a lot
of lunar illuminators come with replaceable batteries which allow the
convenience of changing batteries whenever needed. This changing of batteries
extend the life time of these illuminators. Some types of the lunar
illuminators need to be replaced after a specific time when they don’t continue
to glow. Illuminators which come without replaceable batteries are more
advantageous as their prices are low as compared to those which use batteries.
Most
of the lunar illuminators can be adjusted to make them operational in the day
as well. This function proves to be very helpful for additional illumination
and also for motion detection in garages and workshops etc. But solar light suppliers
admonish that
using the lunar illuminators in the night and also in the day time drain the
batteries quickly.
