Solar Lighting Designs | Solar Billboard Light 2 x 15W LED 6300lm | Powder-Coated Black Aluminium
The Solar Lighting Designs SOLLBB-30 is a solar powered billboard light with two 15W LED modules, rated 6300 lumens combined at 6000K. The SOLLBB-30 runs from a 50W solar panel and a 384Wh LiFePO4 battery, with 2 to 3 nights of autonomy on a full charge. It illuminates automatically at dusk and follows a programmed output cycle through to dawn.
Lighting a billboard or entry statement usually means extending a mains submain to a location with no distribution anywhere near it. Trenching, inspection pits, and civil works routinely cost more than the luminaires. The sign then stays dark while the supply authority connection works through approvals. The SOLLBB-30 removes the mains connection: a 50W solar panel and a 384Wh LiFePO4 battery carry the load, and the system arrives with panel, cables, and mounting brackets for most installations.
Quoting an off-grid signage luminaire against a mains run changes the shape of the whole job. Trenching and switchboard work disappear, so the labour reduces to bracket fixing and luminaire alignment. Solar Lighting Designs supplies the SOLLBB-30 as a plug and play system, which shortens the materials list and keeps the quote clean. Pivoting LED modules let one part number cover signage lit from above or below, so stock holding stays simple.
Features
- Twin 15W LED modules — two Philips LED heads rated 15W each deliver 2 x 3150 lumens, 6300 lumens combined, for small to medium billboards and signs.
- 6000K colour temperature — crisp white output keeps sign artwork and lettering legible from viewing distance after dark.
- 50W solar panel — the SOLLBB-30 charges from a 50W panel, with a full recharge in around 5 hours of good sun.
- 384Wh LiFePO4 battery — lithium iron phosphate storage carries 2 to 3 nights of operation on a full charge.
- Programmed mode of operation — the default program runs 100% output for 2 hours, 80% for 3 hours, then 25% output until dawn.
- Automatic dusk to dawn operation — the SOLLBB-30 illuminates at dusk under its own control and runs the programmed cycle through the night.
- Pivoting LED heads — each module pivots so the beam can be aimed onto the sign face from above or below.
- Sealed aluminium body — fully sealed aluminium housing in a powder-coated black finish for permanent outdoor mounting.
- Adjustable mounting bracket — the supplied bracket carries a 500mm outreach arm and mounts above or below the sign face.
- Complete system supplied — solar panel, cables, mounting brackets, and the pivoting LED fixtures are included for most installations.
- Output tied to battery charge — lumen output is directly related to battery charge, so extended overcast weather reduces both brightness and runtime.
- Two-year warranty — covers faulty workmanship or component failure not influenced by external means, running from the invoice date.
Where to use
- Roadside billboards — the SOLLBB-30 lights small to medium boards for night-time advertising with no supply authority connection to arrange.
- Business and shopfront signage — keeps branding readable after hours on sites where the sign sits well away from the switchboard.
- Sports club sponsor boards — lights perimeter and sponsor signage at grounds where power runs to the clubhouse and nowhere else.
- Estate and building entry statements — the SOLLBB-30 mounts to entry signage at the front boundary, which is usually the furthest point from any supply.
- Rural and remote signage — property, tourism, and roadhouse signs run off-grid on the 50W panel and 384Wh battery.
- Industrial sites and depots — lights gate, yard, and site identification signage without trenching across hardstand or traffic areas.
- Sites awaiting mains connection — signage can be lit from handover night while the permanent supply works through approvals.
The SOLLBB-30 is sized for small to medium billboards and signs, not for area lighting, car park lighting, or large-format boards. Lumen output is directly related to battery charge, so brightness and runtime both fall away when charging is interrupted. The panel needs clear sun through the day, which makes positions under tree cover, awnings, or building overhangs poor candidates.
