This collection features solar-powered post top lights for street, pathway and pedestrian lighting applications, including the SAVAYA solar post top light and the Dark Sky-approved IVY solar post top light. Both are self-contained solar lighting units suited to installations where mains power is unavailable or impractical.
Solar post top lights are typically used by councils, developers and facilities managers to light roads, paths and public spaces without the cost of trenching for mains power.
What's included:
- SAVAYA Solar Post Top Light: a solar-powered post top luminaire for street and pedestrian lighting applications
- IVY Dark Sky Approved Solar Post Top Light: a Dark Sky-approved solar post top light designed to reduce light spill and glare
Use cases:
- Councils and developers: street and pathway lighting for new estates, parks and public spaces without mains power infrastructure
- Facilities and site managers: lighting for car parks, driveways and site perimeters where running mains cabling is impractical
FAQs
What does "Dark Sky Approved" mean for the IVY light?
Dark Sky approval indicates a light fitting has been designed to minimise upward light spill and glare, helping reduce light pollution while still providing effective ground-level lighting. This makes the IVY light suited to sensitive locations such as near residential areas or natural environments.
Do solar post top lights need mains power at all?
No, solar post top lights such as the SAVAYA and IVY units are self-contained, using an integrated solar panel and battery to charge during the day and power the light at night, removing the need for a mains power connection or trenching.
What lighting standard applies to street and pathway lighting in Australia?
Public road and pathway lighting in Australia is generally guided by the AS/NZS 1158 road lighting series, which sets out lighting categories and performance requirements. Confirm the required lighting category for your specific application with your project engineer or local authority.
Are these lights suitable for both street and pedestrian applications?
Both the SAVAYA and IVY solar post top lights are suited to street and pedestrian lighting applications; confirm pole height, light output and mounting requirements against your specific site plan before selecting a unit.
