5. Installation and maintenance hotspot questions and answers
Organized based on popular questions on Zhihu:
1.Q: Do I need to replace the wiring when modifying LED lights?
A: Most modern excavators can be directly replaced, but models before 2010 are recommended to install a voltage regulator (hotly discussed case: a user saved 40% of electricity after modification)
2.Q: How to judge waterproof performance?
A: Check the IP68 certification mark. Douyin’s actual measurement video shows that high-quality products can continue to work for 72 hours in 1 meter of water depth.
3.Q: How to choose the light color temperature?
A: Industry data shows that 5000K-6000K white light is most suitable for earthmoving operations, while 3000K yellow light is more suitable for foggy conditions.
6. Trend Forecast
The number of reads of the Weibo topic #engineering machinery intelligent lighting # exceeded 1.2 million, and the future may show:
- Intelligent sensor lighting system (automatically adjusts according to ambient light)
- 5G network failure early warning function
- Solar auxiliary power supply module
It is recommended that users choose according to the actual working environment. Users with a high proportion of night construction should give priority to LED solutions, taking into account the balance between brightness and energy consumption. Regularly cleaning the lampshade can improve lighting efficiency by more than 30%. This is also the most widely spread practical tip on short video platforms recently.
