With the development and application of electricity and electric lighting, the field of illumination has embraced many new technologies. Traditional incandescent and fluorescent lamps have largely been replaced by modern LED lighting, which has become the most widely used type of lighting today.
The popularity of LED lighting stems from its advantages over traditional incandescent and fluorescent lamps. LED lights are more energy-efficient, offer higher brightness, allow adjustable brightness levels, come in diverse colors, have a longer lifespan, and provide an almost instantaneous startup—lighting up within milliseconds. In contrast, traditional incandescent and fluorescent lamps are less bright and consume more energy, leading to their gradual replacement by LED lighting.
In LED lighting, the design and selection of power sources are crucial, and supercapacitors, as an emerging energy storage component, have found extensive application in LED power supplies.
Supercapacitors (also known as electrochemical capacitors) are a novel type of energy storage device that bridges the gap between traditional capacitors and batteries. They are characterized by high energy density and high power density.
Compared to conventional capacitors, supercapacitors have a much higher energy density, faster charge/discharge rates, and a longer service life. These features make supercapacitors an ideal power source for LED lighting.
Supercapacitors and LED lighting can work together synergistically:
As an auxiliary power source, supercapacitors can provide high-current output in a short time to ensure the smooth startup of LED lighting.
As a transient current balancer, supercapacitors can enhance the stability and reliability of LED lighting in environments where the power supply voltage is unstable or fluctuates.
As a backup power source, supercapacitors play a vital role in scenarios such as emergency lighting and vehicle lighting, ensuring uninterrupted operation of the lighting system.
