Overview
Introducing the AC Street Light with Battery Backup, a mains-powered LED street light that keeps working during power cuts. Whether in urban streets or remote rural pathways, this energy-efficient light ensures uninterrupted illumination when the grid drops. Because it keeps the light on during an outage, it is sometimes also known as an inverter street light.
Why this battery-backup street light is unique
An ordinary mains street light goes dark the moment the power does. The Systellar BBCL is a battery backup street light — an inverter street light with a built-in LiFePO4 battery that keeps glowing at full 100% brightness for 3 hours during a power cut (dimming progressively after that to extend the backup) and then recharges itself automatically when the mains return. You get the simplicity of an AC street light with the resilience of an emergency light, without a separate inverter, UPS or solar setup.
- Stays on at full brightness during power cuts: switches to battery the instant mains fail and keeps glowing at 100% brightness — no dimming — vital for night-time security and safety.
- Self-managing dusk-to-dawn: on at dusk, off at dawn, charging through the day — no timers or manual switching.
- Built for Indian outages: ideal for society and apartment pathways, factory and warehouse premises, banquet halls, hospitals and any area that must stay lit when the grid drops.
Why Choose This Light?
- Reliable Backup Power: Equipped with a powerful LiFePO4 battery, it provides 3 hours of full 100% brightness lighting during outages, with progressive dimming after that to extend the backup.
- Automatic Dusk-to-Dawn Functionality: Intelligent sensors activate the light at dusk and turn it off at dawn, saving energy and reducing manual effort.
- Dual Power Modes: Automatically switches between mains electricity and battery backup while recharging itself when power returns.
- Durable and Versatile: Operates efficiently within a voltage range of 110V to 300V, making it suitable for diverse environments across India.
Automatic dusk-to-dawn operation
The light works fully automatically from dusk to dawn. A built-in light sensor switches it ON by itself when daylight fades each evening and switches it OFF at sunrise — there is no timer to programme and no manual switch to operate. Through the day, while the light is off, the unit quietly recharges its LiFePO4 battery so it is always ready for the next night and the next power cut.
- Zero daily effort: nobody has to switch the lights on at night or off in the morning — the light runs itself every day, all year round.
- Always charged, always ready: daytime “off” hours are used to top up the battery, so the 3 hours of full-brightness backup is fully available whenever an outage strikes after dark.
- No wasted daytime power: the light never burns electricity in daylight, so you only pay for the hours it is genuinely needed.
- Reliable, error-free safety: pathways, gates and premises are never left dark by a forgotten switch — lighting comes on automatically every evening and stays on through power cuts.
- Self-adjusting year-round: because it responds to real daylight, the light turns on earlier on dark winter or cloudy evenings and later on long summer days, with no re-setting required.
Where Can It Be Used?
- Pathways in Residential Areas: Ideal for walkways and apartment complexes.
- Industrial Zones: Reliable lighting for warehouses, factories, and godowns.
- Hospitality Spaces: Enhances pathways in hotels, resorts, and banquet halls.
- Critical Areas: Provides dependable lighting in zones that require uninterrupted illumination.

Why buy this instead of a solar street light?
Most people shopping for a “power-cut-proof” outdoor light assume solar is the answer. If you already have a reliable mains connection, this battery-backup light beats an all-in-one solar street light on what matters — for about a third of the price:
- Full, steady brightness every night — fed by the grid, not dependent on yesterday’s sunshine (a solar light is often dim by late night in winter).
- Works in shade, monsoon and near tall buildings, where a solar panel starves and the light fades.
- Same brightness after 2–3 years — the battery is only used during power cuts, not drained and recharged every single day.
- Genuine LiFePO4 battery — lasts roughly 2,000–3,000 charge cycles and stays safe in heat, unlike the ordinary lithium-ion used in many budget lights (which fades within a couple of summers).
When is solar the better choice? If your site has no electricity supply or is remote — then buy solar, and we manufacture a full range of solar street lights too.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Is a battery backup street light the same as an inverter street light?
Yes — they describe the same product. Because it keeps the light running on its built-in battery when the mains supply fails, an AC street light with battery backup is commonly called an inverter street light.
Will this street light stay on during a power cut?
Yes. The moment the mains power fails, it automatically switches to its built-in LiFePO4 battery and keeps glowing at full 100% brightness for 3 hours (progressive dimming after that) — then recharges itself when power returns.
Do I need a separate inverter, UPS or solar panel for it?
No. The battery, charger and automatic changeover are all built into the light, so you do not need any separate inverter, UPS or solar setup — it is a self-contained backup street light.
What is an AC street light with battery backup?
It is an AC mains-powered LED street light with a built-in LiFePO4 battery — sometimes called an inverter street light. It runs on mains electricity normally and automatically switches to battery backup during a power cut so the light never goes off.
How long does the battery backup last?
The integrated LiFePO4 battery provides 3 hours of full-brightness lighting during a power outage, then dims progressively to extend the backup, and recharges itself automatically once mains power returns.
Does it turn on and off automatically?
Yes. Intelligent dusk-to-dawn sensors switch the light on at dusk and off at dawn, saving energy and removing the need for manual switching.
What AC voltage range does it work on?
It operates reliably across a wide 110V to 300V AC range, making it suitable for the fluctuating power conditions found across India.
Is it weatherproof?
Yes. It uses a rugged aluminum pressure die-cast body with an IP65 rating for excellent protection against rain and dust.
Where is this light typically used?
It is ideal for residential pathways and apartment complexes, industrial zones such as warehouses and factories, hospitality spaces like hotels and resorts, and any critical area that needs uninterrupted lighting.
