As the voltage across the electric double layer capacitor decreases, the current drawn by the DC / DC converter 90a increases to keep the power to the load constant. The electric double layer capacitor is charged / discharged by a series / parallel switching circuit (not shown) that switches the number of electric double layer capacitors connected in series according to the output voltage. Is called.

  The outdoor light 1 of the present invention can be set so that the power generated by the solar panel 4 is charged in the power supply unit 9 by turning off the illumination unit 5 by the ambient illuminance detected by the illuminance sensor 26 during the daytime. In addition, the illumination unit 5 can be set to automatically turn on at night. Further, at night, etc., since the power of the power supply unit 9 charged by the solar panel 4 is used in the daytime, the illumination unit 5 is turned on and the illumination unit 5 illuminates a specific area. In this state, for example, when a person passes through the specific area, the person is detected by the sensor 7 and the control device 8 controls the electronic camera 6 to photograph the person.

  In this way, at night, etc., since the power to the illumination unit 5 and the electronic camera 6 is all supplied from the power supply unit 9, the brightness of the illumination unit 5 decreases due to the voltage drop of the power supply unit 9, The camera 6 may not work. For this reason, the personal computer 22 as the user terminal 10 is connected via the network 11 from the power unit charge amount confirmation unit 14 that detects the inability to operate the illumination unit 5, the electronic camera 6, etc. by detecting the charge amount of the power unit 9. The inability to operate can be known at the mobile communication terminal 23, which is useful for confirming the normal operation of the outdoor light device, can respond quickly even if a malfunction occurs, and is suitable for maintenance.

  In addition, since the image captured by the electronic camera 6 can be distributed to the network 11 by wireless LAN, the user 11 uses the network 11 to check the person around the installation location of the outdoor light 1 in real time using the user terminal 10. As a result, the outdoor lamp 1 having a composite function that constitutes a part of the security system in the surrounding area can be provided. Thus, the power self-contained outdoor lamp 1 is provided with a composite function, so that the added value can be increased. Furthermore, since it is an independent power generation type and does not require wiring work, it does not require any special maintenance, so that it can be installed anywhere freely in the daytime and has versatility.

  In addition, since the camera control unit 13 operates the electronic camera 6 on the condition that the imaging target is detected by the sensor 7 that is constantly maintained in the operating state, the power consumed by the electronic camera 6 Is not used except when necessary, so that power can be saved. If this photographing target is a person, it can be used for a part of a crime prevention system around the outdoor light 1 and can contribute to crime prevention / monitoring measures. As a result, a specific area can be photographed with the electronic camera 6 by the power supply unit 9 that stores the power generated by the solar panel 4 simply by installing it in a place where it is exposed to sunlight. Because it is unnecessary, you can freely choose the installation location if it is exposed to sunlight in the daytime, and needs crime prevention / monitoring, for example, in the vicinity of homes of ordinary households, in commercial stores, factories, etc. It can be installed in the surroundings, on the civil engineering / building work site, in addition to parking lots (including parking lots such as time-rented parking lots and expressways), streets, parks, wide areas such as gardens, etc. The outdoor lamp 1 useful for monitoring measures can be provided.
