Fiberoptics - a wonder of the world in your garden

 

Fiberoptics - a wonder of the world in your gardenThe use of fiberoptics, or more simply, fiber optics, to illuminate personal plots, is becoming increasingly popular today. Despite the high cost of this type of light fixtures, more and more people opt for them. And there are objective reasons for this.

Firstly, an optical fiber is absolutely fireproof, since it is not a light source, but a light-conducting medium.

Secondly, the capabilities of light filters, which easily allow you to change the color of light, create a simply amazing effect.

Thirdly, the fiber optic cable is completely sealed, which gives truly unlimited possibilities when choosing its location (it can equally well be placed even on a tree, even at the bottom of a reservoir).

Fourthly, this type of cable is flexible and very heat-resistant, and also absolutely not subject to the destructive force of the cold (can withstand temperature drops to -40). In addition, fiber optics have another definite plus - fiber-optic cable is completely maintenance-free.

In addition to the technical advantages that distinguish fiber from others types of garden lighting, fiberoptics provides endless possibilities for its decorative use. At the same time, allowing you to play not only with form, but also with color.

A variety of lighting effects are achieved through the interaction of filters on the light source and special electronic systems, thanks to which you can easily change the color of lighting, create various effects - starry sky, sparkling curtains, colorful panels, or a wide variety of patterns.

So, when choosing the type of lighting for your garden, do not rush to give up fiber optics. Yes, it is expensive, but how practical it is, and most importantly, it is safe for life. Well, the beauty and possibilities of using fiber-optic lighting as design elements of your garden is not worth talking about. Try it, fiberoptics will not leave you indifferent!

    Hello. I read your article with enthusiasm. almost persuaded. but because of his pickiness, he began to understand fibrooptics in more detail. It turns out that not everything is as beautiful as we would like. Firstly, the fiberoptic system consists of a light source, a light-conducting cable of a certain diameter and length, on the torus of which optical nozzles can be installed. A lot depends on the compatibility of these components. As usual, we have a problem in that we have to combine elements from different manufacturers during installation, since there are no unification of these elements among domestic manufacturers and foreign ones. Secondly, the unjustified cost of fiber, light sources and accessories. There is still a very important price point: how many fibers can be brought to your source. Thirdly, it is a very poor filtering of thermal radiation. The end of the cable inserted into the emitter overheats and melts, i.e., periodically it is necessary to cut off the melted part of the fiber, pushing the cable inward. But the end must be specially treated, otherwise part of the light may not enter it, although it will fall on its surface.
