LED fish light market spring is coming？

On July 28, at the ISLE Exhibition in Guangzhou, Guangdong Photoelectric Technology Association successfully held the establishment ceremony of the Marine photoelectric Professional Committee, the members of the Marine photoelectric Professional committee are mainly South China University of Technology, Guangdong Ocean University and enterprises engaged in the Marine photoelectric industry. This is China’s first LED service in the Marine field of the group organization, like the awakening of insects thunder, sounded the horn to enter China’s 2019 LED fish lamp market. LED fish light market spring really come? To this end, the author grilled for everyone in recent years LED fish lamp happened those things.

In 2004, the Japanese people began to test LED fish-collecting lamps under the subsidy of the state.

In 2005, Japan began to study the use of LED fish-collecting lamps to replace metal halide fish-collecting lamps, in order to save energy consumption, increase fishing output, and improve the working environment.

Since 2006, Japan’s incandescent lamps have been replaced with centralized light distribution LED lamps, and metal halide lamps have been replaced with diffused light distribution LED lamps.

In 2007, Japan built the world’s first fully equipped fishing boat with LED fishing lights.

In 2008, the Japanese autumn saknife rod was fully replaced by the net fishing vessel and diffused light distribution LED lights, which can have the same fish collection effect as using the original fish collection lamp, and the general fuel consumption was reduced by 20%-40%

In 2009, Japan built a second LED fishing boat fully equipped with fishing lights.

In 2010, Taiwan Chenggong University and Ocean University developed high-brightness LED lamps to replace traditional fish lamps, and the first experimental ship to install LED fish lamps was refit.

In 2011, China’s first LED fish lamp patent and LED fish lamp product was born.

In 2012, China’s 1000W water LED fishing light began to be tested on fishing boats such as “Ningtai 76″ in Zhejiang.

In 2013, China’s 300W water LED fishing light began offshore tests on fishing boats such as “Yueyang Xiyu 33222″ in Yangjiang, Guangdong; Guangzhou Panyu carried out renovation test in “Yueyu 01024″.

In 2015, China’s 600W water LED fishing lights began offshore tests on fishing boats such as Fujian Fuding 07070. The semiconductor lighting network released the test results of Shanghai Ocean University and the enterprise “LED fish lamp is questioned, and the real ship test LED has no negative impact on the output”.

In 2016, China’s 300W water LED fish lamp carried out the “bright action” offshore test in Guangxi; Autumn knife fish lamp in Shandong “Luhuangyuan Yu No. 117/118″ began the ocean test. China Lighting Electrical Appliances Association concerned about the “US Department of Defense to encourage the application of LED lighting in the Navy”, China light network forwarded the LED fishing lamp fishing efficiency is too high, resulting in the Indian government issued a “ban order” news.

In 2017, China’s 1200W water LED fishing light carried out an ocean squid fishing boat test in Shidao, Shandong.

In 2018, the major fishery exhibition and sea Expo can see the increasing number of LED fish lamp enterprises.

In 2023, Jin Hong Factory launched the most affordable 1000w LED fishing light, which won the recognition of fishermen in Indonesia. The monthly shipment is about 2000 pieces.
500W LED fisihng light, a product for Vietnamese fishing boats, is also being upgraded.

LED fish lamp after more than 10 years, what is the current situation of the market? Triggered the industry hot discussion.

After investigation, a total of 135 technical patents in the field of LED fish lamps in China from 2011 to 2018, including 42 inventions, 67 utility models, and 26 appearance. Dozens of academic papers, and last year, Zhejiang Province just released the “DB33/T-2018 light Seine fishing vessel fishing lamp maximum total power requirements” local standards, to carry out the intervention of research institutions have the Chinese Academy of Sciences Institute of Engineering thermal physics, Shanghai Ocean University, Guangdong Ocean University, Shandong Academy of Sciences, production of more than 100 enterprises, East and South China account for the largest proportion, followed by North and Northeast China. Foreign LED fish lamp research institutions and enterprises mainly have South Korea Samsung (Unilight), Tokyo Marine University, Japan wireless, Japan Tuo Yang, Japan East and Electric, Guye Electric and so on. It is understood that 75% of the traditional fish lamp market in Asia is occupied by South Korea Samsung and Japan Tuo Yang two, and Japan Tuo Yang research out of the LED fish lamp is only sold in Japan, and the external price is amazing.

First, how big is the LED fish lamp market?
LED fish lights are similar to LED plant lights, all belong to the category of biological agricultural lighting, which is a cross-science of lighting and biology, and the experience is similar. LED plant lights from 2004 to the present, there are 1127 patents, many participating enterprises, the market size appears, and the industrial support is sound. According to LED inside statistics, the global plant lighting market size in 2016 was 575 million US dollars, with a compound annual growth rate of 30%, and the total number of artificial plant factories in China in 2016 has reached about 100, second only to Japan. LED fishing light can become a climate depends on the market capacity, according to the network public information shows that the total number of existing fishing vessels in China is 1.06 million, of which 316,000 deep-sea fishing vessels, lighting fishing vessels data is unknown, Taiwan, South Korea, Japan fishing vessels also have the development of light-induced fishing vessels, and China’s fishing equipment compared to developed countries still have a larger room for rise, by the lack of offshore fishing resources, The rise of Marine ranching, the number of ocean-going fishing vessels is subject to certain policy control and other factors, China’s fishing vessels currently have a downward trend in ship conversion, but according to conservative estimates in the industry, the future replacement of LED fishing lights the global scale is still at least 100 billion yuan.

Second, what is the application conclusion of LED fish lamp?
LED fishing light used in fishing boats, China’s early use of wooden sailing boats for fishing, after the founding of the improvement and mobile mode, the introduction of light purse Seine technology from Taiwan in the 1990s, coupled with steel motor boat operation mode, the 21st century due to the glass boat hull light, fast speed, high degree of automation, Japan and Taiwan widely used, China has also begun to subsidize the construction of fiberglass fishing vessels, due to differences in fishing laws and regions, the standardization of fishing vessels in China is not high. The fishing boat lights, from the most original torches, to liquefied steam, acetylene lamps, kerosene light fishing, upgrade to dry battery based incandescent lamps, to the generator for energy, metal halide lamps, halogen lamps and other light sources for light fishing. The emergence of LED fish-collecting lights, which account for 15%-35% of the power consumption of fishing vessels, can directly save 40%-60% of the fuel consumption. According to the results of the LED fishing light test in China in the past eight years, the LED fishing light saves more than 60% of the fuel (the reason is no longer detailed, there are many public test data in the industry), has no negative impact on the fishing yield, reduces the health impact of ultraviolet on the fishing crew, reduces the seawater pollution caused by the damage of the light source, reduces the maintenance cost and other advantages. A general and stable conclusion has been reached.

Third, what are the related policy directions of LED fish lamps?
Data show that in the Marine fishing and fishing boats developed countries Japan has clearly banned the installation of new ships of gold halogen lamps, most of China’s current fishing vessels still use traditional gold lamps and halogen lamps, its power, high energy consumption, short life, serious waste of light source, and the resulting ultraviolet radiation has a greater impact on the health of the crew, replacement and upgrading is imminent. We are concerned about a range of policies relating to Marine fisheries:
The “13th Five-Year Plan” for the development of the national Marine economy wrote that due to overfishing, offshore fishery resources have been scarce, offshore fishing has been controlled, the growth of closed fishing periods, fishery resources began to conserve, encourage the increase of offshore fishing, encourage the construction of energy-saving and environmentally friendly fishing vessels, and encourage the upgrade of Marine scientific and technological equipment. Encourage the construction of offshore Marine pastures, encourage leading application demonstration, seize the sea along the way to go out and so on.
Agricultural Office and Fishery (2015) No. 65 Notice of the General Office of the Ministry of Agriculture on Printing and Distributing the Implementation Plan for the Adjustment of the Oil Price Subsidy Policy of Domestic Fishery Fishing and Aquaculture Industry is used for the diesel subsidy of fishermen from 2015 to 2019, which is expected to be reduced by 40% after 2019, to promote the reduction of fishermen’s vessels to production and the renewal and transformation of fishing vessels.
In 2018, the Department of Fisheries of Guangdong Province issued the Implementation Plan of the Fishery Safety Production Equipment Construction Project of Guangdong Province in 2018 (Fishing Vessel Guidance and Safety Equipment Construction), and the provincial finance arranged 50 million yuan of fishery oil price subsidy adjustment funds (provincial overall planning part) to support the construction of fishery safety production equipment in our province. Mainly for fishing boats to install AIS shipborne terminal equipment and Beidou satellite shipborne terminal equipment, AIS shipborne terminal 2,768 large and medium-sized fishing boats, 18,944 small fishing boats, Beidou satellite shipborne terminal equipped with 2,041. The project will be implemented from June 2018 to May 2019, with a total cycle of 12 months.

…

In short, from the reduction of ship to production, the protection of offshore fishery resources to the renewal and transformation of fishing vessels, light trapping is superior to any other form of fishing such as trawling, just as the fishing vessel beidou assembly has received sufficient attention from the policy and is already in progress, and how far is the policy of upgrading the fishing lamp? If there can be relevant policies for the demonstration application of “oil replacement lights” and “ten ports and hundred ships”, energy saving and consumption reduction, and the promotion of Marine green environmental protection development, the upgrading of fishing equipment can really be implemented.

Fourth, how is the market reaction of LED fish lamp?
China’s traditional light fishing boat gold halide lamp still rely on imports to solve, a part of the domestic gold halide lamp manufacturers market share is not high, and the new LED fish lamp enterprises, the technical level of good and bad, the lack of industry standards, plagiarism and homogenization is serious, and Japan’s similar products on the Internet price is basically more than 5 times the domestic, Restricting the development of China’s LED fish light market is no longer technology and price, but fishermen generally buy domestic low-quality products online, there is a resistance to LED fish light “not deep” and “can not catch fish”.

Is it correct for fishermen to talk about the “LED” color change? The technical papers of specific industry academic institutions and the experimental results of enterprises are sufficient to prove that this is not the case. However, the author’s analysis of the market’s performance is not surprising, for three reasons:
First, the emergence of new products needs to stand the test of time and users, after all, actions speak louder than words.
Second, there is no policy encouragement and large-scale promotion of new products.
Third, the lack of norms in the industry, its own uneven, some bad products do give the existing traditional fish lamps have the opportunity to amplify the negative.

Of course, from the observation of the market, the acceptance of LED fish light underwater light is higher than the water light.

Five, what are the types of LED fish lamp enterprises?
LED fish lights seem to be on a whim, so that many companies flocked to. After the above data found that China’s LED fish lamp research also has time, the need for enough patience, capital and technical strength. After statistics, at present, there are roughly the following types of LED fish lamp enterprises in China:
One is Marine equipment manufacturing enterprises, mainly producing engine sets, fishing nets, cranes, fishing lights and other equipment on fishing boats.
The second is the traditional fishing lamp manufacturing enterprises, early to ship lamps, including signal lights, searchlights, ship lights, deck lights, etc., some or to plant agricultural lighting HID lights, HID fishing lights and so on.
The three categories are LED lighting enterprises, with LED light sources as the main peripheral lighting products.

The author believes that the progress of any industry is inseparable from the encouragement of industry associations, universities and research institutes, investors, technology and the government, and looks forward to more participants on the way to becoming a maritime power and a strong province. In the process of accelerating the promotion of the upgrading of fishing vessels, it is hoped that the large province of Marine economy can really pay attention to LED fishing lights. Whether LED fish lamps can quickly become an emerging market for LED lights and expand the industry, it still takes time. It has become inevitable for LED fish collecting lamps to replace the traditional MH fish collecting lamps in shallow water fish schools. Universal application for the benefit of fishermen, we hope that this day is getting closer and closer.
