Induction Lighting Better Than LEDs?

Many have not been able to rationalize spending so much money on LED lighting even though more than 50% energy savings can be realized.

Sometimes, it’s not the price at issue, but the difficulty in matching incandescent and fluorescent colors (Kelvin values) to the LED ones. With LEDs it can be harder to achieve that warm light effect which many prefer to the white-blue light commonly found in the cheaper “Home Depot” variety of LEDs. Then there’s the laser-like direction of the LEDs’ light in a narrow beam.

Luckily, there is a compromise: Induction lighting.

What is an induction lamp? It’s a fluorescent type bulb without the metal electrical contacts used to conduct electricity from the fixture to the light-emitting gas inside the bulb. The lamps are capable of saving a generous 40% over their fluorescent counterparts, and some models boast a life expectancy of up to 100,000 hours.

What is the advantage of not having metal contacts on the bulb? When a bulb heats up, the metal and glass components expand and contract by different amounts. After many cycles of heating  and cooling, the lamp’s glass becomes stressed by this pulling and pushing, and the contact area between the glass and metal can become compromised. Eventually, air leaks in and the bulb is no longer functional.

Induction is the process of transmitting energy via an electro-magnetic field. The light emitting gas inside the bulbs is excited, or energized when located within a sufficiently strong EMF, or electro-magnetic field, which is induced by passing alternating current through a coil, or inductor.  This means that electricity-conducting metal contacts are unnecessary on the bulb, and the bulb will experience longer life.

Other advantages of induction lighting are better color rendition, and better control of the bulbs color range from daylight to soft white. The Kelvin values match the accepted standard.

Our induction lighting fixtures and bulbs are manufactured in the United States, and can contribute points towards your LEED project. Please consult with your local expert to determine if inductive lighting is right for your project and will, in fact, translate into LEED points and the resultant tax savings.

Enigin Eniscope Smart Meter Brochure

Click on the image of the meter to see Enigin Eniscope Smart Meter wholesale pricing. (Enigin’s wholesale price for the UL Listed Eniscope to their distributors is 1200 BPS, but we are liquidating our inventory at a small fraction of that price!)

We have been receiving many requests for the Eniscope brochure via email, but not everyone can receive an 8 MB document over email. Besides, Enigin has not completed their documentation for their UL listed version of the meter targeted for North American markets, but we will be glad to provide you with our copy of the OEM documentation for that meter (see Eniscope wholesale site.)

We are posting it here for your convenience. Note that the Eniscope image in the Enigin brochure contains the previous generation Eniscope, which was suited for European and Asian markets.

The new Eniscope is a UL listed, multiple voltage and 2 or 3 phase – ready,  real-time metering device with long-term historical energy data logging capability (to an external server provided and configured by customer). To purchase a sample at wholesale cost, please visit: Purchase the Enigin Eniscope.

 

The Simplest Solar Heater HTU and Drainback System

When choosing components for your solar water heater, sizing the panels is easy, but matching the components of the HTU, or Heat Exchange Unit can be complicated.

Our integrated drainback system contains all of your solar water heater’s working parts, except for the panels, the piping and the heat transfer fluid, which is this case is distilled water.

The Propac drainback system is an enclosed package containing (2) pumps, a differential temperature controller, a servicable stainless steel heat exchanger which complies with the “double walled HX” requirement in many localities’ or water authorities’ code, temperature sensors, power supply, drainback reservoir and high pressure valves. This system is totally plug-and-play, and is reasonably priced.  The intelligent controls maximize the solar energy absorbed by your panels.

Even if you do pay a little bit more than the sum of the components, consider the labor saved by not having to mount and interconnect individual parts.
