http://www.metaefficient.com/leds/led-light-bulbs.html#more-2407

I recently had the chance to test two state-of-the-art LED light bulbs from EarthLED.
LED bulbs have many advantages over incandescents and compact fluorescent: they use very
little power, they last 10 years or more, and they contain no hazardous
substances. They are also tough: they can be dropped and turned off and on repeated
without damage, they can operate in very cold or warm temperatures. Read more →  

 ZetaLux Series
  

Introducing ZetaLux™ - 7 Watt LED Light Bulb

Breaking News! EarthLED ZetaLux now UL Listed and FCC Approved!

The EarthLED ZetaLux has just achieved another milestone for LED technology by becoming the first UL Listed and FCC approved LED light lamp for general household illumination. The UL listing further affirms the advanced safety technologies built into every ZetaLux. In addition, the UL listing now allows the use of the ZetaLux in facilities and buildings where this certification is required. We're proud of this achievement and happy to continue to offer ZetaLux, the light bulb reimagined!

The UL Listed ZetaLux

The New State-Of-The-Art

Presenting ZetaLux, a new LED light bulb that redefines value oriented performance. ZetaLux uses only 7 watts of electricity meaning it will cost only $2.00 to run 8 Hours per Day for an entire year. ZetaLux uses the latest in LED light engine technology from CREE to create light that is equivalent to that of a 50-60 watt incandescent. How is this possible?

Much like our best selling EvoLux, ZetaLux wastes very little light achieving over 95% luminary efficiency. In short, this means when installed in a typical lamp or down light, the ZetaLux doesn't casts all of its light towards the lamp shade or the object beneath it. No light is directed below the bulb where it is not used. In fact, near the center of its beam the ZetaLux even outperforms traditional 60 watt incandescents.

ZetaLux Luminary Efficiency in Action

Additionally, this latest generation light engine features a very high CRI or Color Rendering Index. CRI is a a good way to determine the quality of light and its faithfulness to render colors correctly, ZetaLux features a a CRI of 75 for cool white and 80 for Warm White making them some of the highest in the industry.

Smart Engineering, it's Everywhere.

Ever since we introduced high power LED lighting to consumers and businesses we've seen products enter the market that are cheaply made at best and dangerous at worst. When developing the ZetaLux we concentrated on making a product that not only will perform for a decade or longer but will do so safely in your home or business.

Every single component of the ZetaLux was considered during its development. Its large aluminum heat sink is the perfect shape for optimal heat dissipation allowing the ZetaLux to remain warm to the touch even after running for days. The plastic base that houses the ZetaLux control circuitry is made of flame retardant plastic while the globe that covers the LED emitter is virtually unbreakable. The ZetaLux contains no hazardous substances and is fully RoHS compliant.

We tested the ZetaLux in extreme conditions: in frigid -50 degree frost all the way up to scorching 180 degree heat. We even used the ZetaLux in a steamy room with 95% humidity. The results were clear, even under extreme stress the ZetaLux performs. Try that with your CFL or incandescent bulb or for that matter, any other manufacturers LED light bulb!

Simply Greener than CFLs.

Like all our products, the ZetaLux is simply in another league when it comes to safety and environmental friendliness. While governments around the world along with consumers wake up to the dangers of CFLs, LEDs now offer a true alternative. It's not just marketing either, just one CFL improperly disposed can cause lasting damage to the environment affecting drinking water and food sources we all use.

Mercury is only half of the problem with CFLs. If you've ever used one, you know their light is less than ideal. Flickering, drab color, long start up times in cold weather, these are just some of the many reasons consumers are quickly finding CFLs are not a long term solution. 

Unmatched Performance, Incomparable Value.

ZetaLux offers the best price/performance ratio in the industry.  Very simply you will not find another LED lighting product that offers the same combination of performance and value as the ZetaLux. Here is a small example of how much you could save by switching just one incandescent to a ZetaLux:

Costs Over 10 Years All figures calculated at 8 Hours Per Day and $.10 per kWH			ZetaLux Pays for itself in a little over 2 years at $.10 per kWH
	ZetaLux	Incandescent
Initial Cost	$49.99	$1.00
Electricity	$20.00	$175.2
Replacement	$0.00 (0 Bulbs)	$30 (30 Bulbs)
Total Cost	$69.99	$206.2

As you can see, ZetaLux Saves you over $13 per light fixture per year and pays for itself in just a little over 2 years! That's just by replacing one light and that doesn't even count other important considerations such as cooling costs and costs associated with purchasing the over 30 incandescent light bulbs needed over that 10 year period. Just think of how large your savings would be by replacing all of your lighting with high efficiency EarthLED LED light bulbs

Making the Switch to LED is Easy.

Making the switch to LED is now easier than ever thanks to the ZetaLux. In addition to its great level of value, we offer a comprehensive 2 year warranty and total support for your lighting project. If after 30 days you're not completely satisfied, simply return your ZetaLux, all you pay are shipping costs.

Sharp is introducing a new range of solar-powered LED streetlights. These self-contained lights charge during the day, and switch
 on automatically when darkness falls. They can operate for 10 years straight without maintenance. They make use of new,
 high-intensity LED spotlights, which are ideal for public parks. The LEDs illuminate with a directed light and don’t send light into
 the sky (thus causing light pollution). The streetlights also feature a Seismic Motion Sensor that detects the occurrence of a major
 earthquake. If an earthquake is detected, the light turns on at full brightness during the night, to assist during possible power interruptions.

Windspire: Propeller-Free Household Turbine Gets Approval

By Cephoe: on Renewable Power

We just featured the largest wind turbine in the world, now here’s something at the opposite end of the spectrum: a household wind turbine. In the last few years, we’ve seen a lot of mini-wind turbines that haven’t turned out to be very useful. But the Windspire turbine from Mariah Power sounds interesting. The Windspire has a propeller-free vertical-axis design, and is expected to produce about 1800 kilowatt hours per year in 11 mph average wind conditions. That amount of wind power is roughly 25% of a typical household’s energy (or much more if you are particularly energy efficient).

The Windspire is 30 feet tall with a two foot radius, sized below typical residential zoning restrictions. Guidelines for installation sites are generally half an acre of land and relatively windy locations. The Winspire has just passed the ETL safety certification, which means it’s ready to go to market. It is expected to be released this spring, and priced at $3,995.

Windspire features a fully integrated, plug ‘n produce design, including a high efficiency generator, integrated inverter, and wireless performance monitor. The integrated design allows for simple installation (estimated to cost around $1,000). It incorporates a slow speed giromill rotor for virtually silent operation and improved safety and durability. It connects to the household power supply, offsetting electricity use and at times running the electricity meter backwards.

You can also get this wind turbine painted any color you like, to match the surroundings, to stand out as piece of functional art.

Solar Powered Air Conditioner Released

August 11th, 2008 · 8 Comments

A company called GreenCore Air has released an air conditioner
than can be powered by a single 170 watt solar panel. The GreenCore
air conditioning unit can heat and cool a 600 square foot room. It
runs on DC power, so there is no need to put an AC inverter
between the solar panel and the air conditioner. This eliminates the
power losses associated with converting AC to DC. Read more →

Mini-Z LED Desk Lamp

By Kate

Here's a hard working, super-adjustable desk lamp with a tiny footprint. The Mini-Z LED Desk Lamp is about as wide as your finger--and comes with a desktop clamp if the base is even taking up too much space. The light is provided by 40 LEDs, and although it's not quite as sophisticated as a Leaf Lamp by Herman Miller ($500), it's far less costly: it retails for $80 over on Think Geek.

Airswitch 1 Lamp

From the company that brought you the Lava Lamp in the 1960s, the Airswitch® 1 (2004) operates without the user ever touching the lamp. Like its name says, the “switch” is in the air. Simply move your hand over the top of the flask to turn it on and off. Raise and lower your hand to adjust the light from very dim to bright enough for reading. These instructions, should you forget them, appear as an iconographic display on the flask (printed on only one side, giving you the option of keeping this information visible or turned from view). Bulb (included): E17/110V/40W pearlescent candle.
 Make it Solar Stupid
------------------------------------------------------         =================================================================================================

By Mahesh Basantani: on Wind Power

Ocean waves are already being used as a source of renewable energy, but could differences in
water temperatures in the sea be our next source of green power? A decade old idea to generate
renewable electricity for the globe with offshore, floating ‘Energy Islands’ could soon become a reality.
The concept - creating artificial islands to collect wind, wave and solar power in the tropics - is based
on the work of Jacques-Arsène d’Arsonval, a 19th-century French physicist, who envisioned the idea
 of using the sea as a giant solar-energy collector.

  ================================================================================================
http://www.sunnytec.com.tw/english/products/p10.asp

The Origin of Batteryless Remote Control：

1.Application of Outer Space Environment：
The idea starts from the need of providing energy to low electricity system in space station and shuttle. The product is also environmental friendly (no battery) and self-independent (ex. solar board is depended by the direction of sunlight).

2.Piezoelectric material is the best choice for such severe demand.

Principle：

1.The PZT plate is pressed to form a deformation and displacement. When the pressing force
 is removed, the rebound of the PZT plate instantaneously transforms its deformation to
 electrical energy.

2.Within 0.05 seconds, several hundred volt of pulse is created. The electricity is enough to
 generate several packets (including Transmitter ID code and function code) and a radio
frequency signal to the Receiver.

Illustration for an Application：    
                 

1.For a lamp or other appliances, we can use a “Plug-In” or “Wire-In” Receiver to control the On/Off.

Special Features：

1.  Patents:
         The technology of Piezo-electrical Membrane and Unique Transmitter ID Code (Protocol)
are protected by international patent. The Protocol contains over 200 million of unique ID codes.
2.  Eco-Friendly Green Product:
         The lifetime is more than 10 years, and the product requires no batteries (the chemical
contents in batteries are hazardous to our mother earth).
3.  Energy Saving Design:
         Using the “Learn” feature of the Receiver, the light fixtures are ON only when it is necessary.
 The U.S. Federal government is promoting this design by the project called U.S. EERE Project
4.  Create the Flexibility of Interior Design:
         No wires, no batteries, no demolition, no patching, no re-painting and no hassle. Efficiently
 reduce construction costs and increase the flexibility of interior design.

Environmentally and Technologically Advanced Crappers

By Gavin D.J. Harper

Hot on the heels of 'Pee standing up for the Earth' come these bogtastic urinals for Europe.
One pint of water per flush might be something to write home about on your side of the pond,
but here in Europe, we've already seen our fair share of water-less urinals.

It turns out that the two main problems with not having water run around your loo after each
 pee are odor and blockage. Odor isn't as much of a problem as you would think, as specially
designed traps can pretty much eliminate smells escaping. The other problem is blockage -
solids and salts accumulate in the traps of waterless urinals - however, two litres of hot water
a week poured down them is enough to ensure they stay clear.

Furthermore, the people at IFO have solutions for times when you just have to sit down.
Some of their loos will clear the bowl using as little as two litres of water for less serious
matters - whilst effectively clearing the bowl using as little as four litres - a shade over a
U.S. Gallon.

Furthermore, taking water out of the equation altogether - with a solution that may seem a
 little extreme to the average U.S. consumer - but one which might appeal to EcoGeeks is the
'composting toilet' - now being carried at Home Depots - a compost toilet biologically digests waste
 to produce harmless compost as a waste product. If the balance of biological functions in a
composting toilet is maintained at the correct levels then it should emit no odor at all!

GUERILLA GARDENING: Strategies for Greening the Hood

By Abigail Doan: On Gardening

Regardless of whether you are an urban, suburban, or rural dweller, there is inevitably a patch
of neglected turf in your neighborhood that might need a bit of TLC and greening. If you see
hidden gardening potential between sidewalk cracks when others see decay and abandon,
well then, you might be a budding guerrilla gardener and not even know it! The guerrila gardening
phenomenon is currently sweeping the globe as folks are finding innovative ways to come together
 for the optimization of neglected land and paved surface area. It’s a turf war for some, or a poetic
gesture for others, but either way, citizens are rolling up there sleeves to create gardens in the
most unlikely spaces and places.

Build Marvelous Hanging Gardens in your own backyard!

By Attitude on Environment

If the Aztecs and the Incas could do it, then surely so can you in this time and age. While they
might not be on a scale as grand and spectacular as the Hanging Gardens of Babylon, they still
 might be good enough next time you bring your girlfriend home. If that is not a reason enough
for you to get started, then I don'tt know what is. I actually do, but let's not talk about it here.

Here is a wonderful way to build your own hanging garden in your very own backyard.
The grander you want it to be, the more effort that has to go in. But when you are done
with it, you will be more than happy with the outcome. To top it all off, now you can build
it using the power of mighty Apollo or in a more modern language- the sun. Here is a simple
 and efficient way to build your own Hydroponic re-circulating solar powered system. I still
 like to call it "gardens in the air-powered by the sun".

The method of building is very easy. All you need is a solar panel to power your under
water motor, lots of containers to put your plants in and of course some wooden or
 concrete structure. I suggest you use earth pots rather than plastic ones as shown
in the video. You obviously can improvise both with the shape and structure. So delve
 in and discover the art. What more, we have a video this time and not just a set of
photographs and lots of paragraphs to show you how to do it.

Save Money and Energy with an Energy Monitor

at 12:04 PM Posted by vergelimbo

Save money on rising
energy bills, while slashing your carbon footprint at the same time, with an energy
 monitoring device. A good example is The Energy Detective (TED), which starts at $139.

The Energy Detective is a small display that indicates household electrical usage in real
 time and projects your monthly bill — all without using batteries. Research has found
 that real-time energy feedback leads consumers to reduce their electricity consumption.
 According to the company you'll save 15 - 20% on each bill, which would amount to
 hundreds of dollars a year.

It's really quite simple: If you can measure it, you can manage it. You can make small
adjustments through the day and see how the savings add up. For example, you may
 decide you don't really need to run that space heater, or be reminded to turn off lights
 and appliances. You can even interface the TED with your computer, so you can do
advanced logging and analysis of your home's energy data.
