Lighting the way with solar in Queensland

The Queensland Department of Transport and Main Roads has certified the Carmanah EG series outdoor solar lighting system for roadway lighting across the state, and has selected the authorised Carmanah distributor for Australia, Orion Solar, as supplier.The selection follows the Queensland Government's installation of ten Carmanah EG320 solar LED outdoor lighting systems in early 2012. The EG series, launched by Carmanah in 2011, was designed to address a growing need for high performance and reliable off-grid lighting, Carmanah says.
"The EG series eliminates the need to trench cable, a required cost of alternating current-powered lighting, making the lights an ideal solution for roadways and areas where infrastructure is unavailable or costly to access," Carmanah says. "With the use of LED luminaires, the maintenance costs for a solar-powered solution are lower than traditional lighting, and the energy costs are zero."Configured specifically for the locations in which they are deployed, EG series systems use optimal solar insolation values for an installed location, resulting in smaller systems and reduced product costs.Better still, that update has a video showing just how to reverse engineer an apple iphone battery case and make your personal backup battery power.Essentially, Minty Boost could supply the 500 milliamps that older versions from the iPhone necessary to charge, however the 3GS appeared to want more: a complete amp of juice, a lot more than two AA batteries could provide.Other states are set to follow Queensland's example of going solar; VicRoads is currently trialling the EG series for use on Victorian roads.Car chargers have been popularly in use since several years and have continued to be one of the best options for charging iPhones when on the move. Most often,portable battery charger are a component of the package which you receive with your cellular phone and most users of iPhone do not even have the need to buy a standard iPhone car charger.Carmanah and Orion have responded to an increased demand for solar-powered public lighting with illumination levels that will meet Australian standards, and Orion is now helping many local councils to meet public area lighting needs where grid connection is expensive or difficult to provide.
Orion Solar General Manager Richard Holliday says "Australia presents many challenges when considering outdoor lighting, including the remoteness of service locations, unreliable grid power and a reliance on generator equipment."At the same time, equipment must be able to withstand the wide range of temperature and environmental extremes. The market is looking for a light that works unabated through any extreme and functions reliably for years. The EG series is the technology that answers these challenges." Why come home to a dark house? Improve security and control power use by wiring exterior or interior lights through a timer such as the Honeywell Econo Programmable Solar Timer Switch.The unit can turn lights on at dusk and off at sunrise – or as needed. Honeywell's timer has options for 7 different programs per week. It works with incandescent and halogen lighting (40 watt minimum). The LCD screen shows time, day and load status. Controls are flush with the wall plate. Lights can also be controlled manually.Finding Eyeglasses frame is actually very easy. Just go to the local outlet and you will find some! They are also available at your local shopping center, even airports sell them. Sunglasses are sold online. They are easy to find if you use a search engine. When you buy sunglasses, are you aware of their quality?Look into the video below, or more info/instructions go right to the origin. As cool because the iphone is, still it needs leather ipad case and it has to charge just like a normal phone. Which means plugging it in a computer or power outlet, filled with the tangled wires and 30-pin connection. Programming is protected during a power outage. The unit has a built-in rechargeable battery.Affordability is something you need to consider when looking at Handmade glasses for your eyes. Cheap sunglasses are vastly different from expensive sunglasses, yet to the regular person, they can look virtually identical. UV protection, which is usually added to most sunglasses, may not be adequate in the cheap varieties.
