20 Watt Silver Frame Mono-crystalline Solar Panel and battery Charger

This is a 20 Watt Mono-crystalline Solar Panel and 12V Charger. You could be eligible for up to $2000 of energy rebate in California and some states for converting your home power to solar. Please check with your local utility company. The solar panel is waterproof. The working voltage for charging is 17.2V. If you need to use it to charge a car battery, you may need a charge controller to prevent the battery from overcharging. Connections included: alligator battery clamps. There are three types of Solar Cells on the market. All our Solar chargers are using the best - Mono-Crystalline Solar Cells. Amorphous or Dual Junction Solar Glass are the cheapest but are only 7% energy efficient and have 5 years of service life. They are big and heavy. Poly-Crystalline have 25 plus years of service life under direct sunlight and are 13% efficient. Mono-Crystalline have 25 plus years of service life and are up to 20% efficient. This is the same type used in solar car racing. This type of solar cells is now in a worldwide shortage because only a few companies can manufacture this solar cell.

Customer Review: 20-watt Solar Panel

This panel appears to work as advertised. The frame is fairly rugged and has six holes drilled for mounting. Ratings stamped on back of unit are: Rated Power: 20W +/- 5%, Isc: 1.24 Amps, Vcc: 21.5V, Im: 1.15 A, Vm: 17.2V, Test Condition: AM1.5, 100mW/cm squared, 25 degrees Centigrade. Inside the junction box on the back, there is a diode in line with one conductor to prevent reverse current flow. The plastic corner protectors are a bit thin, and two of them were cracked when I received the unit, but this was not an important enough feature to me to cause me to return the unit. Would I buy more ? I intend to buy a second unit as soon as one is available.

Solar Powered Wind Turbine Kit

Customer Review: Pretty good overall, but can’t use at work

The kit went together fairly easily. It doesn’t exactly snap together, but with the glue and some rubber bands to hold the pieces tightly in position, everything came out looking well and the blades could freely spin. You’ll have to study the instructions closely to make sense of the pictures.

Under the product description, it states the turbine will also work under desk light, but I could not get the blades to turn until the solar chip was about 6 inches away from a bright incandescent light bulb. We don’t have that kind of desk lighting at work, so I was a little disappointed that I will not be able to use the turbine at my desk as I had intended.

Customer Review: Model Wind Turbine Kit

We have purchased many of these small model wind turbines, many of which have run flawlessly for over 5 years. They are available in kit form that require you to assemble and glue, as with many models. We have had no trouble with our young children putting them together, although the glue is strong and proper ventilation is required. As with many models you need to trim the plastic pieces. Using twist ties helps hold the tower together during assembly. They can also be purchased completely assembled from some suppliers, if you are not a model builder. If they are not in direct sunlight, or if you push the propellers on too tightly they will not spin. The propeller hub will then need to be pulled out slightly to allow for free movement. They are great for model train setups and are a great introduction to wind and solar energy. Don’t expect them to power your house; they are just models.

Totally redesigned electronics

New switch to have three (3) settings - low
medium
high
This will allow for extended periods of use - conservatively, high will be for 5/6 hours, medium 6/8 and low, 8/10

Batteries to be air-cooled with an innovative shift in the mold

Single mold case vice bilateral symmetry and no screws to hold the light together

Light will be water proof vice water resistant

Six (6) LEDs for normal illumination, additional three (3) LEDs for room illumination - this is a result of the funding we received from the Rockefeller Foundation - the switch will allow for click transfer between the systems

Three (3) NiMh batteries - greater efficiency and better for the environment - we no longer use NiCad batteries, totally redesigned attach point allowing for one-hand use

Solay Polish Smooth Salt Lamps (8-12 lbs)

Filed under Shop

Solay Polish smooth salt lamps look like modern lighting crafted from ancient sources. Shapes are very natural, completely smoothed and absolutely unique. It is a great natural air purifier for a modern décor. Scientific studies have shown that salt crystal lamps can increase the negative ion count by up to 300%. Negative ionized air drastically reduces the number of indoor airborne bacteria and dust. Negative ions also benefit asthma patients, people with chronic lung illnesses, and allergy sufferers. As well, they help improve learning, memory, and emotional well being. By creating a balance of ions in the air, they stimulate natural drive and healthy energy. Their colors create a pleasantly calming and warm environment. A Solay Salt Lamp is an excellent source of negative ions and is strikingly beautiful, blending favorably with any environment. Heating the salt crystal with a bulb inside the lamp releases negative ions into the air. The salt crystal lamp improves air quality and your bodys health. For a constant ionizing effect, it is recommended that you light your lamp every day for optimal cleansing results. When a lamp warms, it attracts humidity and the surface of the salt crystal becomes damp. Negative ions build up and then released. Crystal salt lamps bind the excessive positive ions with their negative ions. The ions cleanse the air of harmful electro smog and other toxins. Known as Natures Ionizers, Salt Crystal Lamps eliminate a host of indoor air pollutants. Natural salt has been exposed to massive pressure for millions of years, it has resulted in the formation of this durable crystal salt. The more pressure on the crystal salt, the stronger its composition. This is why salt crystal lamps will not reduce in size, color, shape, or their ionizing effect. They are a long-lasting and stunning addition to any home or office.
