DEERFIELD BEACH, FL, September 04, 2010
/24-7PressRelease/ -- South Florida based Capstone Industries announced today Eco-i-Lites are available In Hardware Stores, Specialty Retailers and Warehouse Clubs throughout the East Coast in preparation for Hurricane Earl as it makes its way towards the US.
The Eco-i-Lites are multi-functional power failure lighting devices that turn on when the power goes out, making it easy to navigate in the darkness during a power failure. Once on, the light will last for over seven hours. It also has a built-in flasher feature that saved a life last year during a North Eastern Storm.
"Our product is well positioned in multiple channels along the East Coast, giving potential storm victims a lighting device they can depend on when power fails. We are also communicating with our retailer partners to ensure they have the inventory necessary to fulfill the demand for this storm as well as future storms. We receive many calls, e-mails, and letters on a daily basis from consumers such as the one below", Reid Goldstein said.
"Power outage 6:00 a.m.-7:45 a.m. at home 3 weeks ago - Severe thunderstorms and lightning rolled through E. of Cleveland. The Eco-i-Lite that I bought 4 days before the storm automatically turned on when the power went off. Can't tell you how good it is to know where they are and to have lights available when the power goes off and it's dark. Didn't' have to search for flashlights or candles in the dark. Used during breakfast and kids carried them around to bedrooms and bathrooms to get ready for school. I held one in my left hand while shaving with my right hand. LED light is much brighter than candles or a regular flashlight, that I couldn't even find. Power came back on at 7:45 a.m. and I put them back in the base. I know where they will be next time they are needed. I have also been using the Eco-i-lite handheld flashlight portion to find items in closets, cupboards, garage and even locate the cats at night. Always charged and ready. Light is always available. Eco Friendly, self contained lithium-ion battery is a big plus.....".
Most people think of "storm prep" as getting ready for hurricane season. For the USA, "storm prep" is actually two major periods:
Spring/Summer Storm Season (floods, hail storms, hurricanes, thunderstorms
and tornados)
Winter Storm Season (blizzards, extreme cold weather, ice storms, wind
storms)
Along with:
Natural disasters such as earthquakes and tsunamis that also cause power
outages
Coupled with blackouts and brownouts, the complete country is affected all year
long
Americans live in the most severe weather-prone country on Earth:
Each year, Americans cope with an average of 10,000 thunderstorms, 5,000
floods, 1,000 tornados and an average of 2 land-falling, deadly
hurricanes.
Impacted by intense summer heat, high winds and other deadly weather impacts.
Approximately 90% of all presidentially declared disasters are weather
related, leading to around 500 deaths per year and nearly $14 billion dollars in
damage.
Each Eco-i-Lite brings together safety, design and sustainability while including the following features:
Automatically turns on when the power goes out
LED handheld light comes out of the charging base effortlessly
LED nightlight with auto sensor turns on automatically when the room or space is dark or can be left on at all times
Environmentally friendly rechargeable Lithium Ion battery and LED bulbs, which require no replacement
Cutting edge Induction Charging base is safe and reliable
Rotating plug fits all AC wall units
Water resistant
Convenient for every room in the house
