Das Unternehmen entwickelt unter anderem intelligente Ladesysteme, die neuartige Technologie mit herausragendem Design kombinieren.

Mit dem Autel MaxiCharger AC hat das Unternehmen nun ein hochmodernes, vielseitiges AC-Ladegerät für Elektroautos auf den Markt gebracht. Als MaxiCharger AC-Wallbox lässt es sich innen wie außen montieren und deckt somit jedes denkbare Ladeszenario ab – von Wohnbereich und Garage über den Arbeitsplatz bis hin zu gewerblichen Parkplätzen und Autowerkstätten.

Mit der MaxiCharger AC-Wallbox lassen sich Elektroautos schnell und sicher aufladen. Die Weltneuheit von Autel ist für Fahrzeuge mit dem Ladestecker Typ 2 geeignet, somit deckt sie die wichtigsten Ladestandards ab und ist mit praktisch allen aktuellen Elektroautos kompatibel. Es ist erhältlich in den drei Leistungsstufen 7 kW, 11 kW und 22 kW.

Zu den Vorteilen des MaxiCharger zählt unter anderem ein hoher Sicherheitsstandard: Eine dreifache Schutztechnologie mit Echtzeit-Überwachung gewährleistet das sichere Aufladen, vermeidet ein Überladen der Batterie und schützt diese zuverlässig vor Schäden. Das aktive Lastmanagement und der dynamische Lastausgleich der Wallbox sorgen außerdem dafür, dass mehrere Autos gleichzeitig laden können – ohne schädliche Leistungsspitzen.

Dank IP65-Schutzklasse ist der MaxiCharger AC jederzeit sicher vor Staub, Öl und Wasser geschützt und meistert problemlos den Außenbetrieb. Sein branchenführender AI-Algorithmus und eine intelligente Batterie-Diagnose-Technologie verlängern die Akkulebensdauer um bis zu 20 Prozent.

Die MaxiCharger AC-Wallbox zählt als Investition zur Steigerung der Energieeffizienz und erfüllt die Kriterien für eine KfW-Förderung. Die KfW (Kreditanstalt für Wiederaufbau) ist eine der führenden Förderbanken der Welt, die nachhaltige Modernisierungsprojekte mit zins­günstigen Krediten oder Zuschüssen unterstützt.

Ein besonderes Merkmal des MaxiCharger AC ist auch der hohe Komfort: Das Gerät lässt sich innerhalb von nur 8 Minuten leicht installieren. Zum Leistungsumfang der Firmware gehören dabei auch die Fernaktualisierung sowie eine Fehlerbehebung. Mit der zugehörigen Autel Charge App überwachen Kunden auch außerhalb der Sichtweite des MaxiCharger AC ganz bequem das Laden, checken den Zustand des Akkus und verwalten sogar mehrere Ladegeräte gleichzeitig.

Mit seinem fortschrittlichen und modernen Design überzeugt der MaxiCharger AC übrigens auch rein optisch. Aus diesem Grund wurde er mit dem reddot Design Award 2022 ausgezeichnet.

Die Produktionskapazität für die MaxiCharger AC-Wallbox beträgt derzeit bis zu 1.200.000 Einheiten pro Jahr und kann noch weiter gesteigert werden. Selbstverständlich ist das fortschrittliche und intelligente Gerät auch in Deutschland verfügbar: mit MediaMarkt und Saturn sogar bei zwei der wichtigsten Online und Einzelhandelspartner für Elektronik im deutschen Markt.

Long-range wireless power leader Wi-Charge financially backed by the European Innovation Council Fund

TEL AVIV, 18-Oct-2021 — /EPR ELECTRONICS NEWS/ — Wi-Charge, the leader in long-range wireless power, today announced that it has been awarded €13.4 M EUROS by the European Commission’s European Innovation Council (EIC), an arm of the world’s largest multinational innovation programme. The funding is being provided to help Wi-Charge more rapidly develop and commercialize its disruptive “over-the-air” wireless power technology offerings.

According to Wi-Charge’s CEO, Victor Vaisleib, “By financing Wi-Charge, the EIC is fueling Europe’s global competitiveness and helping to make our breakthrough wireless power solutions accessible to as many businesses and homes around the world as possible in the shortest amount of time.”

For generations dating back to Nikola Tesla, technologists have dreamed of making wireless power available through the air, with no need for plugs or charging pads. In recent years, Wi-Charge began making this dream a reality through the development of an infrared technology that beams electricity “over-the-air” to devices over 30 feet away. The company then productised its wireless power offerings and began selling them to businesses around the world. It also quickly established 82 patents in support of its breakthrough.

The EIC fund was created to identify, develop and scale breakthrough technologies and game changing innovations. The programme’s first ever investments were highly anticipated and competitive. This year, of the thousands of companies that competed for the first EIC awards, Wi-Charge was one of the select few to receive financing and the only recipient in the wireless power provider category.

“This investment in Wi-Charge is a wonderful testament to Europe’s innovation-edge and a welcome validation of our business vision and technology,” said Wi-Charge founder and Chief Business Officer Ori Mor. “As the Fourth Industrial Revolution matures, wireless power will dominate —  untethering the world from wires and toxic batteries. Its benefits will also go much further, allowing fundamental transformations in how people live and work, similar to the advent of wi-fi and mobile technologies.”

On average, Wi-Charge delivers 30 times the power of other solution providers, at ten times the range and with much less waste — making it the most efficient, greenest solution available today. Year after year, the company has received honors and awards from global organizations like the Consumer Electronics Show and the Edison Awards.

“As governments and businesses around the world continue to lean into wireless power,” said Vaisleib “the EIC’s investment in Wi-Charge is helping make the dream of a better, wireless world a reality.”

There are currently many wireless power business use cases across the key market sectors Wi-Charge serves, including advanced deployments in large sectors like retail and CPG. These real-world scenarios are fueling a wireless power market that Allied Market Research estimates will reach €34.46 billion EUROS by 2027.

Lamp Post Now Stock Full In-Line Manrose Extractor Fan Range

Lamp Post Electrical supply all electrical equipment for the power circuits of the house and office and the Internet has allowed them to build a great business, which supplies the market at prices which are well below those of the standard retail outlets. Their typical website is both informative and descriptive so that a good idea of the product can be quickly gained. Any further information can be gained by e-mail or phone. The delivery service is what the customer wants it to be, but Lamp Post Electrical prides themselves on getting the goods quickly and safely to the customer.

The extraction fan business has become more and more complex over the years as the pollution rules and regulations have become stronger and this will change still further in the next few years as environmental and social conditions become stricter. The rules on extraction fans for the bathroom and washroom areas have always been strict because of the danger of water and electricity mixing and passing electrical currents to earth. The introduction of the 17th edition RCD controlled circuits has helped matters, but most installations still use off site extractor pumps to get rid of the unwanted steam and smells.

Lamp Post Electrical have supplied the Manrose CFD200T in line extractor fan for some time and it is a very reliable piece of equipment. The pump works on a typical 4 inch diameter extraction tube that connects to the waste exit of the bathroom to the extraction fan itself. The power of the extractor fan is such that it extracts some 85 cubic metres per hour very quietly and continuously. The fan is fitted in lime and into the line and extraction is not a problem as it will deal with all the typical problems that bathroom extractor fans may have during their normal operation. It should clear away all steam developed by the shower or the bath and leave the room dry, it will also remove obnoxious smells.

Lamp Post Electrical supply all the fittings and fixtures for the operation and the only real problem is where to fix the extractor fan into its final position as this obviously needs to be outside the bathroom. It can be fitted below the floor or above the ceiling but there will be a need for a suitably sized space and also the requirements in the case of an emergency so that future access may be possible to repair or replace easily. All that then remains is a suitable access for the extracted gases to be passed outside of the building through a tube and grill. If there are no suitable access routes then there are some extractor fans which can work in the bathroom or wash room environment without the need for the ultimate protection but these must be mounted so that they cannot be reached when standing in the bath or shower.

Manrose Centrifugal Extractor Fans Provide A Lamp Post Electrical Supplies Stalwart

Manrose are a company with a good history record in supplying everyday fans for the business and household market place and Lamp Post Electrical Supplies are delighted to keep stocking one of the stalwarts of the extraction fan markets in order to supply this ever changing market place. The Manrose centrifugal fan range has almost become a standard as it is able to deal with waste gases and extraction smells produced in the appropriate places. The centrifugal fan is the major part of this design with a central motor and controller which is built with fans with totally sealed bearing sets which require zero maintenance and bearing supports which last a long time. The centrifugal fan is basically a workhorse of the commercial or household market providing a strong fan which will operate continuously and effectively over many years. The areas where they come into their own are the commercial kitchen where vast quantities of waste gases need to be extracted (although there are smaller areas where they are equally useful).

Manrose Extractor Fans are recommended by Lamp Post Electrical Supplies as it is designed to aid and work effectively in pushing waste gases over long distances without a severe loss of pressure and therefore a loss of effective waste gas removal. They are very good at overcoming the pressure restrictions that have by nature been built into bends and grilles that may be inserted over the trunking range without serious reduction in pressure. This is particularly useful in some of the most modern commercial kitchens where the waste gas source is easy to pinpoint but the gases have then to be moved over long distances to extract then from the room. The reasons they have to be moved so far can be many but the usual reasons are that care must be taken not to remove the kitchen smells and then pump them straight outside the room where people are working or where they can percolate into a neighbouring house and remove the problem from one place to a neighbouring area. A failure in this region can bring problems resulting arguments with neighbours and potential guests or even prosecution by the local government officials. Any good workhorse requires a good working life and the Manrose pump has a normal working life of around 40,000 hours, obviously for Lamp Post Electrical Supplies replacement of kitchen extractor fans will not occur overnight but there is an ever increasing market place.

The centrifugal fan is a system that works well from small fans to the very large fans and they are extremely quiet in operation with virtually no vibration problems because of the centrally balanced motor. The smaller fans are aimed at the smaller markets and are aimed at bathrooms and toilets as well as small household kitchens where waste gas extraction is required.

Lamp Post Electrical Supplies – http://www.lamppostelectrical.co.uk – are proud to stock a full range of Manrose fans which can be delivered swiftly and effectively to repair breakdowns or deal with pressing problems and will be pleased to offer advice as and when required.

Brushed Stainless Steel Switches Route For Electrical Counter

Electrical Counter, the retailer of electrical goods for the power installation business has developed a very strong product range which is now taking advantage of a full list of the latest in materials and designs for all the major electrical furniture. At the present moment Electrical Counter has some excellent ranges of switches and sockets for the retail and trade counters and the full range can generally be bought off the shelf on the Internet with a next day or 2/3 day delivery cycle dependent on what is required or requested. Any queries are just a call away. The market is ever changing and with the changing design the wheel has almost turned full circle and there is an exceptional line of brushed stainless steel switches and sockets that have been developed. Originally metal switches were quite a disaster and many electrical shocks were received by the users, some of them very serious. The problem with the replacement plastic switches and sockets is that these days they appear a little mundane and can get discoloured.

Time has changed the beast and the latest stainless switches are attractive and very safe, the insulation and switch design has now totally changed and these are great working switches, which have fully accepted modern technology and are able to meet all the most stringent regulations. Electrical Counter is pleased to be able to supply a range of these switches in a very good looking brushed stainless steel finish. Brushed stainless steel is an excellent material, which generally allows a very smooth finished product to be produced usually in a slim line form. The finish of smooth stainless steel sometimes accepts fingerprints and can easily look scruffy when it is handled but brushed stainless steel is an excellent material and handles much better. It does, of course, need cleaning but it does look very good in situ and when fitted throughout the building with matching sockets the result is stunning. The metal switches also have allowed the development of the screwless switch and socket. This range uses a push in, pull out fixing which uses no screws and keeps a very clean face across the whole of the switch or socket. This line is likely to be very popular in the near future.

Electrical Counter is delighted with these ranges and at present is able to offer most of the range at a very much reduced price than the previous listed prices. The price reduction is at least 50% on the lower priced items and can be up to 75% on the higher cost items. This saving gives an excellent opportunity to change the full lighting and socket system of a household for about 30 to 35% of the list price which is excellent value and offers a rare opportunity to make such a change. Electrical Counter have worked very hard to develop this business and they are able to offer the great names and latest designs of the electrical manufacturers at very reasonable prices so that they are able to meet the demands of users and installers alike.

The Electrical Counter stock a vast range of electrical wholesale products in the UK including top quality Nexus sockets such as Nexus metal sockets and Nexus plug sockets ranges.

The Ultimate On Wall Cabling Solutions

Do you hate all of the cables that having computer equipment in your office unfortunately entails? Maybe you have moved in to an office and never really got around to tidying everything up and all of your cables are still in a mess several months later.

If any of the above applies to you then maybe it is time that you spoke to the Lamp Post Electrical Supplies Company about your cable management. They are an electrical wholesaler with over 16 years experience in this area, so if you are fed up of cables being all over the floor, or rammed in behind desks then maybe you should look at what cable solutions are available to help sort out the mess you are in.

Installing Dado Trunking is one of the easiest ways to go about tidying up your power, telephone and computer cables. Modern Dado Trunking systems cater for all three. Lamp Post Electrical Supplies have experts in this field who will be able to help you establish not just how much Dado Trunking you need but also how many outlet boxes, corner pieces and connecting pieces you will need to install it correctly.

Dado Trunking is also the ideal solution should you have a room that you wish to use as an office that has solid walls, which would otherwise make the addition of power sockets and computer cabling very expensive if the walls need channelling and replastering. Lamp Post Electrical supply the tried and trusted ‘Starline’ Dado Trunking, which can be easily surface mounted to any such solid wall, and can be used to provide power, phone and PC connections wherever you need them to be. The Dado Trunking is plastic and the outlet sockets can thus be easily inserted into it wherever you need them to be. It is the cheapest solution for cabling problems if you have solid walls.

Dado trunking really does make for a safer working environment, enabling you to immediately shut the power down in the event of a problem. No more fumbling under a desk frantically trying to find which plug to pull out to cut the power to the shredder off as an example.

Lastly just remember that badly managed cables are the source of nothing but problems with it being a nightmare to find out which power cable leads to which PC and which telephone socket connects to which phone. So speak to Lamp Post Electrical Suppliestrunking specialists today to see how their innovative Dado Trunking solutions can help you sort out your cabling problems.

Safety Improvements Required For Home Electrics

It is interesting to note that in a University electrical laboratory students are limited to dealing with 50v and 3A maximum, yet we are allowed free to use 240v and 13A with virtually no restrictions at home.

So one would question why all new dwellings have to have modern consumer units fitted by law, and older houses do not? Time for a change maybe?

Well you do not have to wait for the law to change as getting your old fuse box changed for a consumer unit is a very straight forwards job for a competent electrician, and should take them less than a day to fit.

If you have just bought an older property then changing an old fuse box over should be your first priority, particularly if you are going to be doing a lot of refurbishment, which may put a higher than normal load on the electrical system.

Firstly there is the safety aspect with regards to electrocution, a modern consumer unit features Residual Current Devices (RCD’s) that sense any current imbalance between the positive and neutral conductors, such as you drilling through the live cable in a wall. The beauty of them is that they sense this imbalance in milliseconds, and cut out the power before it has had chance to electrocute you. This alone for me is a good enough reason for anyone to replace their fuse box as soon as possible.

Secondly unlike a fuse box, the modern units have mini-circuit breakers that do not blow out like a fuse but just trip out, and unlike a fuse they can be instantly re-switched on by flicking the breaker back up. This means goodbye to trying to find the right grade fuse wire in the dark, and no more running out of the right grade of fuse wire full stop.

They can also be fitted with Residual Current Circuit Breakers with Overload protection (RCBO’s), which also sense current overload. Whilst the fitment of RCD’s in new boxes is mandatory, the next logical progression would be for RCBO’s to also be made mandatory to fit.

Also the safety benefits in replacing an older fuse box with a new consumer unit far outweigh the cost of fitting, particularly with new eight way units starting from as low as £35 plus the cost of the RCD’s and Mini-Breakers.

By fitting a new consumer unit you greatly de-risk being electrocuted or having an electrical fire, so do it today before it is too late.
