eCycle, Incorporated To Display At 1st Annual Pennsylvania Renewable Energy And Sustainable Living Festival
Temple, PA (ContentDesk) September 11, 2005 -- eCycle announced today that it will be exhibiting at the 1st annual PA Energy Fest located in Kempton, PA on September 23-24, 2005.
The event will focus on renewable energy and sustainable living. Attendees will have a chance to see the new line of eCycle's Auxiliary Power Units (APU) and DC Generators.
The APU was designed to answer market demand for lightweight, high efficiency mobile DC power solutions in compliance with anti-idling laws that are being mandated throughout Canada and the United States.
These units are ideal for vehicles requiring DC power as part of a total generation system.
Depending on the application, the units can be configured to produce up to 6kW at low voltage (14, 28 or 72VDC) with current up to 400A.Recreational vehicles, residential and small business power back-up, including in conjunction with solar, wind and hydropower, will benefit from the eCycle APU.
Importantly, the APU can use renewable fuels such as bio diesel and ethanol.Also on display will be the company's CMG "Silicon Series" brushless motor/generator.
This state of the art, power dense and efficient motor can support a broad range applications, including mobile hydraulics, marine propulsion and generation, robotics, integrated
starter/alternators, diesel, gasoline and gaseous fuel gen-sets, and large centrifugal pumps.The eCycle staff will be present to answer questions about the above products as well as the hybrid motorcycle and its plans to offer a complete chassis kit.About eCycle (www.ecycle.com)Established in 1996 and located in Temple, PA, eCycle produces a line of advanced brushless motors and generators, which have a wide range of applications in commercial, industrial, and consumer markets worldwide, particularly for mobile applications..
The Race is On: Florida Residents Scramble to Secure Backup Generators
Chicago, IL
June 1, 2005 -- While June 1 marks the official start of hurricane season, the race to secure an emergency generator is already underway and rounding the first turn. According to Jon Hoch, founder of Electric Generators Direct.com (http://www.electricgeneratorsdirect.com), an online emergency generator superstore, Florida residents aren't waiting for a tropical depression to develop before purchasing a backup generator. The Romeoville, Ill.-based e-tailer is already experiencing unseasonably strong demand for portable and standby generators. And the season is just starting. Hoch is forecasting a very tight supply of generators this hurricane season.
Why? Manufacturers haven't had enough time to catch up with last year's devastating hurricanes and ice storms. Generator manufacturers were building backorders as late as March and April. Now, with Florida residents buying up generators in record...

Generator Forecast 2006: Generators Could Be In Short Supply This Hurricane Season
Chicago, IL (ContentDesk) March 22, 2006 -- Hurricane season is still two months away, but the mad rush for emergency power generators has already started. ElectricGeneratorsDirect.com (http://www.electricgeneratorsdirect.com), an online generator superstore carrying the leading generator brands, is already experiencing a huge surge in generator sales this Spring. A lot of people are still rebuilding from Katrina, Rita and Wilma, said Jon Hoch, founder of ElectricGeneratorsDirect.com (http://www.electricgeneratorsdirect.com). Theyre not waiting for a tropical depression to form before they start preparing for hurricane season. Generator manufacturers ran out of inventory three years in a row. Last year, it took them until January to replenish inventories from the 2005 Hurricane season.
Do the math, warns Hoch. The manufacturers only...

Portable Generators
Portable generators are used in homes and in places where there is no power or the need for power is minimum. Portable generators are generally smaller and are designed to use for a few. A portable generator of 5KW has enough power to keep lights, refrigerators, computers and televisions running for 7 to 8 hours. Portable generators are normally powered by gasoline, diesel, propane or natural gas. They are the most popular of all portable generators.
Gasoline generators are relatively less expensive but require frequent maintenance and have a shorter life span. Gasoline has a short shelf life and cannot be stored for a long time unless treated with stabilizers.
Diesel generators, on the other hand, are fuel-efficient, consume less fuel per kilowatt of power produced, have longer life and require less maintenance. Diesel can be stored for longer periods of time. However, they are harder to start in cold weather and noisy. Portable generators powered by natural gas...

Gas Generators
A wide variety of fuels are used to power generators. The most common are gasoline, diesel, propane and natural gas. With such a wide array of options, the house owner's choice of fuel and the right type of generator will depend upon factors such as the availability of fuel and the frequency of the use.
Gasoline generators
Gasoline generators are the most familiar type of generator. The fuel is readily available and is relatively inexpensive. The power per weight unit in a gasoline-powered generator is also more than other type of generators.
Gasoline generators are less expensive than generators that use other fuel sources. However their price depends upon the components used. Multi cylinder, water-cooled engines are qualitatively superior and are priced high. These generators, unlike the cheaper, single cylinder, air cooled engines produce less noise and operate with a steady temperature. Some generators come loaded with features like overhead valves,...

Emergency Generators
The disruption of power for substantial lengths of time can occur at any time due to hurricanes, earthquakes, fires, snowfall and other natural calamities. Having emergency backup power in such situations is not only essential for hospitals and commercial establishments but also in homes to run critical appliances like lights, refrigerators, heaters and medical equipment.
There are basically two types of generators that can be used in an emergency: portable and permanent standby generators. The main difference between the two is their output power and price.
In times of emergencies, portable generators provide the most economical way of supplying back up power. Appliances are directly plugged into the generator using the recommended extension cord or alternatively are connected to the home wiring system using a transfer switch.
The generators come with an electric start or a pull start and loaded with many other features including the GFCI receptacles.
