July 25, 2007 - PureSpectrum, Inc. set to test low wattage CFL prototype
July 25th, 2007SAVANNAH, GA – PureSpectrum, Inc. (Pink Sheets: PSPM) is preparing to test an 11.8-watt Compact Fluorescent Lamp (CFL) prototype bulb that has been engineered to produce the equivalent light output of a 60-watt incandescent bulb. PureSpectrum owns the rights to multiple patents related to a technology to improve the electronic ballasts which power fluorescent lighting. The company hopes to license the technology both in the
The U.S. Department of Energy’s Energy Star program recommends that consumers replace 60-watt incandescent bulbs with a 13-watt CFL bulb which can match the 60-watt bulb’s light output of 800 lumens. But manufacturers in countries which are on the threshold of exponentially expanding their electrical grids are searching for even more energy conservation solutions which will tax their energy infrastructure as little as possible. “We recognize that in order to license PureSpectrum Technology on a global level, we need to meet the requirements of manufacturers outside of the
The recently developed PureSpectrum prototype, using PureSpectrum’s modified half-bridge ballast technology, is compatible with variable voltage configurations commonly found outside of the
“Based on the dialogue we have had with international manufacturers, we feel like our engineers have proven that the technology is robust enough and flexible enough to accommodate a diverse array of conditions,” said PureSpectrum president and CEO Lee Vanatta. “We know that successful testing will accelerate our dialogue with these manufacturers and lead to a licensing partnership in the short term and an entrance into several other international markets.” ABOUT PURESPECTRUM PureSpectrum (Pink Sheets: PSPM) is a publicly traded technology company founded and headquartered in
