Energizer Private-Labels PowerBright Inverters in Time for the Holidays
Power Bright Technologies announced a new licensing agreement to design and manufacture an exclusive line of Energizer-branded Power Inverters. The new patent pending products are designed specifically to complement Energizer's existing line of portable power solutions and several models are available now for giving as holiday gifts.
The new Energizer branded product line will include a full assortment of power inverters ranging in sizes from 120 Watts to 4000 Watts and are not just for emergencies. With the Energizer® Power Inverters, consumers will be able to run and recharge numerous devices and appliances including cell phones, MP3 players, tablets, laptops, power tools and so much more. Initially, nine Power Inverter products were introduced and Power Bright anticipates adding additional products to the line in Spring 2013.
Included in the line are the World's Smallest Cup Inverters™ 3 with 120 Watt and 180 Watt models that will allow you to power your mobile devices in your car, boat or RV. The new Cup Inverters are ultra-compact and plug into a vehicle's cigarette lighter socket or attach to a car battery and fit securely in a vehicle's cup holders. Each Cup Inverter has four USB Ports with a shared 2.1 Amp capacity to facilitate charging up to four devices at once. In addition, each Cup Inverter has a standard North American AC outlet allowing you to plug directly into your GPS, laptop, MP3 player or cell phone.
Also in the initial products are the Energizer 500, 900, 1100, 1500, 2000, 3000 and 4000 Watt Power Inverter models. All of these Power Inverters, except the 500-Watt model, is equipped with a LCD digital display showing either DC volts or AC Watts. Moreover, these Power Inverters have an overload indicator that automatically shuts down the device when the draw of the appliance exceeds the maximum Watts of the unit, making them very safe to operate.
The 500 through 2000 Watt models come with two standard North America AC outlets (four on the 3000 and 4000 Watt Inverter models) and have two USB ports with a shared 2.1 Amp capacity to facilitate charging up to two devices at once.
Bad weather? Power failure? No problem. The Energizer 3000 and 4000 Watt Power Inverters have four USB Ports with a shared 2.1 Amp capacity. Now you can run multiple high-powered devices such as a refrigerator, microwave, and power tools faster and easier. Like their 120 Watt and 180 Watt Cup Inverter siblings, the Energizer 500 through 4000 Watt models are ultra-compact yet deliver robust charging capabilities for virtually all of your Power Inverter needs.
All Energizer Power Inverter products from Power Bright are MET Certified and conform to UL 458 and CSA 22.2 No. 107.1 Standards for electrical appliances.
"Energizer is excited to add this innovative line of inverters to our existing portfolio of portable power solutions," said Steve Hockridge, General Manager of Specialty Power for Energizer. "In a world where the demand for on-the-go power is rapidly growing, Energizer Power Inverters will offer consumers an assortment of backup and mobile power solutions."
"We are very excited to become part of the Energizer family of branded products," said Gil Hetzroni, CEO of Power Bright Technologies. "The Energizer brand is recognized as the standard for power solutions and our power inverter line is a natural evolution to their outstanding family of products. Our products are designed to provide optimum reliability and their ultra-compact size enables our customers to use them in a variety of environments from home, car, and RVs to semi-trucks. Power Bright looks forward to many years working with Energizer."

Energy Efficiency with Class D Amplifier Modules
Class-D switching amplifiers are helping audio designers create personal multimedia devices and home audio/visual systems that demonstrate how compact and stylish equipment can also deliver high sound quality and high audio output power. The key to this breakthrough, providing freedom from the large and bulky boxes housing traditional audio products, lies in the class-D amplifier’s high energy efficiency, which is typically around 90%. This allows designers to reduce or eliminate heatsinks as well as using smaller-sized PCBs and smaller components such as transformers, connectors and power supplies.

The Role of Hall Effect Sensors in Power Distribution Infrastructure
Power distribution units (PDUs) form an essential part of modern computing and data communications hardware. They provide multiple outputs for transferring electrical power with maximum efficiency, controlling the power capacity and safeguarding against the possible causes of supply interruption. With an ever increasing need from tech savvy consumers for higher data throughput and greater quantities of data storage capacity, as well as tough international legislation now governing CO&sub2; emissions, the demands being placed on these units are proving challenging for engineering teams to satisfy.
