General information
- Short Summary
- A Greek SME is offering their innovative flashlight device using a patented, groundbreaking galvanic cell technology, capable of producing electricity on demand when activated by any water-based medium. The company is looking for commercial partners across Europe to bring this device to the market.
- Full Description
-
A Greek company conducting extensive research in the sector of renewable energy has developed a new type of energy cells that can produce usable energy from water without the use of toxins or chemicals. Their innovative type of cells can support many different low energy consuming devices for the emergency sector and more. Based on that technology, the company has developed and introduced a revolutionary flashlight device based on novel galvanic cells as environmentally-friendly and reliable power alternative. Unlike traditional battery operated flashlight devices, this flashlight instantly generates electricity when exposed to any liquid medium, providing an ideal solution for various on-demand energy needs, with emphasis on emergency applications.
More analytically, the innovative flashlight is compact, efficient and environmentally friendly. It provides unique features and characteristics and has been developed to support demanding applications such as emergency power supply without incorporation of a battery cell or any other external energy source.
Additionally, the emergency flashlight using the abovementioned innovative technology, is durable and lightweight and once activated, lasts long enough without the need for re-activation. It can be repeatedly used for long periods of time.
Concerning its key features, the offered flashlight, apart from the novel technology incorporated, utilizes safe, durable and recyclable materials for zero environmental impact. It features a portable and space-constrained use, eliminates any need for recharging or energy storage and has been tested to work with various water-based media, enhancing adaptability.
Furthermore, the device employs the company’s patented technology developed by its research laboratory and leverages electrochemical process by transforming the chemical energy produced from the galvanic cell into constant electrical current, both efficiently and reliably. It has been designed to provide a sustainable and practical solution for emergency needs that require mostly rapid, instantly available and long-lasting lighting source. Also, the device is CE-certified and complies with GSPD, ANSI/NEMA FL1 2009 standards, underscoring the company’s commitment to high quality and sustainability.
Currently, the company is looking for commercial partners of any size from Europe and beyond to market the offered portable lighting devices. The company is willing to establish collaborations under the framework of commercial agreement(s). - Advantages and Innovations
