The new product line is available in select locations nationwide, but will be officially debuting in retailer and warehouse clubs across the country during the first quarter of 2009.
The recent natural disasters and widespread power outages throughout the country have reinforced our belief that these products are a necessity for all consumers and businesses, said Reid Goldstein, President of Capstone Industries. The Eco-i-Lite products were designed to be lightweight and easy to use, making them ideal for disasters as well as everyday household needs.
Designed as the first aesthetically pleasing power failure devices, these multi-functional products combine the convenience of a power failure light, a flashlight, and nightlight.
Each product brings together safety, design and sustainability while including the following features:
LED handheld light comes out of the charging base effortlessly.
LED Nightlight with auto sensor turns on automatically when the room or space is dark or can be left on at all times.
Environmentally friendly rechargeable Lithium Ion battery and LED bulbs, which require no replacement.
Cutting edge Induction Charging base is safe and reliable.
Convenient for every room in the house.
The Eco-i-Lite products use inductive charging versus traditional conductive charging, eliminating the possibility of electric shock from typically exposed conductors. Currently the full size Eco-i-Lite has earned the ENERGY STAR for meeting strict energy-efficiency guidelines set by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the U.S. Department of Energy. On average, ENERGY STAR qualified battery chargers will use 35% less energy than conventional models.
