LED lighting company, Solid Apollo LED, introduces the new more compact and value priced driverless 3528 LED Strip Light with three white color options. The driverless strip light can be ordered in lengths as short as 19 inches and as long as 165 continuous feet using just one plug. The 3528 driverless strip light is waterproof and comes ready to plug in straight out of the box and has a variety of accessories available to ensure a perfect fitting installation.

Currently do-it-yourselfers, architects and designers have limited options towards high quality long lasting driverless LED strip lights, either the cost is too high or excessive wiring is needed to complete the installation. One alternative is rope lights, but due to their low quality and inefficient non-directional light and limited configuration accessories, it can be hard to accurately aim the light in the correct direction, and even harder to create an installation that correctly fits. Low voltage light strip is also available, but extra wiring, splicing and installation time is required for repowering the strip to avoid voltage loss and light dimming.

Solid Apollo LED has created the new plug in driverless LED strip light with matching accessories to create an installation which correctly fits and accurately casts light in the correct direction. LED rope lights were great when they came out, but with the low quality, short lifespan and soon diminishing brightness, the LED rope light has a lot left to be desired stated Manuel Barquin, CEO of Solid Apollo LED, the new driverless 3528 strip light brings higher quality, more accurate directional light control and more color options to match a variety of projects.

Solid Apollo LEDs 3528 driverless LED strip light is perfect for long length runs requiring waterproof LED lights. Install under the railings of decks, outline pathways, tuck in soffits, wrap around gardens or use in faade lighting. The thinner more compact design is just 0.31 wide for fitting in even more tight spots and to more easily hide the strip so only the light from the strip is visible. Solid Apollo LED also has the accessories to make difficult installations easy, with connectors, brackets and repowering strips available to make bends, jumps and even through-wall installations simpler.

The 3528 is fully dimmable and uses high quality materials to ensure a long 20,000 hour lifespan. Three white colors are available, Pure White, Daylight White and Warm White to match the varied colors on a variety of projects. Look to the driverless 3528 LED Strip Light as the plug in long life solution for indoor and outdoor projects.

Another driverless option for outdoor projects is the iChroma 20W Wall Washer from Solid Apollo LED. The iChroma is perfect for washing vibrant colors on walls and wide surfaces, and comes with a built in controller with pre-loaded programs, or control the iChroma with a remote or in-wall controller.

PUBLIC RELEASE DATE:

14-Sep-2014

Menlo Park, Calif. A comprehensive look at how tiny particles in a lithium ion battery electrode behave shows that rapid-charging the battery and using it to do high-power, rapidly draining work may not be as damaging as researchers had thought and that the benefits of slow draining and charging may have been overestimated.

The results challenge the prevailing view that "supercharging" batteries is always harder on battery electrodes than charging at slower rates, according to researchers from Stanford University and the Stanford Institute for Materials & Energy Sciences (SIMES) at the Department of Energy's SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory.

They also suggest that scientists may be able to modify electrodes or change the way batteries are charged to promote more uniform charging and discharging and extend battery life.

"The fine detail of what happens in an electrode during charging and discharging is just one of many factors that determine battery life, but it's one that, until this study, was not adequately understood," said William Chueh of SIMES, an assistant professor at Stanford's Department of Materials Science and Engineering and senior author of the study. "We have found a new way to think about battery degradation."

The results, he said, can be directly applied to many oxide and graphite electrodes used in today's commercial lithium ion batteries and in about half of those under development.

His team described the study September 14, 2014, in Natural Materials. The team included collaborators from Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Sandia National Laboratories, Samsung Advanced Institute of Technology America and Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory.

Study sheds new light on why batteries go bad

A three-year artists residency at the Institute of Neuroscience at Newcastle University, where she met clinicians, research scientists, psychiatrists and their patients, enabled her to explore her ideas further and culminated in Reassembling the Self, a series of exhibitions that she curated across the city, including her own work and that of other artists. A selection of the work opens in London this week.

As an artist, I focus on what it means to be human, she says. In that sense, I work a little like a scientist exploring brain conditions and problems that might clarify who we are. Schizophrenia sheds light on all our experiences it is just at one end of the spectrum of being human.

One series of her lithographs starts with an ear, reflecting the idea of voices, then progresses to reassembled figures with body parts in the wrong places; the work is inspired by the Evelyn Tables, remarkable 17th-century depictions of human anatomy in the Hunterian Museum in London. They were physically dismantled and reassembled body parts, stuck down on boards, built up layer by layer into one finished form, Aldworth explains.

Two other artists in the exhibition, Camille Ormston and Kevin Mitchinson, have schizophrenia. They are both untrained, but art is a vital means of expressing what goes on inside their heads. Aldworth met them once a month for two years, when they told her about delusions, being hospitalised, and how medication numbs them.

Camille wanted to be a doctor, but psychotic episodes that started when she was only 16 put an end to that, Aldworth explains. Mitchinson hears voices that tell him what he should paint; although some of these are terrifying, he says he would feel lost without them. Schizophrenia has literally taken them both apart and reassembled them, Aldworth comments.

The project did not end with Aldworths residency. Ormston and Mitchison now regularly attend Newcastle and Gateshead Arts Studio which supports artists with mental health difficulties, and they will join Aldworth in London to see their work on show a reassembly of the best possible kind.

'Reassembling the Self opens tomorrow at GV Art Gallery, 49 Chiltern Street, London W1, until Oct 11; susanaldworth.com
