| | Energy Conservation Technologies, Inc. Develops Preproduction Printed Circuit Board (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15) |
 | | Utilizing this preproduction model, beginning the first quarter of 2005, the company plans to install over 50 units in three beta test sites. |
 | | The production prototype product confirmed Econ's initial estimates of the costs being very comparable to HID magnetic ballasts, a key factor for competing head on with the half-a-century old magnetic ballast industry. |
 | | In addition, besides saving approximately 30 to 35 percent of the electrical energy needed to power HID lamps, the preproduction product is approximately 6"x5"x1.7", smaller and lighter than originally predicted. |
