Eddy Electronic Descaler - Water Softener Alternative



Do you live in a hard water area and suffer from lime scale on sinks, faucets and showers? This is because your water supply contains dissolved magnesium, calcium, manganese compounds which appear as troublesome lime scale. They form into hard deposits settling on the surfaces of sinks, faucets, pipes and inside appliances, creating restrictions and greatly reducing the efficiency of water heaters and furnaces. Eddy is easy for anyone to fit, requires NO plumbing changes, does not require any salt and costs a fraction of the price of a conventional salt-fed water softener.


Eddy produces a complex electro-magnetic wave which is applied through two coils placed round your incoming water supply pipe. In this way your water is subjected to an ever changing magnetic field as it passes through the coils. This alters the adhesion properties of the limescale so that it no longer deposits itself on your clean surfaces, inside pipework and appliances. Eddy does NOT alter the chemical hardness (TDS) of the water so the beneficial effects of the calcium and other particulates is retained - for example, calcium has been shown in medical tests to reduce incidence of heart disease.


Eddy has been successfully used worldwide in thousands of homes and businesses for over 15 years, is highly economical and in most cases represents an easy eco-friendly alternative to salt-based water softeners. It is effective on all types of water pipe (except lead and iron) and is the only descaler to come with a risk-free, no-quibble 12 month money-back guarantee and a Lifetime repair or replace guarantee.


Thousands have been sold for use in homes and businesses. Buy with confidence. Comes with standard cables for pipe diameters up to 1.5 inches. For larger pipes please see Eddy 'Coil Set C' on our Amazon Storefront. SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING MONEY-BACK WARRANTY: To avoid Amazon 20% restock fee after 30 days, please contact us to arrange returns so that your money can be refunded in full.

Salter Electronic Baby and Toddler Scale



OH BABY, a scale that grows with your baby! From the very first weighing up through their toddler years, the Salter baby and toddler scale will give you years of precise, accurate measurements. As an infant, your baby will be safely and contently nestled in the ergonomic platform, with a smooth comfortable surface which is locked onto the base. As a toddler, simply unlock and remove the infant tray and voila, you have a teddy bear scale with non-slip “eyeballs” for secure foot placement. The Salter 914 baby and toddler scale has several special features.


First, a hold function that allows you to read the display for 30 seconds after the baby is removed. Also included is a zero function that is used when weighing the baby in a diaper or blanket. All you have to do is put a spare diaper on the scale and press the zero button. The scale will display a negative reading showing the weight of the diaper. Now place the baby in a diaper on the scale and it automatically subtracts the weight of the diaper to give you an accurate measurement of the baby’s true weight.


We know how important it is to measure every single ounce gained during those critical first years, so the Salter 914 baby and toddler scale measures in extra precise ½ ounce increments up to 44 pounds. This scale is powered by a replaceable nine-volt battery (not included), with an auto-off feature that will extend the battery life for years of accurate weight measurement. Versatile, cost-effective and accurate, the Salter 914 baby and toddler scale is a great shower gift for the new baby in your life.

    Consumer Electronics - the next frontier



    Dear members of the IEEE, the world's largest technical professional organization, I found that advances in wireless power, remote monitoring and voice activation for space travel and exploration will play an increasingly significant role in the development of consumer electronics products used by the average person being here on Earth.


    "Ever since the Apollo program of 70 civilians have benefited from space technology, such as wireless tools and appliances, smoke detectors, quartz timing crystals used in watches, tempur foam and much more ..., not to mention all the GPS," said Edward Tunstel, IEEE Fellow and senior Roboticist at Johns Hopkins University applied physics laboratory. "Technological progress made by space travel and exploration, will continue to have a dynamic impact on the design of new consumer products."


    Wireless power cuts a cord
    Consumer electronics companies are constantly challenged with finding alternative and more inventive ways to electrical appliances. Space travel also requires a significant amount of energy for a mission and it's important to have all the electronics – plugged in devices and hardware – consume energy as efficiently as possible. Space research works on the development of the power transmission type, which transmit solar energy from space to the Earth's energy grid for distribution. The ability to transmit power to electronic devices in a wireless network is being developed, which can get rid of the need for the inclusion of devices in the sources of energy, using physical wires.


    "Wireless power has already been transmitted on a wireless network to broadcast a charge. Whether a separate network will be developed to transmit power or we will use existing wireless networks for Wireless charging devices in space or in the home is still being determined. Anyway, power can be transmitted from one box look similar to wireless router over an open environment. This eventually could power Blender, TV and washing machine, eliminating the need to join in, "said Tunstel.


    A remote control allows Humanlike reaction
    Remote control and computational capabilities of Rovers and robotic vehicles explore the astronomical surfaces are essential for the future of the creation of a more realistic and physical applications of surveillance equipment for everyday use. "With Rovers as a curiosity is controlled millions of miles away from Earth, it has magnified the need for accuracy in movement around them," said Richard from Garriot, IEEE member and Chairman of space adventures Ltd., a private space exploration company. "The practical use of remote sensing technology are already allow us to create artificial limbs for people who now can sense real limbs, they are attached to, and function as a real appendage."


    Voice control changes the design of the product
    The main barrier to mass space travel has always been cost. And the weight of the material space contributes to the bulk of the cost of space travel. Voice control is described as a barrier-breaking technology that will help reduce the high cost of weight in space flight, but was also seen as a game changer for the way consumer electronics are designed for the user.


    "Advanced voice control, developed for space will have a tremendous impact on how other consumer electronics, mobile devices, will be developed. Systems and will eventually become user friendly and size for the device is not going to be a factor, "said norm Augustine, an IEEE Fellow and Chairman of the review of United States human space flight plans Committee. "With the significant reduction in weight and voice controlled technologies, it will help dramatically reduce costs, which will in turn make a space trip ordinary event by 2050, however users will not wait nearly as long to make use of all the technological advances, such as voice control, which will eventually become reality for commercial space travel."

    Experts Identify the Fourth R-word in Sustainability Repair



    Reduce, reuse, and recycle is the foundation of sustainable living. However, experts from IEEE, the world’s largest technical professional organization, identified repair as an equally important, environmentally friendly R-word, especially when it comes to the consumer electronics industry. Through modest design changes, cellphone manufacturers can improve the repairability of its products and streamline the upstream manufacturing process, thereby minimizing environmental impact while also improving global commerce and social development.


    According to the International Data Corporation (IDC)'s Worldwide Mobile Phone Tracker, vendors will ship more than 1.7 billion mobile phones in 2013, and this number is forecasted to grow 1.4 percent year-over-year. There is a considerable environmental impact to manufacturing this volume of cellphones when you consider that it takes approximately 165 pounds of raw materials to manufacture a cellphone and over eight gallons of water to produce one microchip.


    “Life Cycle Assessment of the Mobile Communication System UMTS: Towards Eco-Efficient Systems,” a paper from the IEEE International Symposium on Electronics and the Environment, indicates that extending the service life of the phone from one to four years decreases the environmental impact by about 40 percent. While innovations are being made to improve the sustainability of this process, cellphone manufacturers can garner more immediate environmentally friendly benefits by making their products more easily repairable.


    “Cellphone companies manufacture a wide range of devices to meet the technological and budget requirements from early adopters to first-time cellphone owners in leading world markets and developing nations across the globe,” said Stu Lipoff, IEEE Fellow and president of IP Action. “Upstream cellphone manufacturing, which includes the mining of raw materials, mine tailings, and fresh water polluted in the process, as well as the energy required to refine and manufacture the device, can be reduced by employing designs that enable easier and more economic device repairability. In this way, refurbished phones from the first market can have an extended life through use in secondary and tertiary markets. This process would not only help reduce the environmental impact from the manufacturing process but also provide more advanced technology for developing nations, helping to stimulate global commerce.”


    Making a Screwdriver a Tool of Sustainability
    Advancements in technology are enabling manufacturers to make devices smaller and sleeker. However, along with this trend, they are also employing more closed designs and using materials that are making devices nearly unfixable.


    “Regardless of size, there are numerous design features that manufacturers can use to improve the repairability of their products,” said Kyle Wiens, IEEE member and CEO of iFixit. “Simple things like utilizing openable cases, using screws rather than adhesives, and providing easy access to parts that are most likely to break, like screens, greatly improve the repairability of cellphones and significantly extend their life. It is imperative for designers to incorporate sustainable features into their products not only to make them last longer but to help promote a more sustainable and environmentally friendly future.”

    IEEE Spectrum Wins Third Grand Neal Award



    IEEE Spectrum announced that it received the coveted Grand Neal Award during the Association of Business Information & Media Companies’ (ABM) 59th Annual Jesse H. Neal Awards ceremony, held Tuesday at Pier Sixty in New York City.


    This is IEEE Spectrum's third Grand Neal Award, and it is the only publication in the last 20 years to have achieved this distinction. Known as the “Pulitzer Prizes" of the business press, the Neal Awards were established in 1955 and have continuously recognized editorial excellence since their inception.


    The winning entry, "A Shocking Truth," by Mark Harris (March 2012 issue), earned the Grand Neal from a pool of 640 submissions and also took home the Neal Award for "Best Single Article." His story, about automated external defibrillators (AEDs), describes how and why AEDs fail and what happens when they don’t work. The devices are expected to operate perfectly, even if they have been hanging on the wall of an office or a school gym for years without being used.


    IEEE Spectrum also won the Neal Award for "Best Use of Mobile" for its innovative “Robots for iPad" app. The critically acclaimed app features more than 100 real-world robots, with photos, videos, and interactive animations. IEEE Spectrum plans to release an update for the app, adding even more robots this spring.


    “Being recognized by our peers for important, innovative work is fantastic. As a magazine covering groundbreaking advances in technology, innovation has to be one of our own core values as well,” says Susan Hassler, IEEE Spectrum’s Editor-in-Chief. “These awards tell us we’re moving in the right direction.”

    The standards essential patents and antitrust law



    Dr. John d. Kulick, Chairman of the Board of standards IEEE Standards Association (IEEE-SA), today testified before the United States Senate Judiciary Committee Subcommittee on antitrust, competition policy and consumer rights of "standard-essential patent litigation and antitrust law.  IEEE standards organization was development, invited to testify at the hearing.  The IEEE standards development serves customers that are compatible with the IEEE mission of development of technology for the benefit of mankind.  Kulick was joined by Deputy Director Susan Munck from the Federal Trade Commission, as well as by representatives of Intel Corporation and Qualcomm Incorporated.


    Kulick testified that the activities of the Subcommittee "is very timely and can be a breaking point" in global efforts to tackle the important intersection of patents, standards and antitrust issues.


    Kulick said that "the IEEE is fully aware of the importance of comprehensive patent policy and has introduced a balanced framework with detailed rules and procedures that determine how proprietary technology should be taken into account in the IEEE standards."  Kulick has outlined the principles for the development of IEEE standards, including due process, a broad consensus in the range of interests, transparency of information and records, balance without dominance and openness to all stakeholders.


    Kulick pointed out, however, that the emphasis on the standards development organization (SDO) rules is not enough.  "Actually, it is a paradigm shift is necessary."  He called for "enhanced self-regulation of patenting behavior during the early stages of the standardization process through close cooperation between patent offices and SDOs.  He gave as an example the Kulick of strategic memorandum of understanding that IEEE signed in 2010 with the European Patent Office – the first ever between SDO and patent regulatory authority. "  IEEE-SA has offered to explore cooperation with other patent offices and regulatory bodies around the world.

    Innovator of wireless communication technologies



    Dr. Irwin mark Jacobs, a pioneering engineer and business leader whose vision and experience are driving revolutionary innovations important to today's digital and wireless communications systems, was honored by the IEEE with 2013 Medal of IEEE. IEEE is the world's largest technical professional organization in the world.


    Medal, sponsored by the IEEE Foundation, recognizes Dr. Jacobs for leadership and fundamental contribution to the digital communications and wireless technology. The award will be presented on June 6, 2013 at the headquarters of Qualcomm, and Dr. Jacobs will be recognized during the 2013 IEEE Honors ceremony in San Diego, California. The event will be streamlined live at 4: 00 pm PST on IEEE.tv.


    From its origins as a theorist of communications Dr. Jacobs success lies in its vision and the ability to take ideas that advance digital technology from theory to practice and successful trading. As co-founder of tech companies, which have provided important innovations he has played a key role in the switchover from analogue to digital communication experience over the past 40 years.


    Dr. Jacobs co-founded Qualcomm Incorporated in 1985 and he's from a small technology company, a Fortune 500 company. It helps to bring revolutionary innovations such as code division multiple access (CDMA) technology, which greatly improves cellular communication effectiveness compared with analog systems. Dr. Jacobs overcame initial skepticism and controversy with the introduction of new technologies and lead to a successful implementation and a CDMA standardization. CDMA will become the Foundation of the third generation (3 g) wireless systems.


    Dr. Jacobs is also a means of Qualcomm in the development of satellite communications and tracking system for the motto. Use full spectrum technologies, advanced signal processing and innovative antenna design, the system provides the first two-way communication and positioning system for fleet management. Commercial, known as the OmniTRACS system is still in use in the world today.


    Before Qualcomm Dr. Jacobs co-founded Linkabit Corporation in 1968, which provides innovative semiconductor technology and programmable devices, which are important for the development of a companion in the House television services.  Dr. Jacobs, Honorary Member of MIT from 1959 to 1966 and John Wozencraft co-authored principles of communication engineering "(Wiley, 1965), who is considered one of the best communications theory textbooks ever written and still in use today.


    IEEE life fellow, a member of the United States National Academy of engineering and a member of the American Association for the advancement of science, Jacobs very distinctions include United States National Medal of technology (1994) and the inaugural IEEE Vehicular Technology Society Hall of Fame Award (2009). Jacobs is the founder and Chairman and CEO Emeritus of Qualcomm.

    The need for high speed PV news release



    The need for high speed: IEEE experts predict, 60 percent of vehicles on the road will be Internet enabled by 2025.

    Vehicle-to-vehicle communication, software security and diversified autonomous vehicles lanes improve safety and drive the future of travel

    August 28 – members of the IEEE, the largest professional organization in the world dedicated to advancing technology for humanity, believe that Internet maintenance of vehicles will play the role of a tool for improving the future of Esperanto. It is estimated that by 2025, 60% of the cars on the road will be the Internet connection that will encourage improved safety systems, improved vehicle software protection and continued acceptance of autonomous vehicles.

    "The car is equipped with a blue tooth and the ability to interact with mobile devices, we begin to see car manufacturers applying for automobile-related technologies," said Jeffrey Miller, IEEE member and associate professor in Computer Systems Engineering Department at the University of Alaska, anchorage. "The prevalence of associated cars will allow users to treat their vehicles as just another one of their devices. Hosting mobile operating systems and buying data packages from wireless providers will be commonplace in the future. "

    21st century safety
    Internet connected vehicles will also play a vital role in improving safety and convenience features. Since the technology supports communication between people, we will start seeing the change in how vehicles interact with one another, known as a vehicle to vehicle communication. "Through the vehicle-vehicle communication, the cars will be able to travel in the vicinity between the faster speeds and automatically redirect to avoid dangerous weather or congested roads," said Christoph Stiller, a member of the IEEE and Professor at the Karlsruhe Institute of technology, Germany. "Since these features, human error is almost out of driving, making it safer and more enjoyable experience."

    Hack on the highway?
    As vehicles become more accepting of wireless communications, the car will become increasingly vulnerable to software hacks. "Hackers could potentially have the ability to affect the audio features, disable the ignition of the vehicle, there is advantage braking systems and infect the software with Trojan horses and viruses," said Kevin Curran, senior member of the IEEE and Professor on computing and engineering in the University of Ulster, UK "in combating this, manufacturers should start setting up firewalls in place to restrict access of integrated systems. There is a strong presence of a relationship between the vehicle networks so that a breach in one network can cause havoc in another. "

    Autonomous vehicles and Internet: more productive travel
    Increasing dependence on the connected devices and the rise of Internet enabled vehicle means that consumers will increase their confidence and reliance on automated systems. This trend will encourage increased adoption of autonomous vehicles, further justifying the IEEE predictions made last year that 75% of the cars on the road will be autonomous to 2040.

    "Confidence in automated systems technology is the key to the widespread adoption of autonomous vehicles," said Alberto Broggi, a senior member of the IEEE and Professor of computer engineering at the University of Parma in Italy. "It's amazing to think that just six years ago, smartphones didn't exist and now people can not live without them. This dependence, which users have acquired will be the catalyst for autonomous vehicles, which leads people to trust the automated technology. Within the next five years the bands will be dedicated for specific use of autonomous vehicles. "

    In the future, Broggi believes that driving would be more than a novelty, "people will actually pay to drive manual cars similar to go carts."
