This would help the electric appliance companies and people who are very stringent about spending even pie.
Few weeks back i came across an TV Advertisement of A/C with built in stabilizer.
Most of the parts of India is in darkness and the usage of electricity is unorganized even in the high - tech cities. At the Max what is used is long hours back up inverter or generators, which;
a) Occupies space.
b) Consumes lot of electricity.
So when i saw that advertisement, what flashed into my mind was how about having a small inverter built inside the appliance itself, it could be any appliance say, Refrigerator, Computers, A/c, coolers etc. So when the instrument is on during the power availability with the output it is also recharging itself for the time when the power is not available.
When Titans can came up with the slimmest watch, Tata's - Nano Car and we also have technologies like Nano Ram and others, to me this doesn't seem a difficult task. So guys go ahead, the idea is put forward at no cost at all.
Cheers!!

Well, then that would put the inverters out of business wouldn't it? You've got to analyse ideas sometimes from an economic point of view . You've got to get the consumers to spend more, if you want more flows in the economy. The more flow there is, the richer the country gets. Cost of living index increases, which is good.
ReplyDeleteThe idea for having a back-up power source, which i henceforth term as dual power source is essential when you're in transit. R&D have successfully come up with concepts (and maybe even working models now) of automobiles which run on dual power (one for back-up).
And judging from a consumer POV, i doubt if a normal consumer would pay in extra to buy an appliance which has a built in back-up power source. Just think about it. You're spending more on EVERY product you buy, when you can just go out and get one inverter which supports the whole house instead for a lesser. I know i would do this.
But i still don't think inverters are any innovation at all. My brother's friend is working on harnessing wind to generate electricity. They use this in Holland (windmills, ring a bell?) He has successfully established a company which is already into R&D in this direction. Making this a more domestic product. If everyone could have some sort of a windmill at home, something compact. It could make a huge difference.
I've seen the difference. Some appliances in our estate run on wind-generated electricity. They have a windmill there. I know this is a debatable issue, because wind will be useful only in open areas, but there is R&D going on. I'll keep you posted about any significant developments.
Coming back to the issue of built in stabilisers, well that is an innovation i'd like to see in computers. Especially since i've had to replace my UPS twice after i got it. Power surge really affects the computer UPS, but strangely doesn't affect the UPS supporting the whole house. If they can come up with built in stabilisers for bigger appliances, than that would be an innovation i would gladly welcome
Cheers
