Muscle vehicles got the actual name for the reason that the engine had been designed for high-performance driving. The muscle auto was high-priced back then mainly because insurance was high, as well as the elements necessary for best performance were difficult to acquire. This was all in addition to the raise in energy costs.

Klipsch to Illuminate Audio Industry with New LightSpeaker
Energy-saving product uniquely combines brilliant LED lighting and wireless ambient sound

INDIANAPOLIS, IN (January 5, 2010) — Klipsch, a leading global speaker manufacturer, has been named the U.S. distributor and licensee of what is possibly the most innovative design to hit the audio industry in recent years. Winner of a 2010 CES Innovations Award, the patented Klipsch® LightSpeaker®, developed by Kadence Designs LLC., is the first product to combine efficient LED lighting and wireless ambient sound into a single unit that installs like a light bulb.

“Today’s consumers are overloaded with complex technologies, and the LightSpeaker is designed to enrich their lives without complication,” said Klipsch president Paul Jacobs. It offers brilliant light, reduces energy costs and creates a multi-room ambient music system in mere minutes. There’s no wiring, no retrofitting and no software to deal with.”

The LightSpeaker, which comes complete with a dimmable LED bulb and full-range speaker, fits 5- and 6-inch recessed light fixtures with a standard Edison socket. Upcoming accessories will allow the LightSpeaker to accommodate hanging light fixtures as well as floor and table lamps.

The speaker uses a 20 watt high-performance, low-distortion digital amplifier to deliver energy efficient sound. Furthermore, the LightSpeaker’s 2.5-inch wide dispersion driver uses digital signal processing to optimize high- and low-frequency output for a full spectrum of sound.

In order to deliver music wirelessly, the LightSpeaker relies on a standalone transmitter. A music source, such as a laptop, iPod or CD player, connects to the transmitter and it wirelessly sends the sound to the LightSpeaker. The transmitter’s 2.4GHz wireless technology accommodates up to eight LightSpeakers, equaling stereo sound in multiple rooms. You can connect two music sources to the transmitter, as well as establish two separate listening zones. The transmitter or remote will control the sources, zones, lighting levels and volume.

The LED bulb is rated for 40,000 hours of use and can last over 15 years. It also reduces daily lighting expenses by 80 percent, using 10 watts to produce light that’s bright enough to replace up to a 65 watt bulb. Unlike incandescent bulbs, the LightSpeaker LED bulb contains no mercury or halogen gases and produces almost no heat.

Ed Haase, president of Kadence Designs and acoustics engineer by trade, led the team responsible for developing the LightSpeaker. “We chose Klipsch to be our U.S. distributor because it’s a name in audio you can trust,” he says. “The brand has been around for over 60 years and finds continuous success because of its commitment to innovation and quality.”

According to Jacobs, Klipsch is completely thrilled about this opportunity. “The LightSpeaker is just an amazing product,” he notes. “It’s also exciting to work with Ed because he’s considered a legend in the custom installation business, having been one of the original co-founders of SpeakerCraft.”

A bundled package, consisting of two LightSpeakers, a transmitter, radio frequency remote, mini jack to RCA plug cable, lenses and trim, retails for $599. Single LightSpeakers are also available for $249 each. Klipsch will begin selling the LightSpeaker on klipsch.com later this month, with broader distribution slated for March.

“A LightSpeaker package eventually pays for itself, through savings on professional installation, separate audio components and energy consumption,” concluded Jacobs. “Plus you can take it with you if you move.”

First of all what I tell all of my clients of my San Diego replacement windows company that they need to look at it as an investment.They need to not see it as another way of spending more money.  Because what they invest in replacing old windows will return to them in savings on energy plus it will add value to their home.It isn’t something that will be hard to do once you explain to them their benefits of getting new windows.

As previously stated earlier that when you do get new windows you are going to save in energy costs.  I tell all my clients of my San Diego glass company that if they want to find ways to save money, saving energy is a good area to do it in.And the moment you have your windows replaced, you will own a now more energy efficient home.

Finally doing work in my San Diego frameless glass shower service I also stress the importance of getting new windows for their bathroom as well.  These are for those that invest a lot of money getting glass showers.I try to be certain that they know they have to get new windows to improve that room as well.

Hopefully this article was able to convey to you so that you could see how clearly replacing windows are an investment.  And all good investments always return money and this is no different.You are going to save money in energy saving plus the value of your home goes up with replacement windows.

First thing you must do is to check if your windows are double paned.  In my San Diego replacement windows service a lot of the older homes were made with single paned windows.This can waste a lot of energy.If your windows are single paned you must replace them immediately. This won’t just save you money this winter but it will save you money over the life of your home. 

Obviously I have clients of my San Diego glass company business who say that it is a big expense.  It is at first. But when you factor all the savings it will give you over the years it really is an investment.  Plus it adds tremendous value to your home.It can also save you on energy bills even during the summer time.It can save you a lot in the summer because it can retain the cold during summer.

Another good investment along with the windows are frameless glass showers.Studies have proven that these glass showers can retain the heat in.This can really help during the winter.  I have clients of my San Diego frameless glass shower service who let me know how much better it is with a glass shower.

So those are some ways that you can stay warm and save money. It is an investment and not an expense when you realize what you save.

Your hybrid is great and all (never mind that it’s arguably more wasteful of resources than my old Volvo), but it’s no longer cool enough to just have a hybrid. Everybody is producing hybrids now, and they’re just not making enough progress where progress needs to be made. There are a few companies, though, who are actually stepping up and taking a risk on vehicles that don’t use gas engines as their primary means of propulsion. Check them out, after the jump.

Mitsubishi PX-MiEV Concept

This is what Mitsubishi calls a “plug-in hybrid crossover,” which seems a little bit redundant to me. There are electric motors to power both the front and rear wheels, and a gas engine can add power to the front wheels or power a generator. These systems can be combined in a bunch of ways, and the vehicle does so on its own depending on how reckless of a driver you are (among other factors).

Also, here’s a pretty cool feature: “In addition, to maximize effective use of the drive battery, the vehicle is equipped with a power supply mode that allows the use of some battery power to supply domestic appliances or as an emergency power source in the event of a natural disaster.” Basically, what they’re suggesting you do is plug the PX-MiEV into your house, charge it up with cheap electricity in the middle of the night, and then use its batteries to power your toaster during the day when energy costs peak.

But wait, there’s more! The interior includes “a negative-ion aroma humidifier and oxygen enricher that improve comfort and reduce fatigue,” and if the car thinks you’re starting to fall asleep, it “emits a distinctive fragrance” to alert you to the situation. There aren’t any specifics as to what this fragrance IS, so let your imagination run wild. Or don’t.

Chevy Volt

We’ve been covering the Volt for several years now (and covering and covering) but here’s the gist: it plugs in to the wall, goes 40 miles on batteries, and then uses its gas engine to make it an extra 300+ miles. The latest news (sort of news) is that the Volt is going to go on sale in California late next year for probably around $40k. Seeing is believing, but I will say that the Volt at the show looked more than a little used, which is a good sign… I guess somebody is actually getting to drive one of these.

Mini E

This little guy is unchanged from last year, and field trials are underway in select cities. Unfortunately, it hasn’t been going that well. A 4 hour charge gets you a usable range of about 100 miles, but the back seat (and part of the trunk) is entirely taken up by a gigantic battery pack.

Mercedes-Benz F-Cell

Ah, here we go. F-Cell means (you guessed it) fuel cell, and the F-Cell has one. Compressed hydrogen reacts with ambient oxygen to create electricity and pure water, which is a pretty lucrative source of power for people who are both eco-minded and thirsty. The rest of F-Cell is based on the Mercedes B-Class, a small and efficient model that’s popular everywhere in the world except for North America.

The big problem with this car? My local gas station doesn’t refill hydrogen, and neither does anybody else. Mercedes is going to bring 200 production F-Cell cars to the US anyway, for a lease-test program next year.

Honda FCX Clarity

Also a hydrogen fuel cell vehicle, the FCX Clarity captured our attention last year thanks to the innovative way that Honda tackled the refueling problem: each FCX Clarity comes with a Home Energy Station that sucks hydrogen out of your natural gas line and feeds it to your car while creating heat and electricity at the same time. About 200 of these cars have been produced and are available for lease, sort of… They go for $600 a month, but you won’t get one because you’re not special.

Toyota Prius Plug-In Hybrid

This is Toyota’s tentative first step towards an hybrid vehicle with an option to go pure electric, which is weird, considering the experience that they have with the Prius. Their plug-in version offers relatively uninspiring specs, too… The number you care about, which is maximum mileage on electricity alone, is a mere 13 miles using their first generation lithium-ion battery pack (current Priuses use nickel-metal hydride batts). You’ll get those 13 miles after a 3 hour charge on a regular (i.e. 110 volt) outlet.

Toyota plans to produce 500 Prius Plug-In Hybrids in 2010, 150 of which will end up with customers in the US for testing. But again, it won’t be you.

Fisker Karma

Without an appearance by Tesla (and probably even if there had been), the Fisker Karma was both the eco-friendly car that I’d most like to drive, and one of the few that is actually going to be available to be owned by normal (rich) people in the near future. The Karma has an extended range electric powertrain, which means that you can drive it on batteries for 50 miles or so, and after that, a small and efficient gas engine kicks in to keep you going for another 250 miles. With 400 hp and a top speed of 125 mph (which I imagine is electronically limited), it clocks a 0-60 time of just over 7 seconds on batteries only, and knocks that down to 5.8 with the assistance of the little engine.

This car is the same production version that we saw a year ago (complete with the solar panel roof), but shockingly (shockingly!), the price has gone up: excluding any potential tax credits, the EcoStandard model will run you $87,900 with the EcoSport convertible bumping that up to $94,900 with a leather interior and premium sound system. An extra $11,500 gets you an interior made with no animal products and wood trim that’s been made out of logs harvested from the bottom of lakes. Kinda makes me wonder what you get if you don’t pay for that upgrade… Probably rainforest hardwood and Northern Hairy-nosed Wombat skin seats or something.

Fisker says that “our goal is to make eco-friendly cars without compromise either in performance or design.” It looks like they’re about to pull it off, too, and the first Karmas should be showing up in driveways by the end of next year.

The LA Auto Show is open to the public from December 4th to the 13th.

First thing why new windows can be considered an investment is because it can save you a lot on energy expenses.  With my San Diego replacement windows company I try to emphasize that a lot.People do not know that old windows can waste a lot of energy.Because during summertime the house gets hotter so you will use a lot more air conditioning.While during the winter the house tend to get more colder so you would use a lot more heater.While new windows can keep the temperature in mild conditions.  This will save you a lot of money in energy costs.

The next reason why we can consider new windows to be an investment is because it can help in raising the value of your homes.  When we do a home with our San Diego glass company we see first hand how it does this. Usually if a client tries to sell their home it improves the value of their home.The main reason for this is because people know that these windows have the ability to save on energy costs.And it also looks nicer.

So those are some of the benefits and great investments for your home.  One other way to spend money that is a great investment is a frameless glass shower.  With my San Diego frameless glass shower company whenever we install a glass shower we see immediate improvement in the home.  It improves in terms of looks plus value.

Hopefully you will realize that there things that are worth the money.  If you spend wisely it could be a very good investment.With the recession on our heels right now we must look for the right things to spend our money on.  Otherwise you could be throwing money away.
