June 17, 2014
The Guard-Lite hybrid lighting and security system's unique self-powered design enables it to be installed at any location without wiring or an electrical permit.

Liberated Energy, Inc. (Marlton, NJ) has introduced its Guard-Lite hybrid lighting and security system. The system's unique self-powered design enables it to be installed at any location without wiring or an electrical permit. The Guard-Lite package includes the following components:

-- LED lighting, utilizing the latest energy efficient technology with 6000°Kelvin lamps and 60,000hrs+ lifetime. This configuration gives the best visibility with fewer lumens (3 LED lights/900 lumens each), notes the company.

-- An HD Wi-Fi security camera, featuring two way streaming audio and HD video capabilities. The camera features infrared night vision and motion sensing technology. User alerts can be sent via smartphone, PC, Mac, or tablet. Multiple cameras and users can be incorporated into the system.

-- A wind turbine. Fashioned from high-efficiency carbon fiber plastic, this unit produces 300 Watts at low wind speed, and is "quiet [and] maintenance-free with long lasting permanent magnet direct drive," according to the company.

-- A safe, reliable and efficient DC electrical power system with 24 hours of energy storage when there is no wind or solar.

-- A mounting pole made from maintenance-free carbon steel with a vinyl sleeve or powder coated. The dimensions are 4" x 4" square and 14' 4" in height with a security base to prevent tampering.

-- A solar panel capable of 100 watt output at 4.5 KWh/Day. This unit produces excess energy of approximately 3.9 KWh per day. That energy can be sold back to the grid or used for other lights, additional cameras, battery charging etc., notes the company.
