Classic Exhibits Welcomes Display Supply & Lighting to Exhibit Design Search

5/19/2011 - Classic Exhibits Inc., a designer and manufacturer of portable, modular, and custom hybrid displays, announces the addition of Display Supply & Lighting’s (DS&L) products to Exhibit Design Search. Exhibit Design Search (EDS) is a comprehensive Web-based search tool for trade show displays and accessories, and includes over 1400 displays, 2000 photos, and 50 trade show articles. Most Classic Distributors have branded versions of EDS on their websites.

The two new galleries, Lighting and Exhibit and Electrical Supplies, supplement the existing 26 display galleries by adding a complete line of halogen, LED, fluorescent, and incandescent lights to the search database, along with display needs like Velcro? brand products, multi-outlet strips, and replacement cords.

DS&L joins four other vendors as strategic partners in Exhibit Design Search. Those partners include Eco-systems Sustainable Exhibits, Optima Graphics, Brumark Flooring, and Classic Exhibits. Each partner contributes to and manages galleries that reflect their expertise and product lines. Classic Distributors benefit from a “one-stop shop” on their website and can order products directly from each strategic partner.

According to Rob Cohen, Vice President of DS&L, “DS&L is excited to support the efforts of our partners to market solutions using technology in sustainable, cost-effective tools like EDS. Classic Exhibits has built an effective portal that allows distributors and their customers to easily learn more about, and select, products that meet their needs, and we are proud to be a part of that solution.”

Endora SC-1 Based on Corvette C6

Endora SC-1 Based on Corvette C6
A German company from Karlshuld has released the Endora SC-1, a sports car combining the past and the present. The SC1 is based on sixted generation Corvette technology.

In its body shape the SC-1 among other things looks about the concept cars once built in the fifties, sixties and early seventies. Modern and timely interpreted without being too ?retro“ the SC-1 has sharply patered front, holding high-intensity-discharge headlamps and LED-fog lights, a long engine hood, an upward designed belt line including a swing and a flowing rear end. The rear of the SC-1 houses two LED-taillights.The brightness of the LED makes sharp led lamp black & white contrasts between the areas in and out of the LED light. Below the beltline one can find a black painted diffusor that contains the back-up- and fog-lamps.

The coupé is equipped with a 6.2 liter Aluminum V8 engine producing 437hp and 424lb-ft of torque. The second step in matters of power would be another eight cylinder developing 512hp and 470lb-ft of torque out of its 7.0 Liter engine. The top-of-the-line model will feature a supercharged version of the 6.2 liter V8, that will deliver 647hp and 604lb-ft of torque to the rear axle. Every engine is mated to a six-speed-manual gearbox, while an automatic transmission with six gears and paddleshift is optional for the smallest V8.

The suspension of the SC-1 consists of cast aluminum upper and lower control arms, transverse-mounted composite leaf springs and monotube shock absorbers on all four ends. An electronic traction control is as standard as the Active Handling-system that monitors the driving dynamics. All Endora SC-1 will be delivered with 19 inch alloy wheels in the front and 20 inch rims in the back. As an option there will be 20 and 21 inch rims available.

The project looks promising, but it is now a waiting game until we see the first model on the road.

D.Light Launches An Ultra-Cheap Solar Lantern For Studying

D.Light Launches An Ultra-Cheap Solar Lantern For Studying
Have you ever tried studying in the dark? How about studying in the midst of noxious fumes? It's not the best educational environment.

D.LightA few years back, D.Light, a startup that began as a Stanford design school project, announced that it had created the world's cheapest solar lantern. For you, with your electric lights, this doesn't seem like a big deal. For everyone who relies on kerosene (and all of its associated fumes) for lighting, it's a life-changer. It's newest offering, the S1, is designed specifically to help students.

Quality is subjective, but we tend to believe the company, which is backed by investors including the Acumen Fund and Draper Fisher Jurvetson. The S1 costs less than $8 and offers up to four hours of LED-based lighting for a day's worth of charging. The device is rugged and, as you can see in the picture, very bright.

So who is going to use this thing? Anyone who needs cheap access to reliable lighting--including students. In one pilot in India, every single one of 275 students surveyed claimed that they studied regularly with the D.light S1. All of the students reported increased productivity, cleaner air in their homes, and reduced risk of fire (as compared to kerosene).


For many users, the flagship D.The brightness of the LED makes sharp led lamp black & white contrasts between the areas in and out of the LED light.light S250 will remain ideal--it combines a solar-powered light and cell-phone charger in one. But for anyone who just needs a light by which to study, they now have a student-friendly option.
