Carmanah Solar LED Parking-Lot Light Delivers Affordable Off-Grid Illumination

Carmanah Technologies has unveiled the newest design in solar LED lighting: the EverGENTM 1710 solar-powered area light. Designed as a compact stand-alone lighting alternative for off-grid parking lots and other municipal, commercial or industrial areas, the new EverGEN 1710 Light combines advanced motion-sensing capabilities with a range of energy saving operating profiles to ensure bright, reliable illumination whenever and wherever it's needed.

Featuring a dark-sky friendly LED fixture designed by industry-leading lighting manufacturer BetaLED, the EverGEN 1710 solar light incorporatings all of the elements of a complete solar power system in a compact, pole-mounted design developed by world-renowned global innovation firm frog Design.



According to Ted Lattimore, Carmanah CEO, Carmanah and frog design shared a common goal throughout the design process: to present a powerful new lighting alternative characterized by elegance of design and efficiency of operation. “Working closely with the team at frog, we settled on a unique design that reflects the essence of renewable energy: clean, simple, practical and efficient. Although it's a tough, high output, industrial-strength light, the quality finish and distinctive, contemporary styling would look great just about anywhere," said Lattimore Since 1969, frog design has pioneered some of the world's most groundbreaking designs for trendsetting companies such as Apple, Logitech, Microsoft and Sony.

The EverGEN 1710 solar light is scheduled for availability in early 2010.
