Donate NowOverviewThis project was inspired by the countless unnecessary single use plastic bags we received. Unable to find a premium reusable 'carry-everywhere' alternative that we could easily keep in our pocket, we decided to create the ultimate portable shopping bag ourselves. After 4 successful campaigns and 17k+ pledges fulfilled to backers all over the world, we're excited to share our latest project with you: Nanobag 3.0 The ultimate reusable shopping bagUltra-light, ultra-strong, ultra-foldable. You won't believe how small these premium shopping bags pack. These tiny shopping bags are convenient to carry in your pocket at all times, are super comfortable to carry, and easily carries 66lbs (30kg). Wouldn't it be nice to always have a comfortable bag handy?We consume somewhere between 1 trillion to 500 billion of plastic bags per year, and it’s an unnecessary waste. Reusable bags are great for the environment, but normally they’re bulky or poor quality. Nanobag 3.0 is a premium shopping bag so compact that you'll barely feel carrying it. The compact super-soft fabric easily folds into your pocket, and does away with impractical reusable shopping bags. Here are all the designs you can choose from.See our FAQ for info on sizes etc. For our add-on bags, you can add these to your order in the check-out. You need to buy at least one patterned Nanobag 3.0 to be able to add it to your order. The Nanobag 3.0 can easily carry 66lbs (30kgs) 18 liters of space should be enough to cover your daily needs The Nanobag 3.0 even fits in the watch pocket of your jeans. The soft fabric makes it easy to fit the Nanobag 3.0 back in the pouch. The reinforced handles distributes the weight evenly for comfortable use. The bag is so compact and soft that you won't notice even carrying it in your pocket. We’ll plant one tree per bag We're committed to making you a climate positive product. That means that we give more back to the planet than we take. We consider our bags environmentally conscious, as they contain less materials than other bags in their category and help reduce single use plastic bag consumption. This time we’re also stepping up our tree planting efforts further. For each bag we sell we’ll plant one mangrove tree with the Eden Reforestation Project. Mangrove trees are one of the most effective tools against climate change, and stores ten times more carbon than land based tree species. Mangroves take the carbon out of the air and bind it to the ground, thus preventing it from escaping into the atmosphere. One single mangrove tree can store around 1750lbs (800kg) in its 40 year lifespan. As an added bonus they prevent soil erosion and help sustain coastal ecosystems. We'll plant one Mangrove tree per bag sold with Eden Reforestation Projects. Commitment to excellenceWe're committed to creating high-quality products that you'll love. The bags are made with premium custom made fabrics and we've put in place a thorough quality-control and testing process to make sure you receive a great final product. We guarantee that your bags will be of excellent quality. ShippingWe offer FREE International registered shipping to backers pledging for 4 bags and above. All parcels will be shipped with tracked air mail. The team:Tiptop Things are a group of friends working together to infuse everyday items with premium quality and cutting edge technology. Nanobag 3.0 is our fifth Kickstarter campaign, and you might have seen our earlier Nanobag and Air Deck campaigns. Our mission is to make quality premium products that you will love. Why do we need your support?We can't do this without you. The funds we raise here will go towards producing our custom made fabric, printing and stitching the bags as well as logistics.

Donate NowOverview TAGIT™ Umbrella will always be neat, clean and dry as possible after the rain. You don't have to fumble with soaking and bulky umbrellas anymore. ✅ Unique Smart Patch Technology ✅ Auto or Manual Open / Close Available ✅ Ultra Water Repellent Fabrics ✅ Adjustable Magnetic Buckling System ✅ Strong UV / Wind Resistance —Don’t know how to deal with your soaking and dripping umbrellas after every use? —Tired of trying still failing to fold the umbrella nicely? —Remember the touch of those sloppy and soaked mess getting sticky in your hand? —Or those recurring awkward scenes when you’re holding the half-open and dripping umbrella in front of a building or about to get into a car. We understand how you want to hide up the messy, crumpled and ugly umbrellas or maybe just throw them away. TAGIT is here to end all the annoying moments. Time to farewell to all those obsolete creatures from last century. (* We added a clip filmed recently Tsinghua University how the AUTO version works to the end of the original comparison video. ) After use for storm or sun, TAGIT’s patent pending “TAGS” technology allows you to fold the umbrella and secure it in just a few seconds. The TAGIT umbrella would always be as tidy and perfect as the first time you open it. You no longer need to fiddle around with getting every part of the umbrella to fold correctly, as the “TAGS” technology (patent pending) allows the umbrella to automatically fold into the correct shape. Unlike normal umbrellas, the umbrella doesn’t fold into a disorganized mess. Every individual of the umbrella obeys a preset pattern and this pattern will be followed every time you collapse it. # The umbrella can be folded and secured in 5 seconds! TAGIT’s core lies in its patent pending Smart-Patch technology. When collapsing the umbrella, the Smart-Patch will guide the umbrella to fold into a preset position. By altering the parameters of the production equipment, the thickness and hardness of each patch can be different. Thus, the thickness and hardness of the whole patch fully controllable and precisely in accordance with the values we set. The significance of Smart-Patch technology lies in being able to control the reaction of each part of the umbrella when folded. With each specific design of the patch’s form, having the creases in different contraction and expansion of the patch to be controlled with relative freedom. We can even specify the folding reaction sequence across the umbrella. Additionally, through experimentation and research, we have optimized the ratios of raw materials to greatly improve the ductility and toughness of patches. “Snap!” We believe TAGIT’s magnetic buckling system is the best closing mechanism on the market, securing the umbrella to be clean, smooth, and hassle-free. Ordinary umbrella manufacturers may be stuck in the dark ages, still using velcro or button clasps that are neither durable nor adjustable. This makes it difficult to buckle the umbrella to the right position with limited strength. However, TAGIT lives in the future! TAGIT’s design accommodates everyone because the magnetic buckle’s position can be adjusted to adapt to anyone’s preference. The addition of the Smart-Patch effectively protects the umbrella fabric so that it neither deform nor wrinkle. This is the first time that an umbrella can truly be as smooth as a lake at dawn. In order to combat wrinkle issues as much as possible, ordinary umbrellas can only choose nylon, PG, polyester, and other umbrella fabrics with a certain hardness. The possible umbrella materials are almost limitless due to the umbrella fabric manufacturing process developed by TAGIT which can process various high-grade materials into umbrella fabrics. DuPont Tyvek, 3M reflective cloth, conductive cloth, leather, and even lace. You name it, we can use it. And thanks to the Smart-Patch, they’re all wrinkle free. What you end up getting is an eye-catching, functional work of art. We have been through a lot of difficult time on our journey to develop TAGIT. For three years it felt like a bitterly cold winter that we thought we may never see the end of. But we did, so to commemorate that, we used fabric found on the best down jackets to create the umbrella for Kickstarter. We hope that our special TAGIT umbrella will ‘keep you warm’ through whatever hardships you are experiencing. # We developed 8 colors for the first batch of umbrellas. *The 3M Scotchlite Reflective Fabrics looks grey under normal circumstances and will become shining white when exposed to bright light. On rainy or snowy days, the last thing you want to do is fumble with a soaked and bulky umbrella. Though you really don't want hold it in your hands, you get nowhere else to hide it. It is very likely that your shoes will be sloshing with water once your soaked umbrella slowly drips on your feet while sitting on the subway, standing or walking elsewhere. We used fabric found in the best down jackets for TAGIT's first batch of umbrellas. The down jacket fabric alone has excellent water and wind resistance capabilities. Through hundreds of combinations and tests on this material, we found one of the best waterproofing agents, the Teflon EcoElite™, to put on top of this umbrella fabric and formed a hydrophobic coating to the surface of the umbrella. Teflon EcoElite™ is the first renewably-sourced, non-fluorinated fabric treatment for durable water-repellency and is manufactured with 60% renewably-sourced raw materials. It overcomes the disadvantage that traditional Teflon may harm the environment. Although TAGIT can use a wide range of fabrics, Teflon coatings can be adapted for use on various fabrics selected by TAGIT, thus allowing TAGIT to maintain the strongest water resistance on the market. Recall for a second the previous umbrellas you have used, after a brief time in the rain, they are wet, dripping everywhere, and have water pooled all over them. TAGIT only requires two shakes and the raindrops are gone. You can simply put it in your bag or take it into the car without any hazitation. After testing hundreds of materials for making the Smart-Patch, we found an ideal match to our design, a UV-absorbing material commonly used as a coating by the military to protect optical components and fighter planes. Due to the superior materials used to make the Smart-Patch, its ultraviolet absorption rate reaches up to 90%, which greatly enhances the effectiveness of TAGIT as a protection against the sun. Under the double layers of the Smart-Patch, TAGIT's UV resistance is as high as UPF60+ UVA<3%. The specially formulated Smart-Patch has superior ductility and toughness, and after being attached to the umbrella fabric with a special process, the durability of the umbrella fabric is greatly enhanced. And did we mention the umbrella’s frame is made out of 7075 aluminum alloy, an aluminum alloy that has excellent mechanical properties. It shows high strength and toughness, good ductility and good resistance to fatigue. With that being said, TAGIT's wind resistance is much stronger than ordinary folding umbrellas.

Donate NowUsing our expertise and resources in the medical and textile industries, we aim to help flatten the pandemic curve by initially providing 100,000 face masks to the general public and our frontline workers for protection against COVID-19. Due to the urgent need for masks, we will be running multiple short campaigns. This will facilitate faster production and distribution timelines and eliminate idle stock. Our first campaign will be targeting $100,000 in 15 days. Your contribution will help us secure a needed shipment of N95/ KN95 Medical masks from an approved supplier as well as buy the raw materials for the fabric face masks. We should all do our part to flatten the curve by wearing a fabric mask. We are selling each mask at cost so that the mask is accessible to as many people as possible. When you purchase your own mask, you will also be donating a medical-grade N95/ KN95/ surgical mask to one of our frontline heroes (Healthcare professionals and Essential workers). You can recommend a hospital in need in the indiegogo comments section. Due to the severe lack of essential Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) in hospitals and the recent recommendation from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) advising the general public to wear cloths masks in public, a group of our MIT Sloan Executive MBA classmates pooled our expertise and resources in order to help. The leader of the team, Dr. Ahmed Mady’s family, owns a textile manufacturing factory where they have dedicated two production lines to manufacture face masks at cost and have a production capacity of approximately 50,000 masks per week. They have also secured three suppliers who can provide more than 100,000 N95 and KN95 FDA approved, CDC certified masks for our frontline workers. The N95/ KN95 masks - and the materials they're made from - are in extremely short supply right now. So, it's critical that we reserve them for those who need them most, medical professionals. For the general public, we designed a stylish face mask that is manufactured from cotton blend/100% cotton fabric with an embedded filter. The mask will be comfortable, washable and reusable for many times. These masks will achieve more than 70% protection efficacy based on published data from University of Cambridge. A new scientific rationale has indicated that wearing a fabric facemask creates a barrier that blocks projectile droplets during coughing, which may substantially reduce the production rate R, to an extent that may be comparable to social distancing and washing hands. This would then double the effect of mitigation in “flattening the curve”. The fabric masks will come in different colors and patterns for adults and children.

Donate NowOverviewWith your help, I was hoping that I would find angel investors who would believe in me & my dream to be one of the trailblazers in this industry. Of course food trucks are a thing. But truck boutiques are fairly new. So here I am. Let's do this!Let me share with you my story...Hello, my name is Roberta, but everyone calls me Bobbie.It's a pleasure to meet you...Like others, I came from a not so great background. Growing up as a ARMY brat, I lived in 13 states and two countries. It was a bit hard during my childhood because I jumped from school to school, then I lived on the streets as a young skate punk from the age 13. Barely having any friends, I had been struggling to find myself ever since.I can say I am a strong woman now because of the hardships and obstacles I had to go through. But I always had hope in my heart. There were times in my life when I made bad decisions due to not having a mentor growing up, to teach me the values of life and my self-worth. What helped me get through everything was making jewelry and my love for music. They're my passions. I was lucky to find love unconditionally and acceptance at the age of 42. He gave me the confidence to pursue my dreams. Yes... I was lost for that long.He believed in me and my vision and helped me launch my business. Fast forward two years, the only person who really and truly believed in me, is now my husband. I love him so much, he's my best friend.I am the proud owner of Yoly Jewelry and I want to expand my business to own a boutique truck. It's time for me to take my business to the next level and to pursue my dream to own a store on wheels. It's so very hard to catch up and save with the price of living in the Bay Area. The reason I am running this campaign is because of limited real-estate, and skyrocketing rental prices. I cannot move out of the area since I am my father-in-law's care taker. I am looking for good-hearted supporters who have been there before, and had others give them a chance in life; who would understand and pay it forward to another good person. I cannot express the magnitude of the gratitude I feel, if you were to support me with my dream. I am a trailblazer of a women-owned small business, especially in this field.Just give me that chance. What We Need & What You GetLet me explain my business for you to understand, and how much I will need and for what. $10,000 would reach my goal of building and designing my mobile boutique on wheels. Let me brake it down.I have saved since last summer $2000 from the online sales and fairs.~Buying a used trailer long enough to fill my merchandise and stock, will cost me between $7000-$8000~Construction to gut everything out and fix it with shelves and props and lighting will be around $2000~to paint and make sure the tires are good and no leaks from the roof will be a extra $2000~I have a large truck to tow where I would need to set up and I can get insurance for what is needed. The perks is exciting because I can travel anywhere and everywhere on the weekends and I wont have to leave my little fur baby at home. Fairs, beaches, anywhere that has food courts and set up.Every person who supports this campaign, and/or orders a perk from my list, will get a year of 10% off of anything in my store online or in person. It will be a "V.I.P." card which has a code on it for online shopping or you can bring the card in person and you will automatically get the 10% off. If for some reason if I do not reach my goal. I can promise you, I will not quit. I will safe-keep that investment and I will work hard at every fair I can get into, and save up and still buy my dream truck, It might take longer... but thats life. At least I tried. The ImpactYour contribution will make a difference because I am a nonstop worker until I archive my goal, so your investment will not be in vain. This project is very valuable to me, because I want something that makes me feel important and because I believe in hope and believe that anything is possible and anyone can achieve anything.I made a pair of skull aviators sunglasses and sold of them for years. I had a picture emailed to me recently showing, Slash, from the band Guns and Roses wearing the pair of aviators I personally made. It felt good to know that Icons are wearing my art. Risks & ChallengesThe only obstacle I may face to achieving my goal is if no one believed in me or my dream. I wrote down a complete business plans for myself and the future, and I know nothing can go wrong if I had the best support. I'm qualified to overcome any hurdle because I don't believe in quitting. I will also pay it forward. This can help the women in our community in knowing there are good people out there, who can and *will* support women-owned businesses, and I personally love to share my knowledge and experiances with young entrepreneurs as well. Other Ways You Can HelpPlease if you love my story, and you cannot donate, will you take the time to share my campaign in thoughts of helping me reach my goal? Please get the word out if you can. Make some noise! Thank you so much for your time and support.

Donate NowCome join us, and let's open the doors of Love Lab Studio! Our unique and sweet children's art studio is located in sweet Portland, Maine. We are raising community funds to cover our renovation costs and to make a safe, welcoming and beautiful creative space. Join our Love Lab tribe! Love Lab Studio is about taking action to co-create a better + more just world for all. Join us! A Children's Art Studio Love Lab Studio is about taking action, with children and community, to co-create a better + more just world for all. That sounds utopian, but we think that experimenting, with imagination, intention, and reflection, to co-create a better world is part of our work as human beings. And this starts with a children's studio. Our studio is founded by artist Christina Bechstein (with awesome neighbors + collaborators) to support us all to make conscious creativity happen with simple materials, strategies, projects and tools that are good for us AND the environment. Our bright new space will be thoughtfully curated for the needs of the children. We are located in a mixed residential and retail neighborhood in the West End of Portland, at the edge of a beautiful park and playground. We will support the tending of trees and plants at a nearby food forest, and plan to eventually harvest plums and make jam together! Love Lab Studio: What Will We Do? Everything we do centers the art studio as both a place and an idea of creativity and imagination.One of our inspirations is the work of Detroit arts leader Josephine Herrald Love, who shared with us that "in art, allow the child to teach you about them - you are the learner, they are the teacher.” Another is the child-centered and creative pedagogy developed in Reggio Emilia, Italy by Loris Malaguzzi. This places the “atelier” or art studio in the center of the learning environment as a collaborative element in the creation of projects and learning. In summer 2018 our work is to launch the studio & the community public art clay tile project. For fall 2018, programming includes: 1. Children's art workshops. Weekly + seasonal art workshops for children. Each workshop will incorporate natural materials and creative prompts, and respond to themes connected to the greater world around us, contemporary artists, nature and more. 2. Saplings Studio. A creative, part-time learning + afterschool program. Co-created by a skilled teacher collaborative and offers hands-on learning in a joyful and playful atmosphere. Children engage in creative exploration of art, integrated reading and writing, and math skill development based in problem-solving. They learn in nature, in the community, and with each other. We value: the whole child through embodiment, diversity and inclusion within a caring community; the child as poet, communicator + participant through language development; the child as co-creator with project-based and individual learning; the child as artist through arts, creativity + imagination; and the child as community member, global & ecological citizen through community projects. 3. Community projects. The studio will offer monthly First Friday art exhibitions that focus on work by children and the community. We'll also be collaborating with organizations, community members and neighbors on specific projects. Some of the projects we partner with and collaborate on currently include: The Portland Lantern Walk, a creative community and public art series that culminates in a large-scale community event in Deering Oaks Park, with Annie Leahy and Friends of Deering Oaks Park. Sister Makings is a group that meets regularly to co-create space for local and new neighbor sisters and their children to gather around conversation, food, service, gardening and craft. Community partners include Heartfelt School and Cultivating Community. Opening The Doors: What's Needed There are basic renovation costs to get the studio up and running! We are grateful for the skilled design and construction support of theBarrett Made team in Portland, Maine. Dreaming up hanging systems and curtain walls to create a flexible creative community and exhibition space has been the vision of our friendRonit Eisenbach. Our friend and local designer Jennifer Muller has graced us with our joyful new logo and sweet design perks. Local artists from Better Letter will paint our sweet sign, and local artists will sew cushions for our sitting + drawing window nooks. Our creative building + musician friends at Bondeko will be installing and co-creating our community art tile wall and sink area, amongst other creative work.NATURAL AS WE CAN We work to be as natural, sustainable, recycled, mindful and healthy as we can be with all the renovations and materials. NUTS + BOLTS We currently need to raise $20,000 to support the renovation of the space! The costs that will be covered in this amount in addition to permitting and design fees include the following: Drawing + reading + visiting window nooks Cozy & inviting window seating for children and community with bright and soft cushions. Simple birch plywood seats with a plexi guard at the window will provide protection for little ones. Art + tool hanging Giant sheets of homasote will be installed on walls with screws + washers and painted, to hold art and supporting sound absorption. Additional hanging systems influenced by the creative wisdom of the Shaker community will layer in pegs for hanging as needed. Doors Safe, dry and warm front door and bathroom door with threshold (ADA compliant). Tracks for curtains + track lighting Lighting for space and tracks for felt and voile curtains to divide and create a flexible and gorgeous working space. Community clay wall + washing basin A long, narrow 6-foot farm sink will allow children to wash brushes and hands together. Above the washing sink will be a gorgeous community public art mosaic wall of small handmade clay tiles, each covered with marks made by children from Portland’s parks, food forests and urban gardens.

Donate NowExperience Convenience Without the Bulk Hello! I’m Patrick, inventor of SleekStrip. We spend so much time on our phones watching content and taking photos, it’s no wonder that phone stands and grips have become so popular. But why do they have to be so bulky?! After searching far and wide for a phone stand/grip that wasn’t awkward looking, I decided to take matters into my own hands. I knew there had to be a better way, especially since the bulkiness of most stands compromises your phone’s ability to charge wirelessly or fit into a car mount. Introducing: The SleekStrip SleekStrip is a breakthrough in phone stand technology! It’s the world’s thinnest phone stand and grip, so it doesn’t make your phone look bulky like most phone stands. SleekStrip is made of premium materials and tested for durability. Its unique patent-pending design features flexible metal with soft rubber coating for a comfortable grip. Featured on: Grip The SleekStrip grip ensures your phone will never slip out of your hands again. Stand The SleekStrip also acts as a stand with two different angles! Thin & Sleek Design Tremendous functionality without the bulk & design compromise. Strength Don't let the the thinness of SleekStrip fool you. It's stronger than it looks. Premium Materials, Comfort & Durability You might think that SleekStrip’s slim design would sacrifice its durability, but that’s simply not true. Even though SleekStrip is incredibly thin, it’s built with strong, durable materials that have been tested to ensure long-lasting durability, and it has a soft rubber coating that feels smooth to the touch. Flexible Positioning View your screen from multiple angles with a natural hand grip. Wireless Charging Compatible Want to wirelessly charge your phone? SleekStrip won't stop you. Works on Car Mounts SleekStrip is compatible with your car mount. How It Works SleekStrip Makes Your Phone Look Even Better Today’s smartphones are so beautifully designed, there’s no reason your phone stand/grip should compromise that. SleekStrip’s sleek yet humble aesthetic is designed to complement the quality and style of your phone. Colour Combinations Designs that go well with any phone case. Base: Black, Chrome, or Gold Strip: Matte Black, White Marble, or Rainbow In the Package We Need Your Support Do you want a better phone stand/grip as much as we do? Help us bring this much-needed product to market! The funding we receive through this campaign will help us pay for the tooling and manufacturing costs required to make SleekStrip a reality. If you’re ready for a phone stand/grip that looks great and makes watching content on your phone and taking photos easier than ever, please make a pledge to our campaign! In addition to your pledge, you can also help us spread the word by sharing this campaign. We appreciate your support! Risks At this point, production-ready samples have been built and tested to validate the design and mechanism, and our manufacturing partner has also validated the feasibility of production at a viable cost. Please note that there could be minor changes and tweaks to the product design after the tooling is made and the product samples are tested. We will try our absolute best to ensure everyone receives the colour of their choice. However, in the event that the colour chosen is no longer available, those who have pledged earlier will have higher priority. If your colour selection is no longer available, you will be contacted and asked to select another colour option. Overall, if the funding goal is reached and the project can move to the next step, the risk of the SleekStrip not reaching the hands of our customers is very small.
Donate NowOverview How often do you stand in front of the dried-up remains of your plants and wonder what went wrong? Too much water? Too little? Wrong spot? Just like us humans, plants are living and sentient beings. It can be hard to understand exactly what they need and to decrypt all those silent messages they send us. The key to helping our plants survive and thrive without speaking the same language? It’s all about finding smarter, deeper ways to connect. This is why we developed the FYTA Beam. The FYTA Beam is a small sensor that connects your plants with your smartphone so you know when they need more water, fertilizer, or a different ambience. How does the FYTA Beam work? The FYTA Beam measures critical factors for a plant’s wellbeing, including - soil moisture - nutrition levels - light intensity and - temperature. Just insert it into the soil next to your plant and install the FYTA app – intelligent insights will be sent your way instantly via Bluetooth. The FYTA Beam will seamlessly monitor the plant’s living conditions to ensure that it stays within the correct limits for the type of plant that you have. And when it’s time for action, you’ll get a simple notification on you App. No more guess work, lots more “it works!”. If you have several plants, you can connect several FYTA Beams via Bluetooth with each other to create a network of up to 100m transmission range. The FYTA Beam: better than smart We couldn’t find a smart sensor that worked the way we wanted it to. Many existing sensors only measure one or two important parameters, have little design functionality, or are so badly designed that they look like they crash-landed from Planet Fugly. We wanted to do a better job! This is what makes our FYTA Beam different from other plant sensors: - Discrete: The FYTA Beam is small and has a reflective glass casing. It almost disappears in your planter. - Eco-friendly: It’s powered by a built-in solar cell that extends the life of the CR battery every day. All components are detachable so they can be recycled separately. - Accurate: It measures voltage across the entire length of its stainless-steel probes. This way it collects more data and calculates highly reliable values. - Adjustable: Have large plants? No problem. The probes are detachable and will be available in different lengths. - Customizable: Fancy a different feel? There will be different casing colors and designs available soon. - Good value: Did you know that many of our houseplants could easily outlast us if they received proper care? The FYTA Beam probably costs as little as your phone case - and is packed with really smart technology that will make your plants last longer. The FYTA App: more than a messenger The FYTA App does more than just check on your plants and nudge you in the right direction – it digs up a whole host of smart insights to help your relationship flourish in new ways: - Plant identification: Do you know what plants you actually have? No? Well, the app is here to help you identify them! - The FYTA plant library: Our plant library includes plant care instructions for all common houseplants. It keeps all plant information handy and in one place. Simple. - Virtual Garden: Create personal profiles for your plants and organize them in a virtual garden. Perfect if you have many to look after! - Customized notifications: Let your plants nudge you whenever they need something or simply choose how often you’d like to hear from your plants. - Tutorials: Enjoy fun tutorials that show you how to take better care of your plants. You’ll even learn how to make plant babies. Yes, you read that right. All of these features come together to help you do one spectacular thing: better understand your plants and eventually connect with them device-free. The FYTA Base: check on your plants while you’re away Leaving your beloved plants behind? Don’t fret. With the FYTA Base, it’s easy to check in on them while you’re away and share care instructions with a friend or neighbor, for instance via email. The FYTA Base is a WiFi hub that - connects all of your FYTA Beams to your home WiFi network, extending their range way further. - helps you manage multiple sensors with greater ease and security. - constantly monitors all FYTA Beams and uploads data to a secure cloud, allowing you to access critical insights whenever, wherever. - provides better notification and sharing options through the FYTA App. Prototyping We’ve been working for over 12 months on creating the FYTA eco-system: The FYTA Beam, The FYTA Base, the App and the cloud back-end. Developing the FYTA Beam was fun but challenging. A few things were straight-forward such as building an NTC-Thermistor into the microcontroller to measure temperature. In order to measure light intensity, we chose to use the current generated by a solar cell instead a photoiode ( which is commonly used). This approach helps to to prolong battery life. The most challenging part was to develop a capacitive soil moisture sensor which also measures the salinity of the soil. Finally, we had to figure out how to have the sensors interact in a Bluetooth Mesh Network. Over time we built several generations of sensors to test different aspects of the electronics and the Bluetooth communication. The following picture shows several of our prototypes: Eventually, over the course of months and three generations of prototypes, the FYTA Beam became what it is today. In this video, our engineer Jacob is demonstrating the basic functionality of the sensor within a Mesh network with the help of a third party Bluetooth application. Another important part of the process was the parameter calibration which we did with the help of a solar simulator (for light intensity). To calibrate the soil parameter, we used an array of soil samples with fixed values for moisture and salinity to derive the interdependency of both parameters. Finally, we compared our results with measurements taken with highly sensitive, professional measurement devices. Current Status and Next Steps Hardware development and programming is now complete. We have visited several manufactures in China and entered into an early stage cooperation with an experienced high-quality producer. We have a demo version of the App and are now working on connecting the devices to the FYTA App and FYTA server (about 50% done). We are aiming at completing this stage by end-July to have sufficient time for further testing and calibrations before we order the first batch of products. Why Indiegogo? We have sufficient funds to complete the development process of the FYTA Beam. We have successfully collected funds on Kickstarter to finance the tools required for mass production with our manufacturing partner and run a test production of the alpha units. We are now taking pre-orders for the first production batch which we like to deliver to a dedicated group of early adopters that help us · to improve the FYTA Beam eco-system with the help of your feedback. · to connect people to plants all over the world Perks Our perks include the following products: The FYTA Beam System The FYTA Beam System consists of the FYTA Beam, the FYTA App and the optional FYTA Base. Our rewards include single Beams, as well as three different bundles (Plant Lover, Plant Addict, and Plant Nerd) to meet different needs. Soil pH Test Kit Plants need to sit in the right potting mix to to grow and thrive. If your plants sits in wrong or poor quality soil, even the most accurate measurements and best care schedule won't prevent your plant from stunting. This is why each perk will come with a complimentary soil pH test kit. This test kit will help you to determine whether your plant needs different soil. The FYTA App will lead you through the process and advise you.

Donate NowOverviewPirool Energy has been working to bring sustainable jobs to villages in Kumaon, in rural Himalayan India, since 2015, and we need your help to bring our business to launch. Our goal is to provide jobs and empower women through job creation while bolstering the local ecosystem through bio-charcoal production. Help us with funding to refine the technology and showcase our product in preparing to launch this venture!Short SummaryWe are the Pirool Energy team, a couple of guys who are passionate about using technology to benefit lives in tangible ways. We started this project for our Master's thesis project at TU Delft in the Netherlands, focusing on producing biofuel from pine needles in the Himalayan mountains of northern India, where jobs are scarce, women have few opportunities, and families struggle to stay together. We want to provide income opportunities for locals, especially women, and allow people to stay and build community in the mountains. Join us in impacting lives there!What We Need We are asking for a total of $17,500 (US), and this will spur us on toward commercialization of our charcoal production enterprise. We have been investing in this project since 2014, and now the biggest hurdle is refining our production process and technology to make the business viable, and to demonstrate our product to the market.The first portion of the money raised ($9,500) will go to cover expenses from the Pilot Project we carried out in May of last year, which gave such promising results, but left a lot unfinished. Specifically, the money will go to payback our partner Students4Sustainability who supported us in the project.The second portion of the money ($8,000) will fuel our research and development, namely in refining our production process and demonstrating our product to potential customers. We have explored the market substantially already, but now we need to go an show our product and win customers over.The ImpactImagine with us a life where you have minimal options for income in the place you call home. You have grown up here, your roots are here, your family is here, but it is becoming more and more difficult to pay for basic needs because there simply isn't work to find.As the sole bread winner of your family, you are faced with two options: move to the city in search for work, or try to make do in the mountains. The cities are unknown, distant, disconnected from your community, overcrowded, and unsanitary, but might over a meager job. The mountains have few schools, poor roads and amenities, and dwindling job prospects, but they are home. So what do you do?Millions of rural Indians take the leap of faith, and migrate to cities to support their families back at home in underpaying jobs. Those who stay struggle for income and employment opportunities in their hometowns, or families splitting up to survive. We want to provide economic opportunities in mountain villages, while conserving the environment and preserving the natural beauty.ChallengesAs said above, there are hurdles to get past. We need to refine our product and production process to make the business viable. There is promise, but it will take work and your support to get to the point of sustainable charcoal production. Also, we need to work to convince customers that we have a good product. As with anything, proving a new product isn't easy, and we need to go to the customers with our refined product to show them it's value.Thankfully, we are in a good spot to handle these obstacles. We are collaborating with pioneers in the field of biofuels, and we are being coached by entrepreneurs who know the region deeply. We already are leveraging our contacts to showcase to some of the most prestigious hotels in India. But we need your help.How You Can Be a Part & What you GetJoin us! Any contribution you can make will push this venture forward. Check out the perks we have put together, to say thanks for being willing to partner with us. We are even featuring some of the finest products from the Kumaon region from some of our awesome partners there. Have a look!And if you can't give, we get it. But we still need you to get the word out - pass this on to your friends, family, coworkers, and random strangers! We appreciate your willingness. Thank you so much for your help!!A Note on PerksWe are very excited to bring these perks to you. Our partners source some of the finest materials from Kumaon, the exact region we are also working, and we know you will enjoy them as well. However, due to logistics, the final products are coming from various locations, and thus in order to keep shipping costs reasonable, we are not offering all perks in all countries. However, if there is a particular perk you may want or would like to suggest we offer, let us know, and we will do what we can. Lastly, please give 2-4 weeks (10-20 business days) after the campaign has ended for fulfillment of the perks. Thanks for your support!!
Donate NowOverviewAt the age of 16, I built a gasifier I named the Dross to Gas, or as I now call the DRS2Ch4. However, gasification requires heat like plasma, which still gives off emissions as far as I know to this day. Now we know, anaerobic microorganisms produce useful gas that burns clean, the cleanest energy source other than solar electricity. And now with our knowledge of fuel cells it may be the cleanest energy source out there.Just brieflyMy name is Brian Brechner, as a teenager I had a concept that turned into a dream, and then into passion! My dream was to use trash for renewable energy without harmful emissions. The bottom line is this; our investors and backers want to know how many Americans truly care about clean energy? So I am asking people for help, I need a team, and we need you.We need team players to share this campaign with friends and family.We need team leaders that are willing to find team players.Maybe you have built an anaerobic digester, or you own one. We could share experiences.We want to know what you want. Do you boon-dock full time or live in a tiny house? Are you looking for a place to park for a few months or years, or just a few days with free facilities?We need your input, in order to fill your needsWe are looking to buy land along historic route 66 and near state parks. Places where entrepreneurs chose to live and work. We want to bring back free enterprise.These parks or communities would be for travelers that need fuel or facilities.A lot like the original route 66, we'll need gift shops and cafes, EV charging stations.Family friendly places to stop or spend a few nights before moving on.Free Enterprise Bringing back free enterprise is possible again, because the cost of traveling will be much lower. We have the technology to produce energy that will NOT run out and is cheap to produce.Imagine taking the time to visit historic route 66 without the high cost of an overnight stay.I remember when I worked at my father's Texaco service station, before the oil holdings in June of 1973. Gas was cheap and travelers took their time to shop and see the sights. There were full service stations and places to stop all along the highways. Let's start rebuilding route 66, and thus primarily rebuild America!Risks & ChallengesYes of course there are risks.

This generator uses no gas, oil, sun, batteries, wind, diesel fuel, it only uses rare earth magnets to generate power. This means once you get your unit take it out of the box and it is ready to go. We have a 3 year warranty on our product for your peace of mind, who else can say that? Short Summary Tim Slavings, the inventor of the U-Plug Green portable generator, has been involved in the energy and electronics industries for more than forty years. He has handled electronic equipment contracts for airports and other secured locations throughout the country.In the energy industry, he has developed more efficient wind and solar energy systems that he marketed through one of his previous companies. He has been developing the concept, plans, designs and prototypes of the U-Plug Green generator for the last twenty years. We successfully tested and demonstrated a prototype of the U-Plug for two years. The current production model went through independent testing in February and March, 2015 at an energy power testing facility in the State of Missouri. We are bringing this generator to the public market to help offset the use of fossil fuels, and to help clean the air for everyone. Our generator will save people money, and provide power in any natural disaster, and is also the perfect system for homes to be totally off-grid.This generator is only 24 inches tall, 6 inches in diameter, produces 115 volts at 17.3 amps of power, and weighs only 20 pounds. That is truly a powerful generator in a compact size.When you contribute to our campaign you will be helping to save our natural resources, while cleaning our air, saving our precious water, and making the world a better place for everyone. How it works We developed a simplified planetary gear system with multiple shafts that have our magnets in them. Each magnet can pick up over 2500 pounds each. There are several magnets per shaft, and when they are in the proper position they begin to spin. This will cause a push pull type of effect that has worked quite well for over 2 1/2 years. Then we surround the unit with the field coils to generate the power.We cannot give to much more info without divulging our secrets, so we have kept this explanation as simple as it is.The U-Plug Green system will generate between 17.25 amps and 19.25 amps. and is controlled by 2 circuit boards located at the top of the unit. We have set the unit at 2000 watts maximum for reliability. The circuit boards control the speed, amperage, and the output wattage so that the coils are not damaged. Other safety devices inside the unit are provided in case water gets inside, and to protect it from overheating.Maximum operating temp, Fahrenheit, is 125 degrees and so far we have found that the unit will operate at -60 degrees with no problems.When you purchase our product it comes with a 3 year warranty. Timeline of progressWhat We Need & What You GetWe are seeking $250,000 for building space, raw materials, and additional workers. We know that this only begins our journey together. We also know that the U-Plug Green Generator will attract additional interest and additional funding once you begin to envision how the generator will help you, your friends and family. A generator that can sit inside your home, at your camp site, or work site, while making virtually no noise, is a generator you will love to own. In turn, your friends and family will love to own one for themselves, and will help us sell many more units.Should as few as 1500 people choose to buy their own unit from this campaign, we will have raised all the funds necessary to complete our factory, order the raw materials, train the workers, and begin production, without seeking outside funding. From those 1500 people, we would raise $2,242,500, allowing us to reach full production more quickly than we have anticipated. We would then be able to make decisions that impact the way we can produce more units. Should you as a contributor purchase one of these units and then purchase a grid-tie unit from the internet, you would be able to use your generator to make your electric meter run backwards. Yes, it will go backwards at times, and the power company will have to pay you for your power. As you can see, your unit will pay for itself many times and in many ways, as you use your U-Plug Green generator. We have special pricing of $1,495.00 on the U-Plug Green generator for those who order during this campaign only. After this campaign, the price will be $1,795.00 each. That is an instant savings of $300.00 for everyone who orders now.There are also dealership pricing packages for those who want to help us and grow your business at the same time. Our 10 pack or more generator packages allow our subscribers to become distributors. As distributors, we will work with you to help you be successful in retailing the U-Plug Green generators. In accordance with that goal, there will be semi-annual reviews to evaluate the performance of our distributors, making recommendations and changes as needed.Should we not reach our goal, we will continue to build 1 unit for one person, one household, one business, one community at a time. We believe in those who see this as a necessary product which is needed and wanted worldwide, so every dollar we receive will go to bring this generator to each of you. Every person that contributes to this campaign will receive a gift certificate for $100.00 off the MSRP, simply email us your address and we will send you one for future use.The ImpactYou, as one of our contributors, will have peace of mind knowing you have a generator which can provide clean power in all situations you will encounter. You will also be on the forefront of green energy production, which will lead to cleaner air and water for our world. You will feel comfortable and confident that you will be helping to reduce dangerous and harmful pollutants. Risks & ChallengesWe have been working on the U-Plug Green generator for several years. The result, as you can see in the videos, are generators ready for mass production. We have achieved a continuous running, portable generator where all others have failed. However, this is not perpetual motion; the generator will eventually slow down and stop producing electricity in about 20 years when there is to much magnetic loss. We have assembled a team of business professionals for every stage of our project, including accountants, attorneys, risk management advisors, electrical technicians, machinists, state business managers, and skilled laborers. Other Ways You Can HelpBe sure to tell your friends about this clean new generator, we are grateful for your help. You can spread the word on Facebook or anywhere you may go.Thank you,Tim SlavingsU-Plug Products L.L.C.
Donate NowOver 100 Million disposable plastic air filters end up in landfills every single year and continue to rise due to the increased demand for air purifiers.We developed the world's first smart air purifier that uses 100% Biodegradable Air Filters made simply from activated bamboo charcoal and hemp. It works with your plant to deliver cleaner fresher air to your home or office. In addition, Urbie Air can automatically self-water your plant when it's thirsty.It's the perfect eco-system for every indoor space! Urbie Air cleans the air of impurities and VOCs through an ecofriendly biofiltration process. As an added bonus, it also recycles the water from humidity to accurately auto self-water your plant when it's thirsty, thus keeping your plant healthy for maximum oxygen production. With the help of two powerful yet discrete fans, polluted air is sucked in and filtered with the help of microorganisms living in the plant's soil that break down pollutants into safer compounds. We've also added Activated Eco-friendly Carbon Filters that filter even smaller pollutants <2.5μ also known as Volatile Organic Compounds. Urbie Air also removes excess humidity from your room, turns it into condensation that waters your plant, and reproduces cleaner, fresher air! Monitor your home air quality in real time from absolutely anywhere when you sync with the Urbie Air app. Control Urbie Air remotely and watch how your air is being purified. The app even displays the water tank levels, plant watering frequency, humidity levels, and VOC's. We've also added Bluetooth to make the initial setup go smooth and easy! Urbie Air uses powerful fans that are designed to yield the maximum airflow to your plant. This technique empowers your plant to produce the most amount of oxygen while eliminating high concentrates of CO2 and other harmful gases. Reports of experiments held by NASA Office of Commercial Programs- Johnson Space Station, and the Associated Landscape Contractors of America (ALCA) with different potted plants mixed with activated charcoal filter. When the air gets pulled through the soil via powerful fans, it gets cleaned via physical, chemical and biological processes. The soil, in addition to its physical filtration capacity, also contains important biota that helps transform and decompose chemicals and other contaminants, thus helping produce cleaner and fresher air back into your home. Switch ON Urbie Air using your phone app and set your local time so that by default it will water your plant during day time. During dry season, you will receive a notification when the water tank level is low informing you to manually fill up the water tank so the self-watering feature resumes. We’ve chosen some of the best color combinations. The vibrant rose creates a sense of energy and playfulness. The Pearl provides a dose of neatness that will blend in well with any decor. And our Classic Shadow color is our favorite (one shown in our video), it's timeless with a modern edge, creating a setting that feels distinctly personal. How it all began As a product designer and engineer living in Paris, it's become harder to escape the city pollution and simply enjoy a glass of wine in my home without sneezing a gazillion times. I created Urbie Air simply because I am tired of allergies, pollution, high humidity and my plants dying all the time. So, I thought why not combine the natural powers of plants with technology to create a smart self-watering dehumidifier and air purifier that can tackle pollution from many different angles! Manufacturing, quality control and time delivery After spending two years in R&D, testing and developing prototypes and finding the right balance between design and practicality, we're now ready to take Urbie to production stage. We've sourced factories, studied the logistics of fulfillment centres, and have our assembly line and engineers ready, Thank You This crowdfunding campaign will help us continue on our mission to design and develop urban devices that promote health and well-being. We owe our existence to our backers who believe in our core values and who want to be part of a Positive Social Impact company that aims to bridge the gap between urban and rural worlds. Risks and challenges We have a highly qualified team of engineers and have partnered up with leading manufacturing and fulfillment companies around the world. With your support, we will be able to bring Urbie to life. We're completely prepared to bring Urbie to every household, and we have the right team on standby, are ready to start pouring their hearts into this project.If anything comes along the way, you'll be the first to know. We will constantly update you and keep you informed of any issues or complications that we might face, some of which might be out of our control.
Donate NowEco-Visionaries, Self-building Affordable Homes from Wood, Straw, Earth, Tyres…Making self-building a mainstream choice!PATÉ (Pure, Absolute, Totally, Eco) is a new business with a mission to train young people self-building eco-homes which are affordable, lasting and environmentally friendly.Self-building is about building cheaply in an environmentally friendly way. Designing buildings that are sustainable from the outset, finding solutions, making the building sector fit for the future.Our current project is setting up a teaching centre in Portugal where weather allows all year trainings. In the UK we work from April to October as its outdoors work. This training centre is where youngsters of all ages will carry out projects with appropriate, reusable materials such as earth, straw, wood and tyres. Learning skills for a quality of life which they may think is beyond their reach. This new paradigm is going back to history, learning how to build a future that nourishes Earth and family life. Bringing self-building into the mainstream.Our sponsors will know the value of peaceful coexistence with Earth balancing human life with natural resources and considering other species.Purpose of this projectWe intend trailblazing the homes market with tested, life altering trainings, using traditional eco-building methods, old fashioned values, new possibilities for family life. Self and community building of affordable eco-homes, just may be the next bubble. Fantastic article - 'Earthly Powers' Louis Wustemann, Financial Times 21-22 March 2020 Budget notes,Any funds over this amount will facilitate online presentations to create awareness and excitement around the concept of what is possible for them in the area of eco-self building. During this period when people are looking for new opportunities, we offer a vision for a brighter future.Beyond £25,000 funds will be used as a reserve fund, for marketing and towards the courses and extending the land.We look forward to going to colleges with introductory talks.Website building, expanding the team, developing relationships with colleges, the media and customers,, as well as online introductions and teaching.We look forward to spending set up time in Portugal with the local community furthering those supportive relationships and giving this project the time it deserves to develop successfully. Further informationSome of the most accomplished UK trainers will be part of this project and glad to have the opportunity to work through winter months. These are professional trainers with passion & expertise, teaching theory and practise of eco-building, bringing skills, pride and hope to young people and families.Automation of industry and commerce is allowing people to have more time, though possibly less money. This creates the opportunity to consider self-building your own home. Sharing this profound experience with family and friends makes lasting bonds, communities and strengthens relationships. BackgroundI'm Ann Gylman, I studied English Literature, I set up the first walk in pregnancy testing clinic in UK, in Leicester, so women could have an immediate result and privacy.I worked in property management for some years until I founded my own property management company, which I sold to move to Brighton. It is still thriving today.I've managed, refurbished and restored properties in the UK and in France. I trained in eco self-building with Brighton Permaculture Trust and I'm heading this project to transform the housing market. To create awareness of the benefits of self-building and to make it a mainstream choice. Housing costs are a person's biggest regular outgoing, either mortgage or rent. Young people are finding it increasingly difficult or impossible to finance, they don’t know how they’re going to pay for a home in the future. BUT, job automation, means less money BUT more time.Bringing self-building into the mainstream as a valid choice, saves many thousands of pounds in costs and interest payments.The great Mark Twain said, “Buy land, they’re not making it anymore.”Ones own home, built with love!! Impact Our expectation is that we can be a viable business in 2 years.A woman said recently she was out of work but wanted to contribute. I asked her if she could give £1, she said yes, but was it worth it? We agreed it was and she would ask her friends to put in £1. She promised to send £10, and she did. We really appreciate that she did this and kickstarted this campaign. Please know that we value and appreciate every gesture of support.Another woman sent £1,000. Sponsors for this project are aware that changes are needed in the housing market.UK statistics show prior to CV19 that 180 people daily were being evicted from their home.Every contribution brings us closer to supporting people to self-build secure homes, youngsters, parents and grandparents are a powerful group financially and energetically.The cost of eco self-building is affordable, without excessive mortgage debt.Our intention is to bring ecological self-building into the mainstream, giving people purpose and choice. Our contributors will be celebrated, remembered and known for their foresight and generosity.Heroes are the pioneers of this new paradigm - the researchers, the developers, the contributors to life that works for everyone. CONCLUSION ~Self and community building of sustainable eco-homes is perhaps the next bubble. We promise to give information and trainings on how to build safe, long-lasting buildings in a community based on fellowship, humanity, teamwork, self-reliance and pride. I’m imagining people with strong family values, philanthropists who are aware of social problems, and who are seeing a bigger picture. They are adventurous, open to both old and new ideas for affordable, sustainable freehold, family housing, wanting old fashioned family values reinstated.In gratitude, Ann Risks & ChallengesIf we raise less than the full amount we will continue campaigning.We'll prepare as much as possible during the pandemic, knowing we are preparing information and putting plans in place for those who want to learn more about self-building My daughter said, "When this is over, everyone will be running for the hills to self-build" Other Ways You Can HelpPlease share our campaign to as many people as possible, giving them the choice to contribute and learn about eco self-building. You could be opening a door for a friend or someone they know. Please contribute what you can.Were looking forward to sharing our progress with you and to seeing you in Portugal in the future.
Donate NowOverviewThe first medical-grade air purifier, which can decompose the polluted air not only absorbing it. ✅ Removes Smell & Odor ✅ Kills Bacteria & Virus ✅ Cleans Out Pollen & Allergen ✅ Filters Out Smoke & PM 2.5 ✅ Purifies by removing VOCs ✅ Core Filter Can Last up to 12 years ✅ 8 Hours Battery Time Powerful and portable, the b-Mola GO is the first medical-grade air purifier designed for consumer usage. Unlike traditional air purifiers, b-Mola GO utilizes the most effective NCCO patented technology (Nano Confined Catalytic Oxidation). NCCO is widely used in many hospitals and public areas to provide you with the best quality air. b-MOLA GO has 3 filtering systems: HEPA filter, Active Oxygen Generator, and NCCO filter. The system can clean 99% of any harmful and unhealthy elements in the air. This is the same structure used in hospital air purification systems.HEPA can clean solid pollution like dust, smoke, mites, and pollen while the Active Oxygen Generator kills bacteria and virus. Lastly, the NCCO filter catalyzes and decomposes of any odor, harmful gases, and VOC.And the NCCO Reactor filter can last 12 years. b-MOLA GO’s portable and internal battery design make it extremely mobile and convenient. Put it in your living room, bedroom, take it to your office, or even leave it in your car to have fresh air whenever you are. The Smoke Purification Testing We used PH smoke pellets to generate smoke. One of these small pellets can last over 40 seconds; making the smoke hard to dissipate. b-MOLA can clean the smoke instantly, which proves it has the capability to clean any solid pollutants such as smoke, dust, pollen, mites, or PM2.5.The VOC Purification Test We used acetone[1] to test the ability to purify VOC. After we dropped the acetone in the beaker, it started to volatilize in the box and the VOC concentration indicated a drastic increase. In the end, the data was stable around 170 ppm[2]. When b-MOLA was turned on, almost all the acetone in the box was purified; showcasing the capability of b-MOLA against VOC and other toxic gases.[1]Acetone (propanone) is the organic compound with the formula (CH3)2CO. It is a colorless, volatile, flammable liquid that is the simplest and smallest ketone.[2]ppm and ppb are the concentration units. ppm = parts per million. ppb= parts per billion. 1 ppm = 1000 ppb. The Sterilization Test We used two Petri dishes for this testing. One of the Petri dishes was put in the open area while the other was put in a space with the b-MOLA GO. Then we turned on b-MOLA GO and timed what happened.3 days (72 hours) later, the petri dish in the open area generated visible bacterial colonies, which means an exponential bacterial growth occurred. The petri dish with the b-MOLA GO, however, looked the same as before. It proves b-MOLA GO is effective in killing bacterias and viruses. To eliminate the solid pollutants in the air such as pollen, dust, and smoke, b-MOLA employs a Medical Grade HEPA filter. The HEPA filter is a highly efficient shield to trap the particles in and only needs to be replaced around once a year.Put a b-MOLA in any room or car and never worry about allergy season again. With a single HEPA filter, it can capture any allergenic pollen, PM2.5, and smoke for 6 months all the way up to 18 months; the average is 12 months. Just place it in any room or space and let b-Mola take care of the rest. NCCO is short for Nano Confined Catalytic Oxidation. Instead of absorbing the chemical pollutants like traditional air purification technology, NCCO sanitizes up to 99.97% of harmful air and smells. Instantly destroy any room odor and air pollutants with b-MOLA with its patented NCCO technology. Conventional air purifiers, such as active charcoal, can only absorb but do not decompose of the pollutants. As a result, it can only last about 3 months. Once the filter is saturated, the absorbed pollutants will be released back into the air and cause “secondary pollution,” which can be very harmful to your health. In contrast, NCCO decomposes pollutants and can last 12 years without being replaced.NCCO is so effective and cost saving, it is used in many hospitals, banks, metro stations, and other public areas. The first air purifier equipped with an active oxygen generator, the b-MOLA Go can kill 99.7% of all bacterias and viruses by adsorbing it into the HEPA filter. Unlike traditional UV-C and OZONE air purifier, active oxygen is safe and can be decomposed by NCCO filters; causing no harm to humans.This technology has been used to protect people from infections in hospitals. b-Mola GO is designed to be compact and mobile. It’s lightweight, leather carrying handle, and a robust internal battery that can last up to 8 hours of continuous use. When it does run out of power, just charge it via outlet or with a portable power bank when you’re on-the-go. For your daily and long-term use, we built a silent fan in b-MOLA GO. The noise in silent mode is only 34 dB, get uninterrupted sleep while it runs in the background. It even has an auto power off setting to save power and make it eco-friendly. The Production Status We had finished the final trial production in the factory. Now it's ready for the mass production. We will start to produce the first batch of products in the early of this month. We plan to produce all the units in this month and ship it out at Dec. Risks And Challenges Before launching our project on Indiegogo, we have already conducted two pilot productions as well as send our products to friends and professional photographers for testing and reviewing. We have improved the deficiency of the product design based on their feedback and suggestions.Apart from that, we’ve also built out a specific plan for our manufacturing process. So we have confidence in shipping the b-MOLA GO on time. If there are any changes due to materials, suppliers, or unforeseen events, we’ll ensure that we keep each of our supporters fully updated. Now, we had finalized the trial production and are ready to start the mass production, but we need your support. Your support not only gives us the ability to start mass production and build the best products we can imagine but allows us to continue to work on new ideas.
Donate NowOverviewWe are raising funds to install six Community Solar Pumps that will benefit over 1,000 people in rural Assam, India. This will help us expand our affordable pay-as-you-go solar irrigation service, Oonnati ("progress"), to reach the poorest marginal farmers. Solar pumps will replace polluting and costly diesel pumps, helping farmers save on input costs, boost yields, grow high-value crops and double their incomes. We hope to build a track record so we can scale up and impact millions of farmers.Solar pumps are a cost-effective and sustainable solution, but 90% of farmers - mostly poor and marginal farmers with less than 1 hectare of landholding - cannot afford the upfront investment. Oonnati, which means "progress" in Hindi, is a disruptive solution to make affordable low-carbon solar pumping technology accessible to these farmers. We install, operate and maintain Community Solar Pumps that can be shared by a group of 15-30 farmers with adjacent landholding. Any farmer with land near to a solar pump can sign up to Oonnati irrigation services and access water year-round without any upfront cost. Farmers buy water on a pay-as-you-go basis at a tariff that is 20% cheaper than diesel-powered irrigation. They can more effectively irrigate their land, increase crop yields by up to 50% and diversify to grow high-value crops .In addition to providing water services, Oorja also operates and maintains the solar pumps for their full lifetime, ensuring sustainability. The PlanOorja is running this campaign to launch Oonnati in Assam, India, where only 20% of farmland is under irrigation, with the remainder being rainfed. Almost 70% of the population of Assam is directly dependent on agriculture as a source of income. Farmers grow mostly rice, wheat, oilseeds, pulses and some vegetables and fruits. There is potential for high agricultural yields, but this is constrained by erratic and uncertain rainfall.With your contribution, we will install six Community Solar Pumps in Bongaigaon district, Assam, helping irrigate approximately 120 acres of farmland. This project will meet the irrigation water needs of a community of about 1,000 people. It will reduce their irrigation expenses by over 20%, prevent 5,000 litres of diesel from being burned annually and save 13,400 kg of CO2 from being emitted each year. We will also create 4 full-time jobs in the community. We have partnered with (SeSTA), a local NGO that has been active in livelihood promotion in Assam for the past eight years. They will assist us with community mobilisation and formation of farmer groups. SeSTA will also train farmers on effective irrigation and cultivation of high-value crops to help maximise the benefits farmers receive from solar pumping.This project is a critical milestone in our mission to build inclusive, prosperous and climate-resilient rural economies. It is important because it will help us demonstrate the viability of Oonnati in a new market, gain traction among farmers, and scale up to deploy 1000s of solar pumps. In contributing to this campaign, you will not just be supporting a project. You will be helping us build a movement so that we can replicate this model all over India and Africa to impact millions of farmers. What We NeedYour donations will be used for the deployment of one Cluster of six Community Solar Pumps (each 3 HP in capacity) in Assam. We require £25,000 to cover the costs of solar pumping equipment, borewell construction, labour and material for installation and travel to Bongaigaon district, Assam for site selection, project implementation and training. With support from SeSTA, we have already collected preliminary data on local groundwater levels and cropping patterns and obtained buy-in from the farming community. Once we receive the funds, we will be ready to proceed with procuring equipment and implementing the project so we can start Oonnati irrigation services this summer. The costs of operating and maintaining the pump Cluster (technician and operator salaries, spare parts, repairs, etc.) will be covered by the water fees collected from farmers.A breakdown of the use of funds is provided below:In case we only partially meet our funding goal, we will install a reduced number of solar pumps on a pro rata basis after covering our essential costs (£3,500 for travel and overheads). On the other hand, if we exceed our funding goal, we have several more feasible sites in the pipeline, where we can implement additional Clusters. In short, more funds equal more pumps deployed and more farmers impacted!You can monitor the progress and the impact this project will have in three ways: through our live Impact Dashboard on our website, by signing up to our newsletter, and by following our social media channels (@oorjasolutions). Who Are We?We are (Oorja), an award-winning social enterprise based in New Delhi, India, that has been active since 2017. Our mission is to develop solar energy solutions to combat poverty and climate change. Oorja has a passionate team of four people with 25 years of total experience in sustainable development, renewable energy, finance and climate a solar technician with deep connection to local communities.Our team is extremely capable and resourceful, having gained considerable ground experience in the planning and execution of community-based solar projects. This project builds on three successful Community Solar Pumping pilots installed by us in Uttar Pradesh, India in late 2018. Around 450 people from two different communities are benefiting from cheaper and reliable irrigation. As groundwater can now be accessed in the dry season, many farmers have started a third cropping cycle and are growing high-value peppermint, sugarcane and maize.

Donate NowStory Wind under your clothes? Blow from behind the neck? Yes, NECOOL can even be used even when wearing a spacesuit. # Have you seen a portable fan that blows this much out of your clothes? # You worry about getting your hair sucked, don't you? Try NECOOL now!!# Have you seen a fan with winds coming out when the front and back are blocked? If a fan is covered by hands, the fan would blow nothing but noise in general, but NECOOL is different. # Isn't the noise loud? NECOOL is a low-noise design portable fan that can be used without stress caused by noise. Have you ever suffered this while using a portable fan? "Is there any way to get rid of sweat in the back neck?""Too much sweat under clothes?""Isn't there a fan that can be used when lifting a big box and running?""What about free usage on a table?""Risk of damage from dropping objects (a portable fan, a mobile phone and etc)?""The Trouble caused by hair getting sucked into a fan?""Dry eye syndrome and Dry skin trouble?""Inconvenient to use in a dynamic environment?""Dissatisfaction with the weak wind?""Being concerned about stability?" If you suffer anything above, it's time to pay attention to NECOOL! NECOOL is a new neck band type fan, that eliminates all of these shortcomings.In fact, I remember dropping my smartphone while holding a portable fan and the phone in my hands. Of course, it was damaged LCD. Something came to my mind then. On a hot summer day, a portable fan is a must, but nothing is good to use now. | First, Remove The Limitation of Use.Usually, 'portable' means the small size and convenience to carry and use. "But why should a portable fan be held by hand while in use?" We have so much to do with our hands. Probably most of the day you will use your hands. NECOOL Portable Fan White / Black NECOOL is a portable hands-free fan that can blow a strong wind in any direction as you wish. As a neckband type, NECOOL is a removable fixed one so that it does not come off easily! These photos are about the group test that has been conducted by classifying users since 2018. (express delivery drivers, exercise enthusiasts, mechanics, parenting moms, beekeepers, anglers, travel guides, climbers, sprinters, cooks…) How about NECOOL as a gift? # What about hair? You don't have to worry about getting your hair sucked even if you wear NECOOL on your neck! NECOOL is suitable for any job and any environment.When you should use your hand, you can ask yourself "Where do I put the fan I am holding?" No worry about that anymore.If you wear NECOOL once, then no need to hold that. Yeah! It can even be worn inside hijabs and protective clothing. | Second, Design As it is hands-free, stability when wearing NECOOL is very important. It took about 2 years from the prototype to the completion of NECOOL. Looking back, I sketched and made NECOOL countless times. After making the prototype, we split the test groups to get feedback, reflected again, and kept repeating.Repeating this process, we decided on the size, grip, and location of the wind holes, and tackled the overall stability! The connection belt is thinner so that it is not too noticeable as it is worn on the neck.Detachable buttons on the front and back of the fan are placed for easy wearing.Solid durability so that it does not come off easily after wearing it.Smooth design removing the propellers.Flexible wire feature that can be adjusted to the desired angle. After a lot of ups and downs, we realized the optimal shape of NECOOL, which can be worn comfortably by all ages, regardless of height and size. | Third, Cool * After wearing NECOOL, put it inside the T-shirt + When the fan is turned 180 degrees down (photo was taken at level 3) The unique design doesn’t mean the efficacy is not great. It will be noticed at once that NECOOL blows the most strong wind among the existing portable fans.This is the only difference of NECOOL according to the motor, design, and usage! 1. The first secret of the strong wind: BLDC motorNECOOL is equipped with BLDC motor (6,000 RPM) used for expensive electronic products. This BLDC motor is a brushless motor that can be used semi-permanently by removing the brittle parts inside the motor to increase durability and energy efficiency.At first, the motors of the propeller fans were disassembled numerous times, but the desired result was not achieved. Then, suddenly noticing that heat was removed from the bottom of the laptop, similar motors were purchased for each type to enter the air volume/wind pressure test.Finally, the propeller was removed to get rid of worry about hair getting sucked, and the BLDC motor was installed! # NECOOL wind speed testAlso, if you are holding the body by hand while using a portable fan, there will be a usually loud noise only. However, NECOOL shows a wind speed of up to 3.7 m/s even when the main body is covered. 2. The second secret of the wind: Straight WindWhen using a propeller, it is usually in the form of a 'dispersion-type wind' that radiates while the wings rotate. Unlike that, NECOOL is a 'straight wind’ that centralizes and blows out the wind, so more powerful wind comes out. * Left: After wearing NECOOL, the body is turned to the back neck / Right: Wearing NECOOL and putting it inside the shirt + the body is turned 180 degrees down 3. The third secret of the wind: Close Contact WindMost people who use portable fans have high body temperature, right?NECOOL is cooler to blow the wind in close contact with the face, back neck, and stomach by cooling the neck which is sensitive to body temperature change. | And NoiseDue to the nature of the portable fan, it is more sensitive to noise because it is most used close to your body. Another reason why NECOOL is equipped with a BLDC motor is because of low noise and low power. You can guess the noise level through the video and graph! Low noise design from 52 DB to 60 DB allows you to use NECOOL in everyday life. | SafetyLastly, safety is very important as it is an electronic product.NECOOL is equipped with the Protection Circuit Module (PCM) of lithium-ion battery so that it can be used safely by completing overcharge, over-discharge, and overcurrent block features. | Various Usage# Adjust the wind angle as you wish NECOOL's principle is to shoot wind toward the neck which is sensitive to body temperature. Besides that, since NECOOL has a 180-degree rotation function, you can adjust the wind angle as you like, such as your chin, face, and stomach!NECOOL is a fully customized portable fan for users.# My knowhow to wear NECOOL When you turn NECOOL's body down 180 degrees, the wind will be directed toward the stomach. Put NECOOL in your clothes (shirt, T-shirt, etc.) like that! Then no one can see NECOOL, but it can feel much cooler.#Cooling your head You can also wind the back of your neck by turning the body back. Adjust the angle to the left, center or right as you wish.#Use on a table NECOOL can be used not only close to your body, but also on a table. Use it in your office, at school, in the hospital, in the car anytime, anywhere!However, while using NECOOL on the table, move both sides at the same time as you turn or bend the necklace. Otherwise, symmetry may not fit with just one hand.# Product SpecificationsYou can give NECOOL as gifts to your loved ones!A person who has a lot of time outdoorsA person who loves intense exerciseA person who works in a hot environment (cooking, etc.)A person who is uncomfortable carrying a portable fanA person in a special environment (maintenance, factory, orchard, etc.)NECOOL will cool this summer down!!Of course, we have prepared NECOOL at special Kickstarter prices for your family, friends, and lovers.Take NECOOL before summer comes!!
Donate NowA multidisciplinary team for a complex need Today's frontline workers engaged in the fight against Ebola in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) must before all think about their own safety before taking care of their patients. This is due to their personal protective equipment (PPE) being inappropriate for the demanding conditions faced in tropical climates in developing countries. Overheating and exhaustion while working, self-contamination during the critical undressing procedure, lack of human and empathic relationship with patients are typical issues faced by healthcare workers in their daily work. We are medical doctors, engineers, entrepreneurs and humanitarian responders engaged in developing a personal protective equipment allowing healthcare workers caring for patients infected by the Ebola virus to perform their work in a safe environments. The solution To address the safety issues linked to the multitude components of the PPE, especially those protecting the head and face area, we have designed a one-piece suit with a large face shield. This single-piece design greatly simplifies and accelerates dressing and undressing procedures. The latter is particularly crucial, since healthcare workers are exhausted - sometimes dehydrated - when they leave these suits, which makes them more prone to making mistakes if the undressing procedure is complex, thus increasing the risk of self-contamination with infected fluids remaining on the suit. SmartPPE also features a ventilation system to keep the temperature inside the suit bearable. The air is filtered and brought directly to the face area, which prevents fogging of the face shield. Finally, our solution is also reusable, contrarily to most items of currently used PPE. This means less hassle for procurement, storage and especially for waste disposal. But it also means a reduced cost in the long run for a better suit. The PPE can be disinfected using locally available infrastructures, i.e. essentially a bucket of chlorinated water, and reused up to 100 times. The suit we are developing has already undergone several rounds of prototyping, has benefited from the long experience of SF Tech in designing suits for adverse environments and has undergone several reviews by field experts from MSF. It is now ready to enter a final testing phase in specialized laboratories to validate its protective performance in the conditions faced in Ebola treatment centers in DRC, before it can be safely sent to the field. We need your support to carry out this critical phase before the project can be safely transferred to our industrial partner and the suit can start being used in the field, where it is most needed. Are you ready to join us? Your contribution today will help us get solid evidence that our suit is tough enough for the very demanding environmental conditions encountered in DRC. More importantly, since our solution is reusable, to cut down waste and costs, the tests we have planned will guarantee frontline workers that even after dozens of use, washing and disinfection cycles their equipment is as safe and performant as new. And because a project like this with multiple partners and institutions requires a strong pilot, we will look for the best possible leader to make this suit field ready. In return Traditional crowdfunding campaigns will reward your support with one of the items you will help produce. We do not think that you are interested in having an Ebola PPE for gardening or walking your dog. The perks we are offering reflect our expertise in our fields (like the waterproof laptop protection or the rugged water purifying bottle) as well as the human relationships we want to put at the heart of what our suit enables, by giving you the opportunity to meet us and discover the environment in which this suit is developed. Bring this suit where it is needed By carrying out this critical testing phase, we will then be confident to tell healthcare workers that they are safe to wear this suit when attending Ebola patients and that they can enjoy its benefits - more time at the patient's bed, more human relationship with them, focus on their work rather than their safety. The biggest Ebola outbreak in the history of DRC is still ongoing, despite the availability of vaccines and treatments. One of the reasons for this is the difficulty to engage communities and build trust to convince patients and potentially infected people to attend an Ebola treatment center. This difficulty comes in part from the lack of human relationship between caretakers and patients, because patients can only see healthcare workers' eyes - most of the time through fogged up goggles. Making our suit available in the field will help counter this, thanks to the large face visor, kept clear by the constantly ventilated air.

Donate NowOverviewThe digiNow SuperCharger v2.5 is the most advanced, safest, and most rugged charger available. It was designed to be small enough to fit on Zero Motorcycles. Now we have tested it in offroad cars, winning the Baja 1000 with Fenix Motors. We have been working towards going full production in for 4 long years of R&D and product iteration. Now it is time to move up from pre-production and R&D here in our factory in Carmel, California, to producing chargers in a scalable, global, team environment!The Necessity of SuperCharging! In 2011 Brandon Nozaki Miller, CEO of digiNow Inc., began hacking his electric motorcycle for racing. One of the first things he realized is to get as much track time as possible he needed to charge the bike FAST. Unfortunately for Brandon, none of the products available on the market could charge his bike fast enough to allow for a full day's racing. From this was born the need for SuperCharging. After a few iterations of chargers for use at the track Brandon's friends, like famed Tourmaster Terry Hershner, took notice of his cool charging setups and tools; they wanted the same for themselves, so Brandon built his friends faster charging setups. It didn't take long until more people recognized how awesome SuperCharging was, and Brandon decided to make the SuperCharger available as a product. He started building SuperChargers in his living room and then moved to his garage as he needed more space. From there Terry Hershner introduced him to the inventor of the motorcycle fairing, Craig Vetter, who has since assisted in finding a more adequate facility for digiNow to grow, prototype, and build the first production units. Over the past year Craig's help has been invaluable to digiNow. But, now it's time to move on to the next level and utilize partners in China to move the current small-scale production to full-scale manufacturing. The demand for our chargers is so great right now that we can not produce them fast enough in our current facility. The design is solid enough now that, with your help, we can move manufacturing into a facility with the tools and expertise to build SuperChargers quickly and in large enough volumes to supply the world. What is SuperCharging? SuperCharging is a means of charging your bike, or other electric vehicle, really really fast! More than that, it is intelligent charging. SuperChargers communicate with your battery to monitor information vital to your battery's health, including C rate, temperature, voltage, and cell level data. Not only do they monitor, but the chargers react accordingly as conditions change.In the end all of this adds up to being able to charge your vehicle at speeds of 3C safely. We keep it limited to 1C for riders of Zero motorcycles that want to keep their warranty, though. Over 1C, even with our fancy algorithm, is limited to advanced users. Features: Full system integration with Zero Motorcycle’s Battery Management System (BMS) to ensure battery longevity, safety and maximum charging speeds.Powerful charging options upto 10 kW providing over 7.6x faster charging than Zero’s standard 1.3 kW onboard charger.0-80% charge in as little as 36 minutes with 10kW SuperCharger (based on Zero Motorcycle 13.0 kWh models).Lightweight and compact design allowing either modular 3.3 kW charge bricks (FX) or 10 kW unit to fit in the same location occupied by Zero’s 1.3 kW onboard charger with included SuperCharger belly pan.Automatically adjusts charging speed based on battery voltage and temperature to ensure long term battery health.User configurable option to dramatically increase the motorcycle’s battery life by allowing user to hold charge at a desired percentage (i.e. only charge to 80% every night, similar to Daily/Trip charging options in Tesla vehicles). Zero Motorcycles currently does not offer this option so the motorcycle always charges to 100%, which is not ideal for keeping your battery healthy longer. How do these things work? Plug the EV station, or any other source of power into your bike and let the charging begin! US versions come standard with J1772 inlets, and EU versions come with full 3 phase Mennekes Type 2 support. You can also use an Android or iOS device to adjust max power and voltage. Set your bike to only charge up to 80% for extra longevity. You could also have your charger hold your bike at 60% for long term storage if you really wanted.The short answer, though, is that you just plug it in. Production & Backer PerksDigiNow needs $195,000 USD to move production to a shared facility with TC Charger, Di Long Technology, and DuoSida in China. TC Charger has been a key player in the Chinese EV industry, producing reliable and highly durable for EV manufacturers all over the world. Di Long Technology is one of the most respected and trustworthy facilities for charger development and is focused on helping startups like digiNow make an impact in the EV market. DuoSida is a behind-the-scenes manufacturer of EV charging stations and parts for many other manufacturers with certifications of the highest quality. Di Long Tech was recently awarded the High-Tech Enterprise by the Hebei Provincial Science and Technology Agency. With the help of these partners we have made a product rugged enough for the most challenging of scenarios, and small enough that it fits not just in any car, but also on any motorcycle.With our latest design we have finally come to a final product which we are already building and delivering in a small scale in Carmel, California. With our partners' help we have been able to source suppliers for parts and materials to build not only our high powered electronics, but also our mounting brackets, PCBs, and EV power inlets. The funding we collect will be spent on setting up and building our production process and quality checking at the facility in China of 3 Phase & Single Phase supporting chargers to comply with international infrastructure. The 6 places this funding will be used most will be :Reducing product cost (complete)10kw charger small enough to fit on a motorcycle (complete)Skid pan or bash pan strong enough to support motorcycle riding (complete)High power inlets and adapters for around the world (complete)Assembly of all parts into a final product Packaging and logistics for product safety during shipment The Perks we are offering, for your support in this, are designed to give you exclusive access to the latest products with the highest quality. We understand that a lot of you may already have our v2.5 SuperChargers which were manufactured here in the states and have the same amount of power. For users who already have our v2.5 we have added in stickers, bike tuning, track days, custom rides with Brandon and Terry, or even training from Brandon directly. And, if none of these sound amazing to you, but you still want to support this awesome company and its progress in the EV industry, you can always hit the pink "BACK IT" button in the upper right side of this page to show us your support without one of the perks too!For those of you who are still slow charging with just the Zero onboard charger, or charge tank, we have perks that get you everything you need and more for SuperCharging and Zero Touring training. More Than Meets the EyeSupporting this product and production process not only ensures that SuperChargers will be available for users across the globe in a timely fashion, but also ensures that the digiNow team can have a little breathing room to develop new products to better your EV.Currently there is no other company coming up with products as safe or game changing as digiNow. We do it because we love EVs and our passion allows us to see the problems we and others have, and come up with fun, innovative solutions for them. We are more than happy to keep building the products in house ourselves, but we would much rather get our products made with our partners' help so we can keep making awesome solutions for everyone! International TestingIn an effort to insure the highest quality builds, we have tested all our pre-production products for over 1 million miles in :United StatesGermanyNetherlandsBelgiumDenmarkUnited KingdomMexicoNew ZealandAustraliaJapanIndonesiaThailandBahamas Risks & ChallengesSo far, in our 4 years developing the SuperCharger, we have faced MANY risks and challenges. Sourcing quality parts and finding trustworthy vendors has been very difficult. We have had vendors switch product quality on us, and even vendors trying to sell our tech to other companies. We have had to learn about all the individual charge station companies, their choices in implementing the charging standards, as well as international oddities about charging.Having worked with our partners since 2016 and developing a relationship with their teams, we feel confident we finally have a good set of partners we can rely on. Our teams have good communication, and when we run across difficulties in sourcing materials, parts, or simplifying complicated solutions, we are able to work to successfully overcome any challenge we've come across so far. Community Support We greatly appreciate support from users, like the amazing Terry Hershner putting the chargers through their paces on cross country motorcycle trips with his trusty companion "Charger" the Moto-Husky, and Ben Rich Electric Biker riding from Florida to Maine in all the trecherous weather of the East Coast.These guys really help us with testing and knowledge-transfer that needs to happen for newer customers who aren't Seasoned Veterans of Electric Touring.We also have had help with interim documentation from riders such as Brian T. Rice and Kelly Cash. Their help in keeping the community informed on how to use their chargers until this point has been immense and no amount of thanks could ever suffice for their efforts in documenting not just the hardware, but also the apps and how to control your chargers from your phone. Now, with the production units ready, we can finally take full advantage of the community service provided here for official documentation.But, most importantly, we need to thank members of the community like DoctorBass who helped us design and bring the v2.5 pan to a production ready state. DoctorBass started the project of his own accord after discussing with me what we were working on. His skill and expertise with military-grade products lead to fascinating teamwork and testing which has brought not only a better charger to market, but has allowed us to improve upon Zero motorcycles dramatically. Finally, a big thank you to Luke Workman and the other members of the Electric Wizards Association (EWA, straight out of Santa Cruz). We cannot thank EVERYONE in the community enough for their individual support in all the ways they have provided it.Thank you. Other Ways You Can HelpSome people just can't contribute, but that doesn't mean they can't help:Ask folks to get the word out and make some noise about this campaign.Remind them to use the Indiegogo share tools!Thank you all for all of your help!

Always consult with us: [email protected] as we have so much experience :) The New HomeBiogas Generation is a powerful tool that can help you live sustainably and mitigate climate change! It is an off-the-grid appliance, meaning that it does not depend on the use of any non-renewable power source. When you choose to cook on biogas that was made from your food waste, you are reducing the demand for fossil fuels, which are non-renewable resources. Mining, processing and transporting fossil fuels take a lot of energy and resources, which is harmful to the environment and is a leading contributor to climate change. When food goes to the landfill, the nutrients in the food never return to the soil. But when you use HomeBiogas, the bacteria in the biodigester will break down the organic matter and convert it into biogas and fertilizer. The fertilizer can then be used to nourish plants, recycling essential nutrients back into the soil. Local waste management with the HomeBiogas system diverts food scraps from becoming landfill waste. The wasted food rots and produces methane gas which is released into the atmosphere and contributes to global warming. When you use HomeBiogas you will be recycling your food scraps in your own backyard and recycling the methane your food produces. Most people have already caught on that going green isn't only the right thing to do, but it also saves you money. Depending on how much you cook, your gardening habits, and your municipality's waste collection services, HomeBiogas can save you hundreds of dollars a year and have a return on investment of less than 2 years! What's more? By up-cycling your food scraps instead of throwing them away, you are FULLY using and taking advantage of the groceries you buy every week. Wasting any food is wasting your money. We started making biodigesters in 2012 with a mission to make free, renewable energy available to everyone. Since then, we’ve helped thousands of people to become self-reliant and sustainable. We keep receiving feedback from our current customers: In what way do you feel the environmental impact of the system?"I feel really proud of using biogas to reduce my environmental footprint. I also help others by taking and processing their meat scraps which would otherwise go to landfill and contribute methane to the greenhouse problem.""The bins at the side of our houses don’t emit a rotting odour like our neighbours do. We’re using less electricity to cook on our stove. Rather than using different/separate modes of composting, it is all going into one system.""We are using less LPG. Improved soil and garden. We live on a rocky sandstone outcrop with very poor soil, so I am thrilled with the liquid fert." What is your overall feedback on gas production and use of liquid fertilizer?"It just works as described on the website. It's simple and effective.""We use the liquid fertilizer in our aquaponics system - which is great because we now don't need fish.""Super easy to produce gas from Spring to Autumn. I'm not a regular cook so availability of scraps would go from nothing for a week to heaps with a big cook up. I was surprised by how well the system coped with my lack of regular care. The liquid fertiliser is great. I've mostly just poured it on a new garden bed I put in and the plants flourished. You could see a difference in plant growth between that bed and other beds.

Not Only For Home UseDid you know that HomeBiogas is useful in many settings besides private homes? Our customers place the system in various settings, including eco-villages, small restaurants, suburban offices, schools and universities. As long as there is waste and a need for cooking, HomeBiogas can be of use! We were overwhelmingly happy with the success of HomeBiogas 2.0, and the quality feedback we received from our customers. Still, we are on a never-ending journey to make our customers have a perfect user experience. For the new model, we decided to take the ease-of-assembly to the next level. We unified individual parts of the system together, so that the customer has less set-up to do at home. We opened our own warehouses where we develop and manufacture all parts of the system according to our specific specifications and standards. In this way, we minimize any risk of faulty or sub-quality parts. Also, we were finally able to create and manufacture extremely durable, 100% recyclable materials for the New Generation, which is a longtime dream of the company that aligns with our company vision and character.

Our planet is overflowing with plastic bottles, used for a matter of minutes but creating waste for centuries. Our filters turn tap water into electrolyte rich water and our bottles carry it everywhere sustainably. Water filtration is key to overcoming the growth of bottled water, but our industry has it's own environmental problems. In your standard water filter, you need to throw away your cartridge every 30 days. So we created an innovative solution that will not only provide great tasting water but reduce plastic waste. We realised how backward it was to have to throw out water filter cartridges every 30 days. So we are leading the way with a totally re-useable cartridge. While some traditional filter brands have recycling schemes in place, the carbon footprint of this journey is circumvented by our refillable filter - avoiding all of these unnecessary steps. Simple innovations are the best. With 100 million cartridges going to landfill or worse each year, it made total sense to find a way to make cartridges last as long as the pitcher.Tap water commonly carries chlorine, lead, heavy metals and pesticides among many more. Let our filter take care of these, so your body doesn’t have to. Tap water quality can fluctuate between locations based on factors like hardness, differing contaminants and even fluoridation. One filter does not fit all. That is why we have provided two different packs which can filter to your water needs. Some people just want cleaner and softer water, while others want clean water with added minerals for an alkaline pH. Take Your Pick! Making sure you receive your filters on time is our priority. Our neat refill packs are ideal for letterboxes. To help reduce our carbon footprint, we focused on sourcing companies locally in the UK. The manufacturing, packaging, design and distribution of the V2 is all done within a 50 mile radius of our office in Glasgow. Our filtration media is made in England.Phox V2 Jug Overall height: 30 cm Overall weight: 1.2 Kg Diameter of glass base: 12 cm Reservoir volume: 0.75 L Glass pitcher volume: 1.5 L Time of Filtrate: 8 MinutesMaterials Reservoir: Polypropylene (PP) Pitcher: Glass Base: Thermoplastic Elastomer (TPE)Refillable Cartridge Overal height: 8 cm Diameter: 6.5 cm Material: Polypropylene (PP)It has taken us more than 18 months to get here. Through many iterations and prototypes we created a better & more eco-friendly way to hydrate. After five concepts and three 3D prints we honed in on the final design.Water filtration is not new to Phox. We previously created a successful V1 water filtration jug. From this experience we've gained a lot of feedback and we've used it all to design a better, more sustainable product.
