Humless launches 'Light the Night' initiative

Monday, 22 August, 2011

Humless, LLC has launched their 'Light the Night' initiative to bring solar generated electricity to off-grid communities and rural medical clinics, both domestically and abroad. First steps include development of a powerful, silent, and portable solar generator and power supply system (X50 series) for diverse applications such as the efforts of Safe Mothers, Safe Babies (SAFE) - a non-profit organisation dedicated to improving maternal and newborn health in Uganda. In addition, Light the Night will explore reliable, affordable emergency power needs for medical devices at home and abroad.

“Too many women die in childbirth,” said Jacqueline Cutts, Founder and President of Safe Mothers, Safe Babies. “We know how to prevent this daily tragedy, and the solar generated light captured and delivered by the Humless units will remove a key barrier to women in labour accessing life-saving care when delivering at night. With these units, women will no longer face the dangers of delivering at these health centres by candlelight.”

Based on advanced lithium+ design, Humless technology is claimed to be two-thirds lighter, lasts five times longer, and is 20%+ more efficient than lead acid battery technology. This allows for more portable solutions, offering robust on-demand power. Reliable electricity to rural clinics will power lighting, refrigeration, and other life-saving devices.
