The absence of a consistent performance standard has made it difficult to provide comparable product claims and effectively communicate features and benefits, which consumers use to select the right flashlight for their specific needs.\u00a0 Our research indicates a consistent performance platform would be quite beneficial to help users make the right selection when choosing a flashlight.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, the category is changing rapidly as new companies and products enter the market. Flashlight technology has radically changed and consumers are eager to learn more about these new disruptive technologies.<\/p>\n<p>Current agencies, such as UL (Underwriters Laboratories), do not provide performance standards for flashlights, so major retailer\u2019s that employ testing firms are requesting guidance.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Flashlight Standards<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>To respond to this need, 14 flashlight companies, including Energizer, collaborated to write a standard.\u00a0 They included the following products: hand-held\/portable flashlights, spotlights, and headlamps.<\/p>\n<p>The ANSI\/NEMA FL 1 Standard has been ratified and includes six measures. Each measure is defined, has a test procedure specified, and has an associated icon to use for claims. Standard ratification included voters representing three groups:\u00a0 1) manufacturers, 2) users, and 3) general interests \u2013 one group cannot represent more than 50% of the total ratifying

Sometimes we begin the sport with clothes that we believe that such equipment is necessary only to professional athletes. But the equipment has nothing to do with the level of professionalism and how many hours we practice or practicing sports every day, but to understand the need for protection of our body from injury and maintain the possible physically and mentally healthy to continue unabated workouts. In particular, the right running equipment, helps to enjoy more running. With this in mind, both the hobbyist and the professional, work everyone to their limits trying to overcome themselves. Runners have to protect their feet, because they receive incredible pressures and working harder than any other body part. Basic philosophy is: \u201cDo not destroy your feet and shoes with any socks.\u201d<br \/>\nWhy do we need them?<br \/>\nA high-quality running sock is not simply a piece of \u201ccloth\u201d, but the intermediate functional link \u201cfoot-shoe\u201d which comes directly into contact with the skin. Is the material managed by the moisture of the foot and the surface that will protect the feet from pressure and vibration and will properly support the foot with the selected anatomical investments.<br \/>\nWhat should we avoid?<br \/>\nKeep cotton socks, even if they are labeled \u201cRunning\u201d, off your running shoes. Running and exercise more than 30 minutes, it is a good idea to use a sock made of materials that are less friendly and more friendly foot, thus more able to correct moisture transfer. The terms \u201chydrophilic\u201d and \u201chydrophobic\u201d refer respectively to the ability of a sock to absorb moisture or not. Cotton therefore absorbs moisture very well \u2013 in fact, so well that never lets go! The cotton socks absorb moisture, swell and lose because of their shape and their compression, while continuing to accumulate and to hold until the end of the exercise. More specifically, the amount of sweat increases dramatically during exercise to help your body to cool. For example, athletes who train can produce 1500-2000ml sweat per hour during heavy exercise in a hot environment, and there are those in which the amount produced can reach 3700ml per hour. The highest concentration of sweat glands those detected in the palms of our hands and soles of our feet. The sole of the foot has more sweat glands of the body, in whole about 250000-300000. Thus, the body sweat produced and not enough time to evaporate, ending legs and therefore accumulates in socks. Attention! always talking about 100% cotton socks rather than stockings combining cotton and other materials greatly reducing the negative cotton.<br \/>\n\u00a0<br \/>\nResults<br \/>\nCombined the leg that is closed in shoe and badly ventilated created various problems: blisters, calluses, irritation, fungal infections on the feet of athletes and all that can occur from poor application of a sock made from unsuitable materials. In fact the use of unsuitable materials may result in keratolysis pads \u2013 as unpleasant sound that occurs in walking who have suffered from excessive sweating, infarction, recurrent presence of moisture resulting in elevated PH altered surface of the skin. And as far as athlete\u2019s foot always remember: \u201cDark, warm, moist environment in the leg is a paradise for fungi.\u201d<br \/>\nWhat to choose?<br \/>\nFor the sport of Running wherein the sweating is intense and continuing for a long time the most appropriate fiber used for manufacturing socks ideal running is Coolmax. The Coolmax material is considered the most suitable for the management of the accumulated moisture and perfectly compatible with the materials they are made of, street shoes. The synthetic fibers are hydrophobic, meaning that because the moisture transfer away from the foot do not like the evaporating. Besides the selection of suitable fibers to be friendly to your foot during running, high quality Retrospective socks incorporate other advantages that can optimize your performance. An important feature is the lack seam handmade compound in the toe area, which eliminates the possibility of friction and irritation at the top of the fingers, the specific support of the sock with anatomical zones for stability in motion, the Y heel nest properly foot. In addition, the special weave of the materials and the particular structure of the sock with the selected zones and ventilation channels in the design, allowing moisture to move away from walking faster and help the sock to \u201cbreath\u201d.<br \/>\n\u00a0<br \/>\nMore technical information on \u201cCoolmax VS Cotton\u201d (cotton without other material means of)<br \/>\nThe fibers are made of materials that tend to swell with moisture retaining, as we all understand tend to lose their shape. Natural fibers seems to swell more than synthetic: Cotton swells by 45%, wool about 35%, the acrylate will grow only about 5%. Cotton is more than 2-fold resistant to flow and retention of moisture. It absorbs and retains moisture and appears to have multiple retention than a sock made of Coolmax. When the cotton sock liquid is additionally ceases shock absorber, which is very important for a runner. There can breathe while the swelling of the fibers and the surface of the block with the accumulated moisture.<br \/>\nDrying Comparison: In a comparative drying time testing of various fibers, after 30 min. the Coolmax has lost 95% of moisture and cotton 50% humidity.<br \/>\nDrying Performance: By comparing the% drying efficiency-capacity, at the same time the Coolmax has 2.5 times more capacity than that of cotton.<br \/>\nOverall wear comfort: In its assessment of the overall performance and comfort, the Coolmax was rated \u201cvery good\u201d (1,9 rate) while cotton \u201cpoor\u201d (5,5 rate). The scale is evaluated with a rating of \u201cvery good\u201d up \u201cunsatisfactory\u201d.<\/p>\n                <\/div>\r\n            <\/div>\r\n        <\/div>\r\n\r\n    \r\n        <div class=\"faq-wrapper all general-question \">\r\n            <div class=\"faq-title\">\r\n                <span class=\"faq-icon fa fa-plus closed\"><\/span>\r\n                <h4>Bottle Ion8 \u2013 Environment and health<\/h4>\r\n            <\/div>\r\n            <div class=\"faq-item\">\r\n                <div class=\"faq-item-content\">\r\n                    <p>Hydration regulates your body temperature, lubricates your joints and helps transport energy boosting nutrients to give you energy and keep you healthy.

At least for all devices that use lithium ion batteries ..<br \/>\nThe Lithium Ion batteries require no initial charge, neither long nor intra-day. All lithium-ion batteries come from the factory with a charging rate. So use it as much preload you normally start after the load, without any special treatment.<br \/>\nThe above way of dealing with a new device was based even when we made use of Nickel Cadmium (NiCd) batteries and nickel hydride metal ware (NiMH) devices that you actually wanted preload.<br \/>\nMust I remove the battery from the charger once it reaches 100% because you may \u201coverload\u201d and reduce battery performance over time.;<br \/>\nThe answer is no..<br \/>\nThis advice is for earlier times have now passed the technological in past times. The lithium ion batteries have an intelligent system that once the battery is fully stopped charging by the circle.. Also itself is not harmful to let the device us for hours on the charger .. of course, the electronics do not get along with the temperature, but the chances of damage from this is almost zero ..<br \/>\nThe partial charge do damage; :<br \/>\nAlso another common mistake we hear is that we should not do partial charging.. The lithium ion batteries behave much more positively to the partial charge of the total charging. Because simply their life expectancy depends on how many total \u201ccharging cycles\u201d They will be \u201caffected\u201d in their lives. So I may have heard or read that these batteries have a lifespan eg 3000 charging cycles (charge circles).<br \/>\nWhen you hear \u201ccharging cycles\u201d is meant the charge of the total and NOT only the individual (0% -> 100% ..)<br \/>\nThat is if you charge the device in a day to once a 50% second 30% and the next morning another 20% will then classified again as fully charged regardless of whether the battery has been filled step by step. The battery has absolutely no damage from this process ..<br \/>\nOf course at some point will show some signs of performance decline, but these will be normal loss and not something caused by you.<br \/>\nThe battery must be completely empty to charge again my device;<br \/>\nThe answer here is unequivocally NO ..!<br \/>\nThis logic was true even when the batteries were based on nickel which were known as \u201cMemory effect\u201d .. Her generation batteries are really \u201churt\u201d at this point and so the shadow follows us until today ..<br \/>\nIn the generation of lithium-ion battery fully discharge can be disastrous since damaging ion battery of simple syskefon..Me words have in this generation batteries there is always an available power 5% \u2013 10% of the battery so as not to vlavi.I cause damage that can occur is to get our batteries in \u201csleep\u201d process, and directly affect the battery life of total ..<br \/>\nBut what is true in general with these batteries; :<br \/>\nLithium ion batteries \u2013 charging and discharging battery types<br \/>\nLithium ion batteries are currently used in a huge range of electrical devices, from cell phones to hybrid vehicles. They can store large amounts of energy per unit weight (contain higher energy density). This will prolong the battery life, and is lighter because lithium is the lightest metal.<br \/>\nYou can also recharge the lithium ion battery at your convenience without having fully charged or fully discharged which require other for better performance batteries. For this reason ensure better performance in vehicles, great autonomy compared to lead batteries and have twice the range and five times the lifespan.<br \/>\nThe term \u201clithium battery\u201d or \u201clithium battery\u201d refers to a group of batteries with different compositions, including many types of cathode electrodes and electrolyte.<br \/>\nLithium batteries are divided into:<br \/>\nLithium ion batteries (including lithium polymer batteries)<br \/>\nRechargeable batteries commonly used in electronic devices such as laptop, mobile phones, MP3, DVD players, GPS navigation systems, cameras, power tools.<br \/>\nLithium metal batteries (including lithium alloy batteries):<br \/>\nNon-rechargeable \/ disposable batteries that have lithium metal, which are generally used in small, portable electronic devices, such as clocks, thermometers, calculators, electronic car lock, backup computer batteries or communications equipment. <br \/> <Br \/ ><br \/>\nThe element lithium ion, having a positive electrode containing lithium oxide. The lithium ions are transferred during charging or discharging of one to the other electrode via a porous spacer sheet immersed in the electrolyte.<br \/>\nThe Li-Io elements have a nominal voltage of 3,7 V, and are offered in minimum sizes \/ capacities (what known 450mAh and 700mAh).<br \/>\nThe Li-Io was a major development in the field of electrical components, with the following disadvantages:<br \/>\nThey can not be discharged with a current greater than 2C.<br \/>\nFor safety from excessive charging current or discharge must incorporate an electronic protection circuit. Without this circuit, their use poses risk of explosion. This circuit is opened when the current value exceeds the safe limit, but do not come back (not closes) alone, unless first disconnect the battery consumption, and connect again.<br \/>\nCharging the Li-Io is a special adapter or special program complex charger. It makes use of the charging program for Li-Po, because the latter gives more voltage than allowed for Li-Io (and vice versa is allowed).<br \/>\nLITHIUM-ION POLYMER-elements (Li-Io-Po):<br \/>\nToday the most common rechargeable Lithium elements are called Lithium \u2013 Polymer. These in fact are elements &#038; quot; Polymer Lithium Ion or Li-Po.<br \/>\nFor information, there are authentic data Lithium Polymer which however can not perform at temperatures below 60 degrees kelsiou.To element Lithium Ion Polymer, the porous separator sheet is replaced by a solid polymer material sheet, while it is non-conductive in electricity, but lets go ions.<br \/>\nTheir electrodes are lithium cathode and graphite (carbon) to the anode. The Li-Po elements have a nominal voltage 3,7V. The practical voltage range is from 4,2 Volts when freshly charged, up to 3 Volts when discharged. The external difference from the Li-Ion is that elements are enclosed in a soft casing called &#038; quot; envelope &#038; quot ;. This fact makes them very light compared to all the other elements, and avoid the risk of explosion, after much pressure inside the cell can not grow, but not the risk of ignition as we shall see below. The weight \/ capacity relationship and their ability to be discharged comparatively large tension ,.<br \/>\nCaution: Work on connecting individual components together either in series or in parallel, through their bare terminals, carries risks of short circuit, which results in inflammation of the item.<br \/>\ncharging:<br \/>\nWhen they leave their factory, the Li-Po have about 50% of the Li-Io and Li-Po tous.Ta data load require specific charging parameters, which ONLY chargers manufactured for this mission (or special programs Li -Io and Li-Po charger compound) .The maximum charging voltage can be used by elements (in series) is 4,235V. In practice, the charging voltage is set at 4,2V or 4,15V for more security.<br \/>\nSimilarly, the general rule defines the maximum charging current to 1C. In the future it will definitely improve. If the voltage values or intensity during charging is larger than allowed, there is a risk of ignition of one or more elements. The flame coming out of an element Li-Po reminds firework sparkler and reaches 3-4 metra.To charging current is initially 1C, but decreases gradually as the battery is charging, and when the cell voltage reaches 4,2V, at the end of charging the intensity has fallen to 0,1-0,2C. With the initial tension 1C the battery will regain 90% of capacity in an hour, while the remaining 10% still requires 45-50 minutes.<br \/>\nCharging with current greater than allowed, will not earn as much time to compensate for the expected decrease in battery life and capacity, or the risk of ignition stoicheion.I charging can be done with the elements in series or parallel, or a combination of both. In each case the data must be exactly the same, and we do not mean what he writes the label but to behave exactly like each other, not so easy in practice .. Because then you can not be sure that in practice the elements are exactly the same after the end of charging, check the voltage of each element separately. If there is a component that has a voltage difference of the other more than 0,05V, charge or discharge the \u2013 respectively individually, to come to the level of others.<br \/>\nMay be Li-Po charger recharges in \/ Li-Io, provided that you select the correct number of items and the current value 1C. There may be charges Li-Io in LI-Po program.<br \/>\nDo not let only the lithium batteries to charge. To the supervisor very often, and to touch it with his hand to feel the potential increase in temperature. Do not recharge within the device. At home, placed the battery charge away from flammable liquids, or flammable objects, unburned area, and the best isolated in an area that will build around a brick or inside metal box, or in a glass container. Do not charge lithium batteries in the car.<br \/>\nIf you get the predicted charging time and not fully charge the battery, stop charging and considered this battery &#038; quot; disused &#038; quot ;. Also charging should definitely stop if according to the indication of the charger has gone through this capacity greater than 1,05C battery. That once discharged battery 700mAh should not go more than 735mAh. Finally if rise means that is overloaded and should be classified disused.<br \/>\nBecause the charging voltage is very critical, especially circulating voltage control circuits (overvoltage protection) inserted in the charging circuit, when they do not trust the charger.<br \/>\n\u00a0<br \/>\ndischarge:<br \/>\nThe different brands set different minimum safe voltage values for each item. The company Kokam provides a voltage discharged Li-Po cell, must not fall below 3,0V<br \/>\nThe different brands set different minimum safe voltage values for each item. The Kokam company provides a voltage discharged Li-Po element must not fall below 3,0V to stand, or 2,5 V under load. If the voltage drops at lower prices than those fixed by the company of the item, the item will spoil.<br \/>\nAll data is not the same brand, and again from those of the same brand is not all of the same generation, or the same batch. Thus we can define here the maximum discharge current with a multiple of C, as we did for other types of data. The first generation Li-Po limit the discharge current at 2-3C, and the second generation at 5-6C. Today there are elements that allow discharge to 8-20C, certainly not without loss of useful capacity, or even their lives. When you buy a new battery made up of a pen the maximum discharge current in accordance with the specifications.<br \/>\nLimiting discharge intensity per cell, can be overcome if we join two or more identical elements in parallel. For example, if an item can be discharged with a current of 5A, uniting two identical parallel we can take 10A current, three identical parallel to obtain current 15A, etc.<br \/>\nWhen a Li-Po battery is discharged with a current much higher than recommended, for several minutes, the element temperature will rise to the point that through a chemical reaction will increase the internal resistance of the elements. If this is done the battery power decreases.<br \/>\nSave-maintenance- Precautions<br \/>\nThey have lower discharge to storage. In theory this means that you can loadings today and use them after six months. But in practice things are different.<br \/>\nThe Li-Po should not remain fully charged for more than a month. If the storage with full energy and for a long time, will reduce the ability to recover all of their nominal capacity. Meanwhile, the long-term storage should be checked that the voltage will not drop below 3.0V (per item). If you are afraid that approaching the time when this will happen, charging them to 5-10%.<br \/>\nDo not crease the item. Nor to attempt to open the plastic casing.<br \/>\nDecline the disused data according to the manufacturer\u2019s instructions. If there are no other specific instructions, the first discharge, then opened holes in the softening parties casing, immerse in brine for two \u2013 three days, and then lose it in household garbage. The lithium batteries are considered environmentally friendly. Do not pierce the sheath component yet energy. Do not throw in the fire.<br \/>\nIf the liquid electrolyte in contact with skin or eyes, first rinse the area with water, and then go to the doctor. If the batteries hit violently let them over 30 minutes to see if you develop a reaction or not. The fire can come from contacting lithium with oxygen in the air. Do not try to loadings element showing even slight damage. If point rise during charging, immediately stopped charging, and removed in a safe place, because it can be ignited after some time.<br \/>\nDo not make the mistake to put on charge with reverse polarity. storage and use temperature is 0-50 degrees Celsius. Their temperature should not exceed 70 during discharge.<br \/>\nLithium batteries have no memory effect. Memory effect had earlier technologies. But what phenomenon? The additional loading on older type batteries -eg let them discharge up to 80% and after fortizame- had a bad effect on them. The battery from some point on, \u201cremembered\u201d that 80% go on \u2026 and when filling sometime like to discharge more, the battery \u201cthought\u201d that had no energy in! So the ideal in those batteries were to leave them to empty completely before putting back in charge. In lithium there is no benefit, quite the contrary.<br \/>\nManufacturers suggest doing dips discharge now and then;<br \/>\nYes, they suggest he is right. The lithium-ion and lithium polymer chemistry, no memory effect, but has \u2026 circuit that controls! The circuit described above has a \u2018database\u2019 which collects statistics and measurements continuously. Monitor that the battery performance and calculates the formulas \u201chow much capacity \u2018are the cells that control. If therefore always use the battery as it should, ie with small loads, not allowing it to drain completely, the circuit begins to emit errors in statistics and believes that the batteries hold less energy than they actually can fit.<br \/>\nHere we come to improve these statistics. Now and then, about every 30 charge-discharge cycles, should let the battery be immersed in 3% of capacity. In this manner, the circuit records the data of the actual capacitance values and thus our battery has a longer life.<\/p>\n                <\/div>\r\n            <\/div>\r\n        <\/div>\r\n\r\n    <\/div>[\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_widget_sidebar layout=&#8221;vertical&#8221; sidebar_id=&#8221;faq&#8221; num_of_col=&#8221;1&#8243;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row][vc_column width=&#8221;3\/4&#8243;][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_widget_sidebar layout=&#8221;vertical&#8221; sidebar_id=&#8221;faq&#8221; num_of_col=&#8221;1&#8243;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-2651","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v15.6.2 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>FAQ &amp; General information about materials and products AlpinPro<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Here you can find general information about AlpinPro products.
