Electric Bicycles and Electric Scooters
Elmo The Electric Bike and Electric Scooter Guy
This is an excellent blog for electric bicycles. There are not too many around like this. Thanks for making this such an interesting subject. Oh, by the way, Wired Magazine has a great article on hybrid cars this month. (Jan 2008 issue).
God Bless,
Elmo
New solar panels technology: Simply put, 'direct' solar tubes are the most efficient solar technology available. This is based on a 2001 study of all solar technologies by the Department of Trade and Industry. (Now Dept of Business).
Since then solar tubes have evolved further, and now we are proud to showcase the latest in ‘direct’ heat solar tubes, which have improved solar efficiency even further, using only the highest quality components available in the solar industry. This gives the advantage of better performance and peace of mind but with no heat exchange required, this can free up your twin coil (when applicable) for other applications such as under floor heating/bio mass stoves etc.
1. If you have a traditional ‘gravity feed’ system, with a southerly facing roof space, then you home is ideal.
2. If you have a ‘vented’ thermal store with twin/solar coil, then your home is suitable too.
3. If you have a Combi Boiler, then you will need to replace this at the end of it’s life for a condensing boiler with ‘vented’ tank.
4. If you have a ‘high pressure’ system with gauges, then you will need to replace this with a ‘vented’ tank.

Just thought I'd add some info about evacuated tube collectors. There are two types of solar collector commonly used in the UK.
- Direct Flow Solar Collectors
- Heat Pipe Solar Collectors
Both systems usually utilise an evacuated tube. This works in a similar way to your double glazing at home. It forms a vacuum barrier that stops heat transferring away from the collector and it stops the cold air cooling the heated liquid down. While this barrier is an effective heat insulator it allows most of the suns radiation to pass through into the absorber surface of the collector.
Direct flow tubes have water flowing within the evacuated tube. Heat pipe systems have a solvent that evaporates within a tube and transfers the heat to a manifold at the top of the set of tubes.
Great Blog.

Great post. I was checking continuously this blog and I am impressed! Extremely helpful info specially the last part :) I care for such info much. I was looking for this particular information for a long time. Thank you and best of luck.
