EcoFlow Launches DELTA mini Portable Power Station

Leave a comment

Perfect outdoor or worksite battery that powers 90% of devices and charges in an hour

LOS ANGELES, Sept. 5, 2021 — EcoFlow, a portable power and renewable energy solutions company, today launched the DELTA mini portable power station on HSN, the Home Shopping Network. Designed for outdoor recreation and for work backup for users who work outside or in places that lack convenient power access, the indoor/outdoor DELTA mini can power 90% of devices and appliances and be recharged from 0% to 80% in one hour.

The DELTA mini debuts today on HSN at a discounted price for the HSN Today’s Special (24 hours only) and will be available at EcoFlow’s website following that.


"The DELTA mini is the smallest – and therefore, most portable and affordable – of EcoFlow’s professional-grade DELTA portable power station lineup," said Thomas Chan, R&D Director at EcoFlow. "Our customers know the DELTA series is built for capacity and multiple devices, and asked for a truly portable and quiet option they could pack in their truck to take to worksites or to outdoor festivals. We answered with the DELTA mini to provide an eco-friendly alternative to noisy gas generators."

Powers 90% of devices and appliances

Able to be used indoors or outdoors, the DELTA mini can power 12 devices simultaneously via USB, DC, and AC outlets. It can power 90% of devices and appliances – like band saws, dishwashers, vacuum cleaners, microwaves, etc. – with powerful 1400W rated output, and can even support 1800W devices with the X-Boost technology.

The portable power station has an 882Wh capacity, which means that on just one charge, you could recharge a drone 12 times or a camera 38 times, or run a TV for 6 hours or an electric kettle for 0.5 hours. Though primarily designed for powering tools or recreational tech on-the-go, in a pinch, the DELTA mini can also be used for 11 hours’ worth of emergency backup power for lights, a fan, router, laptop and smartphones.

Industry-leading fast charging

Its proprietary X-Stream AC fast recharge can go 0-80% in one hour, and a full charge in 1.6 hours, at a maximum 900W through standard AC outlets. It is the fastest charging speed on the market, as comparable batteries can take three to seven hours to be fully recharged.

The DELTA mini can be charged in three ways – via AC wall outlets, car port or solar, achieving fast solar charging with 300W max input. Using a solar array, such as 1 x 400W panel or 2 x 160W solar panels, the DELTA mini can be fully recharged in four to eight hours.

Quiet and portability

With the running and recharge hum similar to the decibel level of a library or quiet coffee shop, this portable power station doesn’t distract from the task or entertainment at hand.

At a weight of 23 lb. – about the heft of a 24-pack of beer – and dimensions of a larger laptop, the DELTA mini is the lightest-weight and most portable model of EcoFlow’s DELTA series. Additionally, the DELTA mini’s smart inverter / adapter is built-in, so users don’t need to carry a standalone charger brick.

"Since home and local outdoor public spaces have become the center of activity these months, a number of local US municipalities are revisiting noise ordinances," said Chan. "Some are looking to decrease the maximum decibel level around homes and in public spaces, and typical gas generators will fall outside of these limits. However, the DELTA mini and other EcoFlow products are well below these limits and can keep your worksite or campsite humming."

Availability

Today’s launch of the EcoFlow DELTA mini on HSN has discount pricing of $799 and is available for 24 hours only. Following, it will be available for purchase on EcoFlow’s website for a retail price of $999.

The DELTA mini has the same interior design and quality as EcoFlow’s top-of-the-line product, the DELTA Pro. Launched this July, the DELTA Pro because the most-funded project on Kickstarter. EcoFlow also debuted another product in the DELTA series, the DELTA Max, on the pre-order platform. The crowdfunding campaign is set to end on September 12 at 10 am EST.

INFiLED Launches Cutting Edge Outdoor LED Rental Solution TITAN-X

Leave a comment

SHENZHEN, China, Aug. 31, 2021 — INFiLED, leading global manufacturer of LED displays, is delighted to officially announce the launch of its new cutting-edge outdoor rental solution, TITAN-X, after several months of hard work and dedication. As part of the INFiLED DNA, the idea behind the TITAN-X innovation is to create a long-lasting outdoor LED rental screen with excellent transparency yet remains strong.


 


Michael Hao, CEO of INFiLED, commented, "To accomplish this challenging task, we built an international R&D team of 15 engineers from both Europe and China, who after seven months of dedication to this project, finally completed TITAN-X. The beauty of TITAN-X lies in how our team combined high transparency with a super load capacity into one. The average outdoor stage screen construction needs a stage truss for every 2 meters of screen to protect against wind over 20m/s for two-tiers. However, TITAN-X needs a stage truss for every 9.6 meters of eight tiers, thanks to an elaborate built-in foldable subframe inside the TITAN frame. Moreover, the overall system remains around 30kg/m2 making it lightweight and strong which is absolutely mind-blowing."

TITAN-X high-transparency large-format outdoor touring LED solution features a pixel pith of 8.3mm and high transparency rate of 70% offering outstanding display performance for state-of-the-art stage visual effects. Each cabinet offers extensive load capacity and advanced overall stability due to its unique rear triangular foldable wind bracing system which can resist wind speeds of 20m/sec for outdoor events, while the screen can reach heights of up to 24 meters. The extra-large 1200x1200mm cabinets feature a unique design with an innovative lifting operation from the dolly that quickens installation time to a new level.

Its dedicated dolly system allows for easy transportation and makes installation more efficient. The foldable bracing design of each cabinet saves on storage space and even with extra accessories, the cabinets can still be transported in their dollies. Featuring a high brightness of 5000nits and IP65 protection, it´s a reliable and robust choice under any light and weather conditions. The TITAN-X can be customized and assembled at angles of ±15 giving it the ability to adapt to unlimited stage and creative design requirements such as a curve effect. 

The INFiLED TITAN-X is expected to be available from August 2021.

About INFiLED

INFiLED is a leading high-tech enterprise specialized in developing and manufacturing large format LED display solutions. INFiLED’s product application range covers digital signage, transportation, sports, events, command & control, corporate branding and meetings, creative applications and many more.

Qeeka Home 2021 Interim Revenue Up 66.5% to 524 Million RMB

Leave a comment

SHANGHAI, Aug. 27, 2021 — On August 24, Qeeka Home (01739.HK, operator of Jia.com in China) (the "Company"), a SaaS enabled solution platform serving China’s interior design and construction sectors, released its H1 2021 financial results. For the first half year of 2021, the Company’s total revenues increased by 66.5% year-over-year to 524 million RMB (approx. US$81 million), while revenue from the SaaS and Extended Services business rose by 38.4% to 309 million RMB. Adjusted net profit attributable to shareholders improved to 20.54 million RMB, up 286.3% year on year.

The solid growth in revenue was attributed to Qeeka Home’s implementation of its SaaS strategy, which assisted home improvement and interior design firms in adapting to industry changes and in embracing new industrial forms. The roll-out of the strategy helped the home improvement sector recover, while significantly enhancing the Company’s operational efficiency. "Aggressive and effective empowerment initiatives have helped us to increase the amount of business we receive from our active paying merchants and enhance their stickiness, as well as significantly heighten our appeal to the home improvement firms and interior designers that have not yet registered on our platform," said Qeeka Home chairman and CEO Deng Huajin.

Revenue from the main business grew 38.4%, with SaaS services as the core driver

As one of the largest service platforms serving China’s home improvement sector, Jia.com continued the roll-out of its SaaS service platform strategy, providing home improvement firms with comprehensive business solutions covering marketing, supply chain procurement and SaaS services, helping them to improve their core competitiveness in terms of marketing, branding and supply chain, to precisely target potential customers, reduce costs and increase efficiency, while empowering them to expand efficiently.

During the first half of 2021, the minor COVID-19 outbreaks in China nevertheless impacted industrial production and people’s daily lives. Against this backdrop, the digital transformation of virtually every industry in China became an inevitable "must do". For a long time, the home improvement and interior design sectors, due to their inherent nature, had been characterized by many pain points such as low access threshold, long industry chain, great dependence on offline delivery and difficulties in standardization and transformation. The pandemic hit home improvement firms that had not yet started their digital transformation hard, leaving them struggling or even experiencing negative growth.

Having been a player in the home improvement and interior design sectors for many years, Qeeka Home has collected a massive amount of industry data and practical experience by virtue of having served tens of thousands of firms. This has led Qeeka Home to be a driver in improving the efficiency of the industry by empowering the digital upgrade of the firms. The Company supports across-the-board digital upgrades of home improvement firms covering all chains, providing a practical path for the firms to cope with the COVID-19 crisis and realize rapid transformation.

The interim report shows that Qeeka Home’s businesses currently consist of two main segments – SaaS and Extended Service Business as well as Interior Design, Construction and other Business. The SaaS and Extended Service Business segment is further broken down into sub-segments including SaaS, Marketing Services and Supply Chain Service. As the Company’s core business, the SaaS and Extended Service Business booked revenue of 309 million RMB for the first half, up 38.4% year-on-year. SaaS subscription fees reached 15.33 million RMB, up 52.5% year-on-year, while marketing revenue rose to 265 million RMB, up 38.8%.

Qeeka Home said that the solid growth was mainly driven by the increase in revenue from the SaaS and Extended Service Business due to the increase in the number of active paying merchants, and by the continuous optimization and adjustment in the Company’s internal structure. This has improved the organizational and operational capabilities of the team and resulted in significant cost reduction and efficiency gains. At the end of the first half of 2021, the number of new paying merchants on the platform had climbed to 1,082, with a merchant retention rate of 93%, a testament to the company’s sound growth.

With the gradual increase in the industry-wide digitalization rate, Qeeka Home’s SaaS-enabled strategy began to serve as the industry’s digital infrastructure, providing a one-stop solution to the home improvement firms that need to digitize their marketing, operation and supply chain services. Meanwhile, the strategy also became Qeeka Home’s core growth driver.

Active paying merchants increase by 33.8%: improving industrial efficiency through digitalization

China’s home improvement and interior design market is valued at some trillion RMB, with demand for home improvement and the outfitting of new homes remaining stable. According to the 2020 China Internet Home Improvement Industry Report published by Fastdata, the overall size of the market in 2020 had reached 2.61 trillion RMB. Despite the market’s massive size, the Matthew Effect of accumulated advantage in the industry is obvious. The digitalization rate is low, with only 9.7% of transactions happening online and only 19.2% of the firms having undertaken or in the process of digitalizing. As a result, actively embracing digital transformation has become a consensus across the industry.

As a professional service platform serving the industry, Qeeka Home, by grasping the opportunities brought about by the industry’s ongoing digital transformation, has adjusted and optimized its own development logic and service system. The Company has also put further focus on integrated SaaS solutions for home improvement firms based on SaaS subscription services, which are synergistically empowered by marketing services, supply chain procurement and innovative value-added services. In other words, Qeeka Home hopes to use its rich big data and technology-enabled capabilities to help home improvement firms solve the operational inefficiency and frequent inability to truly compete due to the lack of digitalized operations.

Qeeka has assumed a leadership role in the provision of home improvement and interior design SaaS solutions. As for digital marketing, Qeeka Home has not only collected a huge number of sales leads, but also helped home improvement and interior design firms achieve efficient transformation by optimizing big data matching, building a high-quality home improvement content ecosystem, upgrading user protection plans and creating live streaming tools.

In terms of supply chain empowerment, Qeeka Home has joined forces with many high-quality building materials brands in China and abroad, to create a comprehensive supply chain covering main materials, accessories and soft furnishings, helping the firms procure products via digital means, greatly reducing back-end procurement costs and improving procurement efficiency. Enhanced offerings have also become another venue for attracting new customers.

Digital marketing and supply chain empowerment can better help home improvement firms reduce costs and increase efficiency, and Qeeka Home’s innovative value-added services can better help these firms improve service quality and establish a good brand image, enhancing their ability to provide superior services. Qeeka Home’s special services include the Qijia Bao consumer protection plan and the Merchant Service Integrity Alliance. The Qijia Bao consumer protection plan is so well known across the industry that it is often referred to as the sector’s "Alipay" (China’s leading merchant payment solutions provider), and has become a standard service that protects the rights and interests of users on the Jia.com platform. The Merchant Service Integrity Alliance requires the firms in the Alliance to meet credible service standards by setting up dynamic labels.

Both the Qijia Bao consumer protection plan and the Merchant Service Integrity Alliance both act as incentives for merchants to strive to provide excellent service process and quality, protecting shoppers’ interests. After years of iteration and optimization, all of Qeeka Home’s special services have matured and earned good reputations. Qeeka Home empowers merchants with its good brand image and standardized services, which not only strengthens the shoppers’ trust in the merchants, but also enhances the merchants’ capabilities.

Data shows that the number of active paying merchants on the Jia.com platform increased by 33.8% to 5,667 during the first half of 2021. The merchant loss rate dropped by half while the retention rate was further improved. The 93% retention rate is the result of the merchants’ satisfaction with Qeeka Home’s services. Home improvement firms that opt for digital transformation are the direct beneficiaries of Qeeka Home’s SaaS empowerment strategy, while the improvement in the competitiveness and service quality of the firms will ultimately benefit consumers and do wonders for the user experience.

Qeeka Home plans to continue consolidating its position as the most impactful home improvement SaaS service provider in China, while continuing to expand its partnerships with merchants based on its SaaS strategy, in a move to further improve merchant retention rate, help home improvement firms improve their services and management capabilities, further reduce costs and increase efficiency, and enhance user experience.

Anycubic’s Photon Ultra, the New DLP 3D Printer, Launches on Kickstarter

Leave a comment

SHENZHEN, China, Aug. 23, 2021 — Anycubic, the established 3D printer brand known for its high-quality and affordable printers, is coming to Kickstarter with a world premiere: the world’s first affordable, high-precision DLP 3D printer for consumers. The Anycubic Photon Ultra features an exclusive debut of Texas Instrument’s latest DLP technology, which brings many advantages to users, such as: low to no maintenance, extremely high-resolution prints, and much lower power consumption. DLP printers are superior to LCD based 3D printers in printing small and narrow models, but have always been prohibitively expensive, until now. Anycubic is aimed to solve this problem and fit the needs of its customers.


Main benefits of Anycubic Photon Ultra

High-precision printing

Although the specified resolution of this DLP printer Anycubic Photon Ultra is rated at 720p, its print quality is even better than that of 2k/4k monochrome LCD screen printers. This is because DLP printers use a different technology to project light compared to LCD printers. DLP printers use a projector that reflects all the light to a pixel via a micromirror, therefore, there is no light convergence, achieving crisper black-white contrasts. LCD printers converge all the light to a pixel, which can cause bumps and shadows on the edge of models. When displaying thin lines and small-size texts, DLP printers are clearer than LCD printers with purer colors and richer layers, resulting in more delicate texture and sharper corners of models.

 

Longer durability

LCD screens are a consumable, which need to be replaced every 3 to 5 months. The Anycubic Photon Ultra does not have an LCD screen and the internal projector enables the printer to be used for more than 20,000 hours. This means the average user saves about $600 on LCD screen replacements. With a Kickstarter price tag of $399, most people will have more money saved than they spent on the Anycubic Photon Ultra!

Energy saving

The fact that the Anycubic Photon Ultra doesn’t require high maintenance LCD screens is already a big step forward in creating an environmentally friendly 3D printer. The machine is also much more energy efficient, which further improves its impact on the environment. The Anycubic Photon Ultra DLP printer operates at 40% light efficiency, which is 15 times higher than the 2.5-3% that LCD printers usually operate at. It uses far less energy and is rated at 12W with an average power consumption of 8.5W. The printer consumes between 0.017 – 0.034 kWh to print a 100mm high model,

Whisper quiet printing

Lower power consumption equals less heat, which means the Anycubic Photon Ultra doesn’t need any cooling fans, making it truly whisper quiet.

Smooth edges

With 16 x anti-aliasing the edges and corners of prints are smoothed out, reducing layer lines and post-processing time.

Fast print speed

Anycubic Photon Ultra’s print speed is about 1.5s per layer, comparable to LCD printers like Photon Mono X, whose speed is 1.5 – 2s per layer. Compared to SLA’s point light source printing, its speed is up to 5 times faster.

Wide range of resin options

Anycubic Photon Ultra has options for adjustable UV power, which makes the printer suitable for use with a wide range of resins, giving users endless possibilities and creative freedom.

Better adhesion

The print bed has been laser engraved for enhanced platform adhesion and evenness, ensuring prints have a higher success rate and better stability.

User friendly interface

The Anycubic Photon Ultra debuts printing settings to be modified directly on the printer via the color touch screen, making it easier to adjust and optimize without a computer.

Price & Crowdfunding details

The Anycubic Photon Ultra is making its worldwide debut on the crowdfunding website Kickstarter, where it will be available at just $399 for the first 100 backers and $499 for normal price. After Kickstarter, Anycubic Photon Ultra’s price on Amazon will be over $599.

Anycubic Photon Ultra is launching on Kickstarter on September 15th, 2021, where it will be available for pre-order in a worldwide exclusive. We are using crowdfunding to match the innovative spirit of our customers, who are trailblazers in the creative community, always embracing the new. Our campaign will last for approximately one month, offering many benefits, discounts and special promotions to our early supporters. After Kickstarter, backers will be the first in the world to receive their Anycubic Photon Ultra, and later in the year it will become available via the regular Anycubic distribution channels at a slightly higher price.

Kevin Ling, as a Gen Z entrepreneur, initiated GERZZ INTERACTIVE from his passion and interest in LARP game. In 2020, due to the impact of the epidemic, Kevin Ling returned to China from the United States. He surprised found that LARP was developing with an rapid speed both in content and form . He sensed that LARP has huge potential in overseas market. Thus, he decided to start his own business in this field.

At the beginning, the team consisted of 9 college students. With a strong academic background from Carnegie Mellon University, they decided to create an online LARP app to connect students. Initially, Kevin and his team tried to develop a mini-program to recruit players online and play the game offline. Afterwards, the team is developing an LARP App which players can enjoy the game online. Till now, the company owns 32 stuff.

HALO JUBENSHA plans to be launched in September this year. The obvious difference between HALO and other types of software is that HALO has DM (Dungeon Master, the host of the game). It is the first LARP app with the DM in global market. The DM will be trained by professional teachers who have rich experience in voice-controlling and acting.

The script is outstanding. All of the scripts which were previously popular offline are brought to this online platform. This is a mature and high-end boutique route. Besides, some good script has elements of Chinese traditional culture, which is helpful to broadcast Chinese culture abroad.

In 2020, the LARP industry in China has a market valued over 20 billion RMB. Under an era where innovation matters, long-term success requires consistent creation on high-quality product. GERZZ plans to cooperate with other game companies to develop IP for the content. Meanwhile, GERZZ aims to build their own writer team.

GERZZ focuses on new development of software on mobile Internet. They hope to lead an entertainment revolution globally.

Bluetti Power Week Starts Now: Here’s all the latest info.

LAS VEGAS, Aug. 21, 2021 — On June 23rd, Bluetti updated and upgraded their product line, adding 4 new power horses to the fleet. This took the form of the all new AC200 MAX – the one of a kind, industry first AC300 battery modules: The 2048Wh B230 and the 3072Wh B300.

Bluetti is pleased to announce that the AC200 MAX and B230 battery modules are now ready for customers to order. The AC300 and B300 will be available a month later, on September 15th.

Bluetti’s New Releases Are Now Available To Order!

The AC200 MAX & B230

Once again, Bluetti have delivered. The AC200MAX is an all-round upgrade of the much-loved AC200P. The MAX welcomes up to two B230’s or B300 battery modules. Connecting both can boost the total capacity to a staggering 8192Wh! Oh, and did we mention that this machine will now allow 900 watts of solar input, a 28% increase over its predecessor.

For the RV enthusiast’s out there, the AC200 MAX has a specially designed built-in 30A NEMA TT-30 outlet.

In addition to this, the AC200 MAX supports Bluetooth connection and can be controlled wirelessly with the new Bluetti Smartphone App (iOS & Android).

(Bluetti AC200MAX and B230 are now available at Bluetti Power Week, Starts at $500 OFF, Click Here To Learn More)

AC300 & B300

If raw power is what’s required, look no further. The AC300 is entirely modular with the main unit housing the 3000 watt pure sine wave inverter. When you see the amount of power this machine is able to accommodate, you will understand why Bluetti made the AC300 modular.

Each AC300 needs to be paired with at least one 3072Wh B300 battery but can accept up to 4 battery modules. That’s 12,228Wh of capacity right there.

To put this into perspective, the complete system now comes in at a weight of 340lbs. See why they made this modular?

This groundbreaking power doesn’t end there. The Fusion Box Pro will allow individuals to pair two AC300’s together, boosting the entire system up to 240V, 6000W. It’s easy to see the direction that Bluetti are going with this – now it is possible to connect a total of 8 B300 battery modules to an entire system. A fully stacked system will grant 24,576Wh of capacity, that’s enough stored energy to power a home for nearly a week.

Last but not least, the AC300 is able to support 2400W solar input, while the fully stacked version allows for 10,400W.

Bluetti is going to release the 3,000-watt product on September, 15th. You may enter here to get the $800 off early bird discount by subscribing.

B230 and B300 Battery Modules

Bluetti is proud to announce the latest "industry first" innovation, the modular power products that are the B230 and B300. Both the B230 and B300 can be charged and discharged as a standalone power module and both feature various DC outlets, including a 100W USB-C, a 12V/10A car output, and some USB-A ports.

Additionally, both battery modules are able to soak up 500W of AC power via an AC to DC adapter. Not to mention the B300 even has its own 200W (MPPT-ready) solar inlet just in case power storage starts to run low in a tricky situation – like during an off-grid camping trip.

One More Thing: The Enhancer (D050S)

Introducing a small, yet mighty game-changing component – the Enhancer D050S.

Just as its name implies, the Bluetti DC charging Enhancer (hereinafter referred to as DC Enhancer or Little Magic Box) is the enhancement tool for the DC inlets (the DC7909 port for adapter) on the Bluetti units.

The DC Enhancer has a built-in MPPT charge controller with voltage regulator circuits, allowing this little box to juice up current Bluetti products in a variety of additional charging ways.

With the help of the new DC Enhancer, it’s now possible to increase the overall capacity of previous Bluetti models like the EB150 and EB240 by connecting the latest Bluetti battery modules or lead-acid batteries. Alternatively, it can even be charged via the 12V/24V cigarette lighter port in a car.

Individuals who own either the AC200P or EP500 may wonder what this little box could do for them, after all, a solar generator is already capable of supporting car or battery charging on its own.

Well, how does an extra 500W of solar charging capability sound?

For example, the DC Enhancer can boost the solar charging rate of the AC200P up to 1200W. This means that one can effectively charge up the 1700Wh/2000Wh unit in 2~2.5 hours with prime outdoor sunshine. Enter here to learn more about this magic box.

A Bonus for All Current Bluetti Product Owners

(Current owners of an AC200P or AC200 who want to get Bluetti’s latest battery module product can do so for free)

The older Bluetti models are capable of accommodating extra battery capacity with the help of the new Bluetti DC Enhancer. However, for some of the special models, supporting more than one extra battery module is no problem at all.

For example, the AC200P or AC200 can take one battery module via its solar input port with a converter cable.

However, with the additional help of the DC Enhancer it is not possible to add an extra battery module to the 500W AC inlet. Doing this will add a total of 6144Wh (two B300’s) additional capacity to the current Bluetti unit.

Power Week Massive Sale

Except for the new releases, Bluetti is also offering a discount for some of the other popular models:

  • AC200P is now at $1599 ($400 off)
  • EB240 for $1399 ($500 off)
