Litroenergy™: Cool New Technology
Litrospheres™ are self-luminous, non-toxic, and inexpensive micro-particles developed by Glowpaint, a glow in the dark paint production company. Glowpaint has developed a product called Litroenergy™ that is extremely versatile, durable, and abundant. Unlike other luminecent products, litrospheres™ give off constant light for as long as 20 years without the need of energy from the sun. They are 5000lb crush resistant, unaffected by hot and cold, and can be adapted to give off any almost any desired color. The cost to light up 8 ½ x 11 piece of plastic 1/8” thick is about .35 cents, and the technology has a lot of promise for the future. The company is already developing Litroenergy™ power cells that use the light to create energy.
“This has potential to save billions in energy costs world-wide. Litroenergy™ surpasses all known available lighting options for cost/durability/reliability and safety.” — Steve Stark, MPK Co.
