Presently  highly inefficient 60-watt light bulb badly needs a makeover. And it could be worth millions in government prize money, and more in government contracts, to the first company that figures out how to do it. "L Prize" competition is Energy Department contest that will award up to $10 million to the first person or group to create a new energy-sipping version of the most popular type of light bulb used in America.</div><br /><span class="fullpost"><br /><div style="text-align: justify;">The Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007 directs the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) to establish the Bright Tomorrow Lighting Prizes (L Prize) competition. The L Prize competition is the first government sponsored technology competition designed to spur development of ultra-efficient solid-state lighting products to replace the common light bulb.<br /></div><br /><div style="text-align: justify;">The legislation challenges industry to develop replacement technologies for two of today's most widely used and inefficient technologies: 60W incandescent lamps and PAR 38 halogen lamps. It also calls for development of a 21st Century Lamp that delivers more than 150 lm/W. The competition will award significant cash prizes, plus opportunities for federal purchasing agreements, utility programs, and other incentives for winning products.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Competition Requirements :</span><br />The L Prize competition requirements include technical specifications to ensure compliance with the general requirements outlined in the 2007 energy legislation, with additional details specified for quality, performance, and mass manufacturing.<br /></div><p style="text-align: justify;">Required metrics for the 60-Watt incandescent LED replacement, as laid out by DOE, include:</p>  <ul style="text-align: justify;"><li>Efficacy of more than 90 lumens per watt, which exceeds the efficiency of all incandescent and most compact fluorescent sources today, which range from 10 to 60 lumens per watt</li><li>Energy consumption of less than 10 watts as compared to a 60 Watt incandescent. </li><li>Output of more than 900 lumens, equivalent to a 60 Watt incandescent light bulb </li><li>Lifetime of more than 25,000 hours, which is 25X greater than a typical incandescent bulb</li><li>Color Rendering Index (CRI) greater than 90, which is a high measure of lighting quality </li><li>Color Temperature between 2700 – 3000 Kelvin, which is "warm" white light comparable to that of incandescent sources</li></ul><p style="clear: both;"><strong><a href="http://www.lightingprize.org/pdfs/LPrize-Revision1.pdf" title="PDF 194 KB">Competition Requirements</a><img alt="(PDF)" class="icon" src="http://www.lightingprize.org/images/pdf_icon_new.gif" /> </strong> (updated June 26, 2009)     </p> <p style="clear: both;"><strong><a href="http://www.lightingprize.org/pdfs/LPrizeFederalRegister.pdf" title="PDF 50 KB">L Prize Notice in Federal Register</a><img alt="(PDF)" class="icon" src="http://www.lightingprize.org/images/pdf_icon_new.gif" /></strong><br /></p><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEicr_FPaHQNzle2YNfhFH-S1F8UyPQKFKcG-AsllsbXdDlcxh70kwY9IrpMb-n2vP4_21L54JW3AwUwxsIpEIpL2ZEh8rBCfcjjX0NvgDHf_J_zv17jXUZ5H-EYeOA5A0PujBYRWHwfy1Yj/s1600-h/L+Prize+Competition+Process+Flow+Chart.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5390277731652395762" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEicr_FPaHQNzle2YNfhFH-S1F8UyPQKFKcG-AsllsbXdDlcxh70kwY9IrpMb-n2vP4_21L54JW3AwUwxsIpEIpL2ZEh8rBCfcjjX0NvgDHf_J_zv17jXUZ5H-EYeOA5A0PujBYRWHwfy1Yj/s400/L+Prize+Competition+Process+Flow+Chart.jpg" style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 234px;" /></a><span style="font-weight: bold;">L Prize Competition Process Flow Chart</span><br /></div><br /><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Selection of Winners:</span><br />Entries will be accepted for each product category until a winner is declared, or until 24 months have elapsed since the first award in that category, whichever comes first. In each category, the first entrant to successfully meet the full competition requirements will receive all prizes. Up to two additional entrants may be eligible for program partner promotions.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Opportunities for Recognition:</span><br />The L Prize competition will offer numerous opportunities for recognition. All competitors and program partners will be in the media spotlight, both on the L Prize website and in national, trade, and regional publications.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">The race is on:</span><br />DOE Solid-State Lighting Program Manager Jim Brodrick, said,"Philips is the first to submit a formal L Prize entry, demonstrating their leadership and corporate commitment to energy conservation in lighting. Philips' entry into the competition is a clear signal that massive energy savings from solid-state lighting are within our grasp. The field is wide-open, and we hope to see more entries from both large and small manufacturers."<br />          <br />Philips has delivered 2,000 prototypes of its bulb to the energy department for testing. The firm says the bulbs meet all the criteria of the contest, which specifies a bulb that reproduces the same amount and color of light made by a 60-watt incandescent bulb, but uses only 10 watts of power. It must also last for more than 25,000 hours — about 25 times longer than a standard light bulb.<br /><br />"Philips is confident that the product submitted meets or exceeds all of the criteria for the L Prize. By being the first to enter this very tough competition, Philips has demonstrated its commitment once again to playing a leading global role in lighting innovation and energy conservation," said Rudy Provoost, CEO of Philips Lighting.<br /><br />General Electric — along with Philips and Osram Sylvania, one of the world’s biggest lighting suppliers — said that it would introduce a new LED module next month that would make it easier to replace traditional light sources with LEDs. Osram had no comment about its plans.</div></span>

He tries to wash Those Parts of cars which is generally ignored at the time of cleaning of cars but those pats must be cleaned for health.  It was the will power of Gupta to have his own business that led him to explore various avenues and now he setup a company named "Mr. Car Bath" which already started working.<br /></div><br /><div style="text-align: justify;">Typically people employ the building watchman or the domestic help to wash their cars who render highly primitive methods of cleaning – the cloth dipped in a bucket of water . However After our homes and offices, a large investment that many of us as individuals make is on our cars, And also they look to taking care of their cars as if they are their baby. So These primitive methods of cleaning do no justice to the interior of the cars to third largest investment and is a highly superficial way of cleaning, so the fact that cars are personal use item is what makes people take their cars so.<br /></div><span class="fullpost"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgn7nl26-psJ4A2hX8kv2wHSEXEwHtfR9mkI9eMMFIEpfORroCglhKwLJ_qizMhiZPSIm26nTIUGMvl3VR2k3aDhyphenhyphenzNxkaYCbAsQ131gbtEjGc8vcpvdoQIO4EFIC4euoQJq1GhQckxopWl/s1600-h/Raghav+Gupta+owner+of+Mr.+Car+Bath.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5369890671209777314" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgn7nl26-psJ4A2hX8kv2wHSEXEwHtfR9mkI9eMMFIEpfORroCglhKwLJ_qizMhiZPSIm26nTIUGMvl3VR2k3aDhyphenhyphenzNxkaYCbAsQ131gbtEjGc8vcpvdoQIO4EFIC4euoQJq1GhQckxopWl/s400/Raghav+Gupta+owner+of+Mr.+Car+Bath.jpg" style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer; width: 91px; height: 120px;" /></a><br /><div style="text-align: justify;">The idea of a car cleaning service seemed so exciting and interesting that he was willing to quit his job in a multinational company in November 2007. And 2 years before Raghav Gupta of Bombay started Working on a concept of cleaning services of cars from door-to-door and when He realized that there is no professional cleaning service available  in India he started researching on this concept.<br /></div><br /><div style="text-align: justify;">As a part of his research, to Know the new technology used in Car Washing he visited Dubai, Spain, Germany and US where I learnt that cleaning of cars were not done manually, He found that cleaning with particular equipments for every part of the car gives better cleaning which is not possible manually. Gupta visited every garage and service station possible in Mumbai to know the  equipments, and methodology and even chemicals and detergent that are used for cleaning. After a lot of research work with an initial investment of Rs 4 lakh he began the service with the help of four people and provided each of them with all kind of portable and sophisticated equipments, and also with different chemicals that used for each part of the car.<br /><br />Mr Car Bath offers a range of services right from a three hour comprehensive cleaning, where they clean everything right from your tyres to your seats to even a herbal pest control for your car. And guess what all these services are provided right at your doorstep.<br /><br />Along with door-to-door service, Mr Car Bath also provides innovative services like herbal pest control and interior polishing. The price of the service varies; if a client requires cleaning only the interior of the car then it can be done. They can also disinfect the interiors from germs and infections from the car and then would be charged accordingly for that.<br /><br />Mr Car Bath Said about the services , "We have tried to make our services as value for money as  possible, the basic hygienic car wash we offer at the price of Rs 699 and we have tried to offer a comprehensive cleaning at a reasonable price, so the fact that we are low priced is our second USP and third if any is the fact that we are a frequent service provider we typically have a six month or annual contract with our customers where we do one washing every month or every alternate month or every once in 15 days."<br /><br />Initially when he started Cleaning of cars on doorstep, he was ridiculed by his friends and was named as a 'car dhonewala'. But his determination towards his business and to make his service world class led him to create a brand aptly called, 'Mr Car Bath'. But the Time has Changed he This around 2 year old company now has a turnover of 25 lakh and Right now Raghav is busy gearing up for more, He want to take Mr Car Bath to different cities in India, Bangalore, Delhi and Pune. We are looking at, considering various different car accessories, Want to add those clients which want Mr Car Bath services and Corporate Level, and want to make their service more comprehensive.<br /><br />Since His concept should have an appeal and a demand in all cities, offer services at different touch points, we want to further our goal of offering a unique travel experience. With a passion for what he is doing and the right strategy Raghav's business is clearly destined to go beyond the stars. Bollywood starImran Khan is the new fan in this case.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">customer Testimonial: </span> <span style="font-weight: bold;">Imran khan <span style="font-size:130%;">"</span></span><span style="font-style: italic;">The first day they did a six or seven  hour service where they cleaned every square inch of the car, got  toothbrushes and were rubbing in between the wheels and I was watching all this I was impressed these were guys who were putting in more effort than I did, they did a full coat over the car and I was really happy about the car, these are guys who will look after my car the way I would. Shortly after that I got a porsche Cayenne and got these guys  in to do the servicing so now they look after all my cars, and I have got to say I am really happy with their service.</span><span style="font-size:130%;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">"</span></span><br /></div></span>
