Technology Associates Inc.(remembered)
The EternaLight assets of Technology Associates, Inc.
have been transfered to EternaLights, LLC. All orders
and services issues will be handled by them.
History:
In 1992,
Thomas Hoops and Derone Bryson founded Technology Associates.
In 1994, their partnership incorporated under the name
of Technology Associates, Inc. Between 1993 and 2000,
Technology Associates successfully operated a small
chain of computer stores in the Reno/Sparks area which sold
and serviced computers.
Technology Associates was also one of the founding investors
in Great Basin Internet Services (GBIS), Northern Nevada's Largest
Independent internet service provider. In 1998, TA divested itself
of GBIS. In 2000, TA divested itself of it's retail stores
to pursue manufacturing of the EternaLight flashlight
and other related and unrelated products developed by Thomas Hoops
and Derone Bryson. In 2007,
the organization formerly known as Technology
Associates, Inc., founded by Thomas Hoops and
Derone Bryson in 1992 ceased to exist.
This site, operated by MondoBeyondo, Inc. is still a
functioning sales platform for the EternaLight products
manufactured and sold by EternaLights, LLC. However,
the remainder of the site remains as it was in it's finality before
the closing of Technology Associates, Inc.
Today Mr. Bryson operates a technology consulting firm
known as Mondobeyondo, Inc. (www.mondobeyondo.com). Mr. Hoops
is privately employed in a manufacturing company as
it's CTO. After working together since 1990, through their various
projects and partnerships, Mr. Hoops and Mr. Bryson are still best friends
and continue to explore new opportunities together.

Versalux

Hi,
I want to mount a Versalux in a weather resistant case.
I understand that heat would become an issue for LED life and would need to be able to regulate the output (beside using any mechanical way to dissipate heat via the casing).
The problem is that the pot is not practical to use in a weatherized casing. Given the claimed efficiency of the unit, I assume that payload current doesn't go through the pot and that it just provides a low current control voltage.
I would rather use a 2 or 3 bits counter circuit that would provide control voltage in sequence at the touch a a single switch, thus giving me 4 or 8 preset light intensities.
I could reverse engineer your product, but I don't feel like so. Any advise?
Thanks

Sir,
The pot's wiper arm merely provides a voltage reference from 0 to 2.5 volts. You may attach the lead going to the pot's wiper arm to your own reference so long as it has a common ground and does not exceed the 2.5 volts. You may use the 2.5 volt reference at the top of the pot if you have a resistive device and save yourself the trouble of contribing the 2.5 volts. Good luck. | |
