Story #5 – Hurricane Sandy and PowerNow stories keep coming in!

November 22nd, 2012 No comments »

“When it became obvious Hurricane Sandy was going to affect our area, we stocked up on everything they tell you to: canned food, water, and of course batteries. We thought we’d use the batteries for flashlights and radios, but we actually found them most useful with the BT-USB-AA, which we used to charge our smart phones. Once we lost power, my iPhone was the only way we stayed connected to the internet and Facebook, and it allowed us to stay in contact with worried friends and family. Without my iPhone and BT-USB-AA, my family and I would have been cut off completely. The AA-battery-powered BT-USB-AA gave us instant power to our smart phones and kept us connected in a time of serious need.”

It wasn’t until Sandy hit our area, that I realized how important my iPhone or any smart phone is to staying safe and informed in times of emergency. Once the power went out and we lost cable and landlines, my iPhone kept my family and me connected to local news stations and websites with the latest storm updates. Without the ability to recharge my iPhone, we would have been left literally and figuratively in the dark. The PowerNow BT-2400 allowed me to fully recharge my iPhone during the storm without a wall outlet. I was able to stay connected to friends and family as well as find out up-to-date storm information. The LED flashlight was also surprisingly useful once the lights went out. I was able to use it to guide my way around the house while simultaneously charging my iPhone. The PowerNow BT-2400 helped me stay connected during the storm, and I’ll be sure to tell friends and family to have one on hand in case of another emergency.

Story #3 – For many of our customers ‘BT-USB-AA was the Lifeline of Hurricane Sandy’.

November 22nd, 2012 No comments »

“We have become too dependent on our smartphones. As we lost power for almost two weeks due to Hurricane Sandy, we felt safe with our Rechargeable BT-2400 for a few days but once it did run out of power things became more difficult. There was no easy way to recharge it or our smartphones due to the fear of using up our car’s gasoline by going to places that had energy. Driving our cars to go anywhere was a luxury as gasoline was scarce. Then, I remember what I had bought before, and the lifeline was clear. The AA Battery based BT-USB-AA was the perfect solution to recharge our Smartphones with the batteries that we had in the house. Thanks to the BT-USB-AA we were able to get back a little bit of normalcy by using our smartphones to listen to music, read News and most importantly Communicate with Family and Friends.”

“During the storm, my family felt safe due to the ability to recharge our smartphones and LED Lights. We were able to use phones freely and walk around the house while charging them. When our two PowerNow BT-2400s did not have power left, we charged them at a friend’s house to help us for the next night. We were out of power for a week and as soon as we got it back, our house was full of relatives that did not get power for another week. Now, they asked me to get them the same great tools from Datexx that helped us make the storm easier to handle. Now, I know what to get them for the Holidays.”

Story #1 – Hurricane Sandy taught us great lessons.

We were out of power. It was dark and cold for over a week & we were wondering when the power company would restore power over our town. No power, heat, TV, internet, communications nor safety for many people.

Surprisingly our staff and many customers felt safe and connected. They said

“The PowerNow Rechargeable Battery enabled us to charge our phones so we could check news online and communicate via Facebook and Email with friends and family. The PowerNow also gave us light to move around the house.”

When power was restored at our office, we were surprised by hundreds of online orders for people that were looking for the same power and convenience.

The orders that came in were all related to Staying Connected and Safe and were grouped as follows:

Luxury continuing care community brightens its emergency preparedness with sentina led lighting

November 3rd, 2011 1 comment »

Virginia retirement community purchases 675 Sentina LED lights to provide residents with a reliable nightlight and flashlight in case of a power outage for a fraction of the cost of installing new generators.

KENILWORTH, NEW JERSEY, November 2, 2011—At a continuing care retirement community like the Westminster Canterbury Richmond in Richmond, Virginia, the owners and staff take every measure and precaution to provide their residents with the utmost in care quality and safety. After experiencing an extended power outage due to Hurricane Irene, the management team at Westminster Canterbury Richmond purchased 675 Sentina rechargeable LED lights to install in more than 600 residences throughout the community.

According to Bob Cox, Vice President Support Services at Westminster Canterbury Richmond, “After losing power for 30 hours during Hurricane Irene, we spoke with our residents and learned there was a need to expand our emergency lighting system from hallways and common areas into the bedrooms and private residences. We looked into installing additional generators, but the cost was astronomical. So we and the residents explored the alternatives and discovered that with Sentina plug-in LED nightlights that can also be used as flashlights, we can provide an effective, energy-efficient solution to improve the safety and quality of living for our residents for a fraction of the cost of installing generators.”

After researching the benefits of LED lighting and comparing the products available, they chose Datexx’s Sentina LED-92M four-way emergency lights with sensors that detect motion, darkness and power outages. The Sentina LED-92M simply plugs into a wall socket and performs for pennies per day. The light activates only when approached, when in darkness or in a power outage. At all other times the light remains off, with no need to turn off a switch or unplug the light. When taken out of the electrical outlet, the light operates as a rechargeable emergency flash light for up to eight hours, which means there are no batteries to worry about.

“We chose the Sentina LED-92M specifically because it has several functions and features that provide added safety for our residents,” Cox continued. “We wanted a light that could be bright when needed, but also serve as a muted nightlight, and then could be unplugged from the wall and used as a flashlight without the need to replace batteries. After all, what good is a flashlight if it sits in the closet for five years and has dead batteries when you need it most? Also, the motion and power outage sensors make these better than normal lamps in some ways, because our residents don’t need to flip a light switch to turn them on if they wake up in the middle of the night. And because they are LED lights they cost very little to operate and will last basically forever, saving us a tremendous amount of money in the long run.”

According to Datexx President Mei Noguchi, “Sentina LED lighting products can help retirement and continuing care communities ensure the safety of their residents by providing bright lights that are simple to use and always there when they need them. The cost-effectiveness makes these lights the ideal solution for communities of any size on any budget, and are a simple way to increase the quality of care.”

Through the ministry efforts of the Episcopal Diocese of Virginia and the Presbyterian Synod of the Mid-Atlantic, Westminster Canterbury Richmond opened its welcoming doors to residents in 1975, providing secure independent living combined with a continuum of care. It is now one of the largest non-profit single-site continuing care retirement communities in the United States. Located in Richmond Virginia, the community has more than 1.2 million feet of living space and is home to more than 900 residents.
