Better Generation Ltd was founded by Toby Hammond, an ecologist by training, but with a background in sustainable development consultancy. Also for the last few months, Shoko a physics graduate has joined the team. After a number of years working in fairly mainstream jobs, we felt it was time to do something practical to help everyone address that big elephant-in-the-corner, climate change. The result of our ongoing efforts is Better Generation.
As we grow, we are trying our best to minimise the environmental impacts of our business activities. This has started off with easy things like getting a renewable electricity supplier for the office, waste recycling and low energy lighting. We are continuing to look at trickier things like the carbon footprint of the products we sell (especially the energy used in manufacture and transportation). We hope you like the stuff on our site and the products on offer. There's some feedback from other folk here. contact us Our postal address is: Better Generation Ltd Company Number: 05855231 Technical stuff about this site comments (9)

The PM230 meter does show the Power Factor, as a sub-reading in Mode 2, the Amps readout. see www.energyoptimizersdirect.co.uk for PM230 meters plus Excel spreadsheets pre-formatted |

Hi, The intelliplugs I ordered arrived a few minutes ago. I have plugged one in and used the master socket on the intelliplug for my home theatre amplifier. The rest of the system, which only go onto standby, are connected to a trailing socket which is plugged into a peripheral socket on the intelliplug. The peripheral items are :-TV, Sky box and DVD player. When I now operate the shutdown sequence the whole system completely switches off instead of just going into standby mode. The intelliplug is just what I was looking for. |

Love your site, especially the installers map, which is very useful. I see that your selling the Scotty phone charger, which we used to do on our website (www.imaginationsolar.com) but we had to withdraw it as we had to many returns from people who said it just didn't work! What do you think? Also how about a review of an Imagination Solar system? If you like it, perhaps you could add it to your shop, as it's an easy one to self install. |

| Not long before EEC3 comes in hopefuly we will see a difference to the measures applied and the number of homes insulated the info so far is that it is going to be 50 to 100% bigger than EEC2 lets hope so we all have a long way to go to hit our target. |

| It's welcome to find a site that lets you compare and has negative as well as positive info. My question: is anyone working on new methods of generating power from a turning blade? It seems to me that all the turbines are based on very old technology, using alternators or similar which only start giving output when they are spinning quite fast. Isn't there a means of producing output at lower wind speeds (i.e. a much flatter output curve)? I live in what seems a windy area but the w/s is very variable and has not been above a mean of 4.5m/s recently. The small wind gauge I have poked out of a window at 8m.above ground shows gusts up to 22m/s but only the low mean. The national database for my P/code shows 4.4m/s mean, so it looks like I would never generate rated outputs - does this sound accurate to you? Apology for length of this! |

Cool price for the anemometers. I searched hi/low for identical kitand paid a good deal more. Get into the search engines and you should make a bob or two. |
