BOLD STOCK ALERT FOR FRIDAY, MARCH 4: InfoSpi, Inc. (OTCQB: ISPI) – Yesterday the Stock Tested Recent Highs – Look for Potential Break-out with Volume

InfoSpi, Inc. (OTCQB: ISPI) operates within the energy saving lighting industry through its wholly owned subsidiary NexPhase Lighting, Inc.

The Company is a designer and developer of proprietary high quality LED (light-emitting diode) lighting fixtures and control systems for commercial applications. It believes its products will be the lowest cost, highest efficacy fixtures available in the LED Lighting Industry. ISPI is involved in the marketing and selling of NexPhase’s products.

Commercial Applications Growth Area

ISPI is focused on the next big LED lighting growth area: commercial applications. LED lighting is anticipated to reach an inflection point in the next five year as solid state lighting costs come down and performance increases, LEDs will become a practical option for an increasing number of commercial applications. LED lighting for retail and office and professional and institutional buildings is anticipated to be the next big growth area.

Market for Commercial LED Lighting

Lighting accounts for about 17.5% of global electricity use and, within the United States, the majority of lighting energy is consumed in commercial buildings. Recent innovations in lighting technologies, particularly the development of solid state lighting using light emitting diodes (LEDs), hold significant long-term potential for energy savings in the commercial building sector. LED lighting will become an increasingly important segment of the market, and by 2020 it will achieve a 46% penetration of the $4.4 billion U.S. market for lamps in the commercial, industrial, and outdoor stationary sectors.

NexSense Technology(TM)

All NexPhase lighting products incorporate its proprietary “NexSense Technology(TM),” which provides benefits well beyond the generally acknowledged advantages of all other LED lighting fixtures. NexSense control systems use a unique, “patent pending’ wireless protocol, which provides for an unsurpassed reduction in architecture and infrastructure installation cost in commercial applications, as well as significantly reduced maintenance and ongoing operation costs.

NexPhase is in the business of designing, developing, manufacturing and marketing a high quality and high efficiency full line of LED intelligent lighting fixtures and control systems for commercial applications and projects involving both new construction and retrofits (the “LED Lighting Fixtures”). In its planned manufacturing, NexPhase will use the highest quality products in the manufacture of its LED Lighting Fixtures in order to provide its customers with an approximate six-year or 50,000 hour warranty on its fixtures.

It will utilize Cree and other leading manufacturer LEDs and photo-metrics and thermal management in the manufacture of all LED Lighting Fixtures, and management believes that the resultant NexPhase LED Lighting Fixtures produced will be of the highest quality and highest reliability of any lighting products. The LED Lighting Fixtures being developed are as follows:

  • Downlight troffer;
  • Reflective troffer, which adds an architectural flair to any space;
  • High-bay fixtures, which provide a 50-70% energy savings over metal halide and high pressure sodium high bays;
  • Low-bay and parking garage fixtures, which provide a 50-70% savings over metal halide and high pressure sodium high bays;
  • MR-16 lamps with approximate 90% energy savings over conventional MR-16 with significantly less heat; and (vi) PAR 38 lamps with approximately 90% energy savings over conventional MR-16 with significantly less heat.

The LED Lighting Fixtures will be able to be controlled through a variety of means. Permissions and the types of controls authorized are assigned during set-up. Fixtures or groups of fixtures can be controlled via a hand-held remote control, through any smart phone (i.e., iPhone) or via the computer. Moreover, the LED Lighting Fixtures are designed to be intelligent. They incorporate a MESH networking technology which allows the fixtures to communicate with each other wirelessly. The set-up and management of the LED Lighting Fixtures allows for the combining of multiple fixtures into a given group, that is, specific offices, hallways, stairwells or conference rooms.

NexSense Technology – Cutting Edge

NexPhase also has a patent pending “NexSense” technology that provides customers with an additional edge in lighting management and a return on investment. The LED Lighting Fixtures incorporate advanced sensory features that expand a customer’s energy saving beyond just the use of energy saving LEDs as follows:

Proximity Sensing. The most energy saving light fixture available is one that is not on. Therefore, building on this premise, the NexPhase Proximity Sensor monitors movement within a given space and either dims or shuts the lights off if no movement has been sensed within a given period of time (configurable by the user).

Ambient Light Sensing. This sensor takes advantage of the sun’s free light energy. Once the occupant of an office sets the light level they like within their space, this sensor monitors the light level throughout the day. If more light comes into the office as the sun rises, the sending system reduces the amount of light being given off by the fixture to ensure the light level within the space remains the same. The reverse is also true. If storm clouds move in and block the sunlight that was previously coming into the space, the sensing system increases the amount of light from the fixture up to the maximum output.

Management believes that its LED Lighting Fixtures will provide further additional benefits:

  • Higher quality lighting as compared to standard lighting systems
  • Reduced heat generation resulting in lower HVAC costs in warm environments
  • Elimination of the release of mercury and other harmful chemicals into landfills at the end of the fixtures life cycle
  • Less energy consumption to run the fixtures, which results in less green house gases released into the atmosphere
  • Lower maintenance costs for business owners associated with the replacement of standard lamps and tubes based upon the LED Lighting Fixtures lifespan of 50,000 to 60,000 hours
  • Easy installation and individual fixture programmability
  • Instant “on”
  • Vibration and shock resistant

Future Use of LED Lighting in Hospitals

LED lighting is the future of lighting for hospitals in an economic sense from the energy cost savings, lifespan and maintenance perspectives, but it also can reduce medical errors, increase staff effectiveness and support more positive patient outcomes.

Private financing can pay for the total cost out of a percentage of energy savings with little or no upfront costs. Additionally, LED systems produce less heat, which helps reduce HVAC costs.

Moreover, the expansion of utility and governmental incentives can further reduce the cost barriers to its implementation. The article points out that among hospital administrators, it is generally acknowledged that as LED technology evolves and pricing drops, hospitals will move toward LED lighting.
