ABOUT EET'S INVENTION: Energy Economizer Technology was invented by Dr. Louis W. Parker and Mr. Rhey W. Hedges, who engaged in privately funded research from 1974 through 1985. Their cooperation produced a variety of Parker/Hedges patents. Dr. Parker's lifelong worked earned him
an induction into the National Inventors Hall of
Fame along side such notable inventors as Thomas
Edison and Alexander Bell. While Mr. Hedges continues his forty-so years in the elctronic control
industry.
Most recently, Mr. Hedges began working on
Brain Communication
Research, Inc., a non-profit, company, that was founded to develop
Electronic Glasses and other inventions in the public
interest.
The actual discovery moment was described by
Rhey later in an interview: "Sometimes inventors are lucky." What
was lucky was that Rhey noticed an undulating trace on the oscilloscope in
his lab that that changed slightly as load varied. Fortunately for
everyone, Rhey was curious enough to investigate further.
With Rhey's background in in radio he realized that
the trace or sidebands he was seeing were vital information. Later
that "information" combined with Hedges and Parker's knowledge of
convential power control circuits, ended in a device that can reduce huge
amounts of power normally wasted by common motors. This process is
what Parker called Energy Economizer
Technology. |

BASIC TECHNICAL OPERATION: Briefly stated, EET based products reduce a variety of costs associated with the operation of electric motors. Like a supervisor standing at each electric motor, EET Power Managers maintain highest efficiency by ‘managing' a motor and the wiring that feeds the electric power used by the motor. When controlled by a motor, EET is a Power Management System. EET reflects the view of Mr. Hedges that motors transmit their workload need for power in a way that is electronically detectable and thus may command AC motor power without artificial references. |
