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.
