We think that no one would argue that sunglasses are the most necessary item for summer. But not everyone agrees that their choice should be as careful and responsible as buying, for example, a bag or shoes. And it is not only about the service life of this accessory. Low-quality sunglasses can be harmful to health, so it is definitely not advisable to save money on them.

We know how attractive the low prices of stylish and up-to-date models of sunglasses in the mass-market are. But we would advise you to first get a ‘basic’ pair that will really save you from the sun’s rays, and not just serve as a fashion accessory. When choosing the perfect sunglasses for summer, you should first of all pay attention to the presence of an ultraviolet filter. It does not just ‘darken’ the surrounding space, but will also protect your eyes from UV radiation. And it is known to be harmful to the body. Over time, frequent exposure to the open rays of the sun without quality glasses can lead to various eye diseases.

The power output in three modes is 17.5, 672 and 1000 lumens. Eight-hour charging of the 3500 mA⋅h lithium-ion battery in the maximum power mode is enough for 4 hours. In this mode, the beam ‘beats’ at 300 metres. A backlit ring at the bottom of the device makes it visible from all sides to make it easier to find when dropped in the dark.

There is also a hook at the bottom of the device, which allows you to hang the torch in a tent, and with the help of a magnet – to attach it to ferromagnetic surfaces, for example, to an open bonnet during repairs.

Scottish startup SeaWarm, a subsidiary of the University of Edinburgh, has successfully tested a new technology called ‘HotTwist’. The idea is to extract heat from natural water sources that have not yet frozen and therefore store some thermal energy. It is not much, but it can be used for passive space heating.

Water can hold about 3,400 times more heat energy than air – which is why bodies of water do not immediately freeze when cold weather arrives. This will happen to most of them anyway, so taking away heat energy for human use will not create problems for the local ecosystem. A simple pump pumps the still warm water through a heat exchanger where it transfers the energy to the heat transfer medium, glycol.
