    Question for Ivan:

    How dangerous is a power back up supply.... say if one was carrying a fully charged UPS as checked in luggage on a plane. Is this dangerous? Are airport officials able to detect... just curious.

    Finally, u r forcing me to break my cover!! 

    As a person who knows a thing or two about such units and have heard a few recent stories from regular air passengers, I doubt any airline can knowingly let u get into the cabin of an airliner with a fully charged UPS unit. However, most of these units, if not intentionally abused seem to be quite safe. The one owned by UG Pulse seems to be 1 of those giant reliable models. U certainly can't board a plane with that.

    As 4 having them 4 check in luggage, my guess is as good as yours.

    Y'all seem 2 be quiet on this matter. Guilty perhaps?

    Re: Alternative Energy Solutions for Ugandans

    Altertanitve power solution for uganda is a must if we look at the problem squarely and perhaps the biggest problem is the public doesnot understand how they save from killer power Bills. The gopvernment moves into the right direction by procuring abt 80,0000 pcs of energy saver however that wont help in the long run we NEED ALTERNATIVE ENERGY SOURCE.

    Certainly i appreciate Ivan's article very timely and i hope most of us picked a few things from it.
