An Investigatory Project of Thermoelectric Emergency Light Using Gasera and Water

Vol.3, No.1D

Abstract

 Even before technology, light played a major role in our everyday lives. Light makes everything easier and safer by providing us the ability to see everything that's around us. It is indeed essential to humanity's survival. It comes from different sources. It may come from the sun or at night from an alternative source that may or may not require electricity. But now that we're in the middle of a global crisis caused by excessive use of fossil fuels, using too much electricity might cause us danger. The construction of a Thermoelectric Emergency Light will help address the issues relating to too much electricity consumption and provide a device that supplies its electricity needs. This study aims to lessen electricity consumption and provide a convenient alternative light source.  

The research approach used in this study was quantitative experimental. Experimental design is the process of doing research in an objective and controlled manner to optimize precision and reach a particular conclusion about a hypothesis statement. The statistical treatment used for this study was Frequency and Percentage to determine the difference between the two groups of Respondents. The researchers used a questionnaire as a research tool to conduct a survey to determine the model's level of acceptability in terms of construction materials, designs, methods, mechanisms and presentation. The Respondents of this study are composed of 3 Technicians and 3 Electricians.

The following procedures were undertaken in the process of developing the model. They were preparing the blueprint and materials, constructing the prototype and testing the functions of the product. The study results regarding construction materials, designs and procedures, mechanism, and presentation are Highly Acceptable as assessed by the Electricians and Technicians. The overall mean of the Electrician was 2.24, interpreted as Moderately Acceptable, and the Technician had a mean of 1.85, interpreted as Moderately Acceptable. The t-critical was 1.86, and the t-computed was 3.09. It indicates no significant difference between the assessments of the two groups of respondents. Respondents suggested that for future improvements to the project, look for more affordable materials and use a machine for better power lighting supply. Aside from that, researchers should consider creating more elegant designs and managing their time more wisely and responsibly. Improve the model to advance the development of this study, which will be useful in the future.
