Viper Networks Gets Approval for LED Street Light Pilot Project in Colombo, Sri Lanka
October 10 2012 - 7:31AM
Viper Networks, Inc. (Pink Sheets:VPER), is pleased to announce
that the Company has entered into a formal understanding after
discussions with the Mayor of Colombo, Sri Lanka, and other top
officials to initiate a sixty (60) day pilot program for testing
Apollo Metro Solutions' LED Street Lights with installations along
a section of one of the busiest boulevards in Colombo, the
metropolis of Sri Lanka.
The primary purpose of the short-term project is to review
operational functions and confirm installation procedures for the
LED Street Light lamp and housing unit under varying light output
scenarios. The installation aspect of the pilot project will also
help determine the workforce needed for the city of Colombo to
change out existing lamps with the new LED street lights.
Shortly after the successful completion of the pilot project,
the Company anticipates LED street light order deliveries will be
determined in quarterly or semi-annual stages based on the city's
work personnel (installation) capabilities.
To help illuminate this point and the total estimated agreement
period, Viper Networks may fulfill orders totaling 200,000 LED
street light units. However, based on the city's manpower
capabilities, the Company is factoring monthly order delivery
numbers of 10,000 to 15,000 units based on direct guidance from
recent meetings with city officials.
This conveys an approximate period of 15 to 20 months to
complete delivery and installation of all 200,000 LED street
lights.
Further, interested parties should note that each LED Street
Light is priced in the range of $500 to $1000 or more per unit
depending on built-in options (i.e. camera, sensor, wireless
remote). Based on the lower 10k number of units installed monthly
at the minimum cost of $500 each, the gross amount would equal
$5,000,000 (USD) per month.
In connection with the Colombo municipal pilot project in Sri
Lanka, one of the country's ministers has expressed a strong desire
for a wireless remote access and infrastructure monitoring network
for Automated Meter Reading, which will raise the price from the
$500 minimum per unit cost and also serve as all-in-one housing
unit models to attract new customers and officials from other
cities and countries throughout the eastern hemisphere.
On this note, the Sri Lanka's Ministry of Water Management is
scheduled to visit the U.S next week for an official review of
Apollo Metro Solutions' live working Automatic Meter Reading System
prior to signing a definitive agreement for a wireless central
network with digital meters that MESH together.
The unfolding partnership between Viper Networks and Apollo
Metro Solutions is already exceeding expectations since Viper's CEO
is directly responsible for closing two Sri Lanka pilot projects
and Apollo is ahead of their first of New Year production schedule
by already manufacturing the new product line of LED Street Lights
from their new Naples, Florida operations.
The Company encourages all investors and Viper Networks
shareholders to view all LED Lighting and Intelligent Solution
products at www.ApolloMetro.com.
After six months of comprehensive on-site due diligence and
meetings with top industry professionals worldwide, Viper
management firmly believes that Apollo Metro's products represent
the 'Rolls Royce' version of LED lighting products in the world
today.
