Forpligtelse til ansvarligt spil Danmark er stolt af sine stærke lovgivningsmæssige rammer, som sikrer, at spilaktiviteter udføres retfærdigt og ansvarligt. Den danske Spillemyndighed fører tilsyn med alle spiloperationer og håndhæver strenge regler, der beskytter spillerne. Dansk lov kræver, at operatørerne giver klar information om risici ved spil, så spillerne kan træffe informerede valg. Desuden er initiativer, der har til formål at fremme ansvarligt spil, i højsædet i det danske spillelandskab.

Denne brugervenlige platform giver enkeltpersoner mulighed for at tage kontrol over deres spillevaner ved at sætte personlige grænser eller vælge en midlertidig eller permanent selvudelukkelse. ROFUS blev lanceret for at forbedre spillernes sikkerhed og sikrer, at personer, der kan være i fare for at få spilleproblemer, kan søge hjælp og få adgang til støtte. Ved at stille et centralt register til rådighed fremmer det ikke kun en kultur med ansvarligt spil, men styrker også integriteten i spilindustrien i Danmark. En kultur af fællesskab og sjov Danske spillere nyder godt af en unik blanding af sociale spiloplevelser, både online og på fysiske kasinoer. Kammeratskabet mellem spillerne er et afgørende træk ved den danske spillekultur, hvor deling af strategier og fejring af gevinster skaber et indbydende miljø. I takt med at branchen udvikler sig, er Danmark fortsat forpligtet til at fremme en sikker og fornøjelig spilleatmosfære. Med nye spil, spændende events og ansvarlige regler på plads ser fremtiden for spil og gambling i Danmark lysere ud end nogensinde. Contact Details Oliver Damgaard +45 27 35 72 27 oliver@cspeed.com

Su-vastika, an Indian Startup, has Announced the Launch of 1S to 48S Wireless Handheld Cell Voltage Tester

Rev Up Marketers

Su-vastika, a popular Indian Startup in the Green energy space, has announced the launch of a pocket-sized 1S to 48S Handheld Cell Voltage Tester to help users maximize their battery life. Developed under the mentorship of Kunwer Sachdev (founder Su-kam), this HandHeld Cell Voltage Tester aims to help maintain peak battery performance by monitoring battery health. Its unique, simple touch operation helps anyone to accurately measure the cell voltage of each cell within a battery pack, getting a clear and concise assessment of the overall condition. This can measure the cell voltage wirelessly through Bluetooth and Wi-Fi with an accuracy of 1%, which gives the user an idea of how BMS works in the lithium battery pack. Also, it has proprietary software that can be downloaded through the iOS and Android applications on mobile phones. As one of the major works of BMS is to equalize the battery cell voltages and in case of any cell voltage not being equalized due to any reason, it will give the alarm and give the data through Bluetooth and wifi. One can change the BMS or the particular cell of the lithium battery pack in case the cell voltages are not appropriately balanced. Su-vastika already has a patent for this cell measuring technology and is working on the next model to be launched in 2025. Talking to the media, Kunwer Sachdev said, "Our 1S to 48S Handheld Cell Voltage Tester not only helps rapidly and accurately access the performance of your batteries, but it also helps anyone to track battery health and identify potential issues. By detecting faults early, users can now take proactive steps to address them, thus helping to prolong battery life and ensuring optimal performance." He also told the media that the company is soon working on other models, developing the model up to 120S and launching the next model with the IR measurements of the battery pack and cell pack level. Key Product Features: Simultaneous Voltage Measurement: Temperature ports: Real-Time Data Analysis: Versatile Applications: Key Advantages: The Handheld Cell Voltage Tester by Su-vastika comes with Wireless Connectivity and Data monitoring. Customers can view the battery voltage data directly on their device's screen.,. The data is updated in real-time, allowing remote monitoring and data recording to be analyzed or used for comparison. Users can start by pairing the tester to their device using Bluetooth or Wi-fi. They can then use the app developed to view and analyze the data. The tester sends the battery voltage data to their device wirelessly.

Birdfy Announces New Educational Initiatives to Promote Conservation and Appreciation of Beautiful Birds

Rev Up Marketers

The bird charity organization known as Birdfy unveils a range of educational activities designed to increase public awareness about the attractiveness of birds in different regions of the world. These initiatives are also intended for raising awareness of the public on the most crucial aspects of ecological values of pretty birds, and the need to protect their natural environment. At Birdfy, we strive to share informative content about the birds that are so wonderful and unique on this world. The organisation understands that knowledge is key to the creation of a relationship between the people and nature. With this understanding, Birdfy will launch awareness programs- a set of programs primarily in the field of ornithology whereby Birdfy will educate people about aspects such as bird behavior, their habitats, and their importance in the ecological system. Another important component of the plan refers to the implementation of bird conservation into the framework of known schools and nature centers projects. The information presented in educational materials will include both general information about beautiful birds as well as their significant impacts to ecology. There will be outcome based workshops and seminars being facilitated by professionals in the field to make sure that the presentations given to the participants share up to date and interesting facts about birds. This is the primary reason Birdfy wants to make interactive learning about beautiful birds. Such activities will comprise remote guided tours around the bird environments, bird watching tutorials, birds of interest talks which are all fun and interactive for the bird enthusiast across all ages. Birdfy operates with the goal of creating an interest in birdwatching as well as engaging individuals in environmental conservation courses. This initiative will therefore describe the most beautiful bird species in the world as follows; The peacock, scarlet macaw, flamingo, toucan, golden pheasant, majestic quetzal, Victoria crowned pigeon, Atlantic puffin, hyacinth macaw and the mandarin duck. The gist of each profile willas include information about its geographical location, behavior and its conservation status. This kind of education will go a long way in making the masses aware of how ecosystems are maintained, and the effects of habitat destruction, and climate change on beautiful birds globally. And to augment such an advocacy, Birdfy aims to set up an online platform where users would be enlightened about facts regarding birds, talk to others in forums, and do many more. This platform will provide information dissemination and sharing services between bird enthusiasts who support the beauty of bird lives. To this end, Birdfy goes further than simply educating people about birds and bird conservation. The organization will also provide support to wildlife organizations in the form of funding in conservation of endangered bird species. Many activities will be made towards habitat conservation, studies and public participation so as to promote the existence of those exquisite birds. Therefore, in collaboration with conservationists, Birdfy’s mission is to develop practical strategies for protecting beautiful birds in the wild. There is also active participation of the communities in Birdfy’s educational strategies and programs. People will be taken through bird watching trips, and educational fairs that are in an attempt to introduce people with the aspects of nature and conservation. With the help of community engagement, Birdfy wants people to feel the sense of caring about beautiful birds and their environments. In my opinion these educational and informative programs introduced by Birdfy reflects a great effort to make people familiar with beautiful birds in the world and try to conserve them. Birdfy focuses on these birds and their role in the ecosystem with the goal of creating a critical mass of people who would actively protect the beauty of our planet’s avian inhabitants. For further details about Birdfy’s educational education and conservation activities, do visit the Birdfy website where information will be uploaded. Collectively, each of these efforts is designed to foster a greater understanding and love for the beautiful birds that grace the world and support health of ecosystems on our planet.
