A pre-smoke detector and system for use in early detection of developing fires whereby vapors of marker chemicals generated during the melting and / or smoldering of common household materials are detected before detection by conventional smoke detectors. Vapors resulting from heating and resultant vaporization of substances are detected as well as vapors resulting from their breakdown, decomposition, or pyrolysis during the pre-combustion stage. Conventional smoke detectors focus on particle detection and are most effective after a developing fire has produced smoke. To minimize false alarms caused by common household odors, the pre-smoke detectors focus on detecting medium temperature pyrolysis products using sensor coatings that can be consistent with a 10 year operational lifetime and multiple orthogonal detection processes. Since virtually all marker chemicals of interest for pre-smoke detection are heavier than air, a system is described that appropriately integrates with smoke detector alarm systems present in most homes.

The invention discloses a buck-boost isolation type DC / DC circuit-based DC power spring topology and a control method thereof. Based on the definition of a current electric spring (ES) on a critical load and a non-critical load, when the generated power output DC voltage of a renewable energy source deviates from a normal value, a direct current electric spring (DCES) realizes the dynamic balance between the power supply and the load energy through dynamically adjusting the equivalent resistance value of the non-critical load. Furthermore, the terminal voltage of the critical load is stabilized. The above DC power spring topology and the control method thereof are high in practical value and easy in popularization, thus being especially applicable to roof photovoltaic power generation systems and small-scale wind power generation systems in ordinary families and residential communities. Meanwhile, the non-critical load bears a considerable part of the power fluctuation. Therefore, the requirement on the charge and discharge capacity of a storage battery pack is significantly reduced, and the cost of energy storage equipment is lowered.
