This has long term potential IMO. The deal with Energizer is huge in that it gets their products into many large retailers hands under a very trusted and recognizable brand. With rising energy costs and environmental awareness everyone is looking at becoming more energy efficient in any way they can. Also the fact their MR16 bulb was approved for rebates gives incentive to become more energy efficient and reduce energy costs. Energizer will also consider adding other products to the ones already confirmed in the deal. This company has also developed other products such as LED based street lighting which they've piloted in Welland Ontario where the company head office is based.
The impact of this deal won't be known until the 3rd quarter as they won't be releasing numbers til then which is indicated in the news release.
Get familiar with the company, do your own research and DD decide if this company is one you'd like to invest in. I currently hold a position in this company but in the Canadian venture exchange and am looking at the fact the company has decided to list in the US as a huge positive.
Of course this is only my opinion so do all the research you want before you make any investment decision. I'm only recommending you look into the company and its potential. For more information also check www.sedar.com for more information regarding insiders and filings.
Feel free to add your opinion once you've had an opportunity to look into the company, it's management, and it's products.
so what do we make of all this over here?...I know pretty much zero about these guys right now..lol..

Just got confirmation that the deal includes both US and Canada. Below is a response from their corporate communications section
Good Afternoon,
Thank you for your interest in CRS. Our agreement is currently in Canada and the US. If Energizer decides in the future to enter other regions, they will consider CRS for manufacturing.
Warm regards,

The news release mentions nothing other then it had signed an agreement with Energizer to manufacture and supply them with their LED lights so one would assume that it would be Energizer that decides which markets they intend on selling the CRS LEDs under their name.
In taking a look at a previous news release by the company in December 2010, it looks like their products will be sold to commercial customers within the US market after their MR16 LED bulbs were approved by 2 undisclosed utility companies for inclusion into their respective rebate programs. The MR16 is one of the bulbs that will be marketed under the Energizer name with the recent signing.
Seeing how their products will already be sold within the US market, I can't see why Energizer wouldn't seeing how its a large market.
Here's the news release I'm referring to.
CRS Electronics MR16 Approved by Two Major Utility Rebate Programs in
US
December 1, 2010 Welland, ON – CRS Electronics Inc. (“CRS”), (TSX-V:LED), an inventor, developer and manufacturer of LED lighting, is pleased to announce that two undisclosed major electric utilities in the US have approved the CRS LED MR16 lamps for an incentive program offered to their commercial customers.
The CRS lamp currently is the only LED MR16 approved for a rebate under their program. The Company anticipates shipping product in the first quarter of 2011 with orders starting to be placed over the next month as the utilities roll out the program to their commercial customers.
“The quality and performance of our products continues to be our competitive edge. Producing LED MR16 replacement lamps which exceed the performance standards prescribed by major utility suppliers for a rebate approval has always been a top priority at CRS.” said Scott Riesebosch, President, CRS Electronics “Customers that qualify for the rebate in these regions will be able to purchase our product at a small fraction of the regular cost, creating a substantial, solid value proposition for their businesses. They can enjoy the benefit of ongoing energy cost savings of approximately 80% and have the highest quality of light available in an LED MR16 lamp on the market today.”
The two undisclosed major utilities service a combined area of more than 100,000 sq. mi. in 40 counties within the continental United States. The opportunity for CRS to capitalize on these rebate programs is significant.
Do they plan to market this new line of LED's in the US
