Currently at least one out of every two North Americans carries and frequently uses a cell phone. Cell phones are in use even in many less developed areas of the world. Keeping these phones fully charged especially when they are heavily used can be a significant problem for the operator. To ensure continuous operation the user must carry a spare battery (many phones are not designed for convenient battery swaps) and/or, at the very least, be conscious of the availability of a conventional charging source. How often do we find ourselves with a "dead" cell phone and no way to charge it, because we have either misplaced the plug-in charger or have no access to a conventional power source. With the advent of the YoGen BatT, all of these problems for cell phone users simply disappear. It's just that easy. Your cell phone will have a built in, convenient to operate, high efficiency charger which can provide power to your phone by the simple repeated pulling of the cord built into its battery. YoGen BatT welcomes you to a new world of total cell phone mobility and freedom from worries about charging sources.
Me too.
YOu think DJI will hold 7500?
Me either, keeping what positions I have and not getting anythign new.
Hence the uptick rule. Without it they are just gonna beat the markets down to nothing. At the rate it's going would not be suprised to see DJI at 5000. Fukking thieves.
Time to take this bad boy to the next level don't you think.
Exactly IH.
Maybe if it was an actual stimilus plan instead of a spending plan people might look at it dofferetly. Also maybe if the dipshit Gietner would atuall come out and say they are bringing back "Mark to Market" and the "uptick Rule" confidence might come back in the markets.
Nice grab.
Morning folks.
Nice grab.
Yes I did.
True that.
Was nice to see some more volume. Maybe we will start to see more and a move up in price too.
Looks like the current admin and his appointees don't have the markets trust. Fekking idiot Geitner effectively screwed the markets yesterday with his dumbass so called plan....or was that his plan?
Hopefuly that will be soon too.
You should almost have the bus full by now right?
Yep, now all we need some good buying volume.
People-Powered Computing with Easy Energy's Yogen Max
by Tom Milnes on December 17, 2008
I'm sure that 2009 will be packed with must-have gizmos, but if I had my choice the one that I'd most like to get a hold of it would be Easy Energy's Yogen Max.
Although there is pretty scant information available on this device, apparently it is designed to be just what it looks like, a human-powered energy source for your laptop, consisting of a foldable footpedal that plugs directly into your laptop, and/or perhaps other devices that it can be suited to work with. So, you say I might be able to stick with my light, but not very long-lasting battery and never have to worry about running out of juice as long as I'm willing to tap-tap-tap? Hmm, who wouldn't be for that? All I have to say is why hasn't anyone come up with this idea already. Unfortunately Easy Energy's Website says next to nothing about the product, beyond a flash demonstration. Yet, according to a recent Endgadget posting, Easy Energy has completed a working prototype, so this is looking for real. Also, Easy Energy CEO Guy Ofir, in a Coolest Gadgets posting, says of the product, “This unique product will allow for the complete charging of a laptop anywhere in the world, inside or outside, wired or not.” The key words for me here are 'complete charging.' If he is claiming that a full charge can be produced this should sell itself.
It may seem a little goofy at first to think of walking into the local cafe, lining up a latte and busting out your little orange wah-wah power pedal, but if it works, is light and compact and is affordable, I'm sure you won't be the only one pedaling away across the WWW and beyond. And just think of the workout your calfs will get. Like I said, this little power pack is high on my list of '09 must-haves. Lets hope that prototype makes it to production.

YoGen-Bat is our latest and most exciting and innovative product. Imagine a battery of your cell phone or PDA that allows you when
running low on battery to recharge it, without the need of any power source or an external charger.
The patent pending YoGen BatT, now under development, is a leading edge next generation device that combines a cell phone battery
with an extremely efficient, especially compact hand-powered electromechanical generator that breaks new ground in miniaturization.
This incredible product will employ a convenient pull cord/with handle hand charging mechanism, similar to but smaller than that of
the original YoGen® charger. The introduction of the YoGen BatT will eliminate the need for a separate, stand-alone charger for cell
phone users, thus representing a new level of convenience and utility. Imagine, total freedom of operation, as you will never have to
worry about whether or not your cell phone battery is charged or be concerned about the availability of an external power source for
operation or charging! Easy Energy, Inc. anticipates a swift completion of the development of the YoGen BatT prototype and a
subsequent timely advance to production and market launch.

Easy Energy Introduces YoGen Max Laptop ChargerPrototype of foot pedal laptop charger has “eco” written all over By Georgiana Bobolicu, Gadgets Editor
2nd of December 2008, 18:47 GMT
If we want to run all those devices that make our lives so much better, we need to find a way to power them that won’t cost a fortune and that can be used without danger of further damage to the environment. Using a disposable battery on a daily basis is clearly not a good idea. Renewable energy has to be the way. But, since the sun or the wind are rather difficult to use on a daily basis, Easy Energy has an alternative, the YoGen Max foot pedal laptop charger.
Still only a prototype, the YoGen Max is very easy to use and to carry around with you, as it will fold up for easy travel, allowing you to run your laptop like an antique sewing machine.
Of course, we all know that the human body coupled with the right balance of mechanical generators can produce electricity. But if you're one of those people who compulsively taps their foot anyway, the YoGen Max can help you run your laptop from anywhere, without a supplementary effort, isn't that right?
Thanks to this functioning principle, you'll practically be able to use your laptop far away from areas that have electricity, in the middle of the nature, while working in a much more relaxing way. Although its main purpose is to charge laptops, the YoGen Max can also be used to charge other small devices, without any restrictions.
No matter how easy it may be to charge a laptop or any other device this way, it may become somehow tiresome, since most of the electronics that we use on a daily basis require rather long operating times. But there's no need to worry, since Easy Energy has thought that through and endowed the YoGen Max with a high capacity internal rechargeable battery, packaged within an electronic block playing the role of a construction base. Besides the battery and in order to provide a maximum level of versatility, the electronic block of the YoGen Max makes it possible to set the desired output in a range covering all existing laptops and other similar devices.
Since it's just a prototype, there's no price attached to the YoGen Max just yet, but, according to the Easy Energy website, it should hit the market in the near future and I guess we will find out then.
Our device YoGen® is a slim pocket-size hand-powered electric charger driven by repeated pulling a cord in a similar to Yo-Yo string. While the self-returning cord is repeatedly pulled by the user, an internal alternator spins continuously, and thereby generates power allowing for recharging the batteries used by any PDA and especially cell-phone while the user can keep using them, e.g. `staying on talking`..
Since human-power source is actually unlimited and permanently available- no additional batteries to dispose of or extra weight to carry.
YoGen® is based on a unique extremely slim patented high-efficiency "on-board" alternator integrated with an energy-saving electronic stabilizer allowing for a palm-sized device which provides a quick recharge for any device adapted for charging from 5VDC chargers: cell-phones, GPS, iPOD, MP3, MP4, etc.
The second device we are developing, YoGen MaxT (coming in soon) will provide enough power for laptops and their accessories, professional camcorders, etc. Unlike YoGenT it will be driven by the user's foot in order to provide a long charging without body weariness and interference with main user work.
Virtually everyone these days is mobile: everyone carries at least one battery-powered device, and often they have a bag-full of these power-hungry devices.
One out of two North Americans carries a cell-phone. MP3 player, iPOD and similar music systems are owned and used by virtually everyone under 40. Game decks, electronic toys and organizers are everywhere and many of us carry laptops and equipment ranging from GPS units to pocket camcorders. Keeping all these batteries fully charged and conditioned presents a real problem. They all use a lot of energy, depleting batteries rapidly. Often the battery dies and the charger is at home or in the office or there is no AC outlet available. Many people try to make do with a handful of ordinary AA and AAA batteries.
For most cell-phone users, the only way of charging their battery is through the cell-phone itself. The units are not meant to be routinely opened for battery exchange which is usually the case with PDAs and camcorders etc.
For millions of laptop users, a spare battery is simply too much extra weight and often gets left behind in the office or hotel. For some of the other types of gadgets, batteries may not be replaceable or accessible to the user without disassembling the device. Even if it was practical, this would void any product warranty.
Now there are new devices - chargers that are small and light enough and can handle all devices that is to recharge low batteries in any situation.
Size: 55 mm x 90 mm, 23 mm thick (2.1" x 3.5", 0.9" thick)
Max power: 5 W typically (up to 6 W)
Electric output: built-in mini-USB. Supplied with a set of flexible cables terminated by connector adaptors for most popular cell-phones and other hand-held electrical devices.
Built-in 650 mAh lithium-ion back-up battery.
A State-Of-Charge internal battery indicator.
A LED indicator showing actual charging the electronic device being connected to.
A slider switch alternating between forced and regular charging mode
Rugged and tough enough to withstand constant use.
No doubt there is a demand for the Yogen products, and as they bring in revenue they will be able to enhance the technology to meet different demands in the field.
Done, I'm staring like a sumb1tch. LOL
lets get this party stared!!
There are a lot better ways to handle this issue than spending trillions of dollars. It's a proven fact you can't spend yourself out of a recession like this. Just look at Japan in the 90's as an example.
Morning bud.
The Future - Nokia unveils futuristic Morph concept device
We really have to hand it to Nokia for constantly coming up with these super-cool concept designs for mobile devices. Although these aren't likely to make it to stores anytime soon, they do nonetheless offer a sneak peek at what to expect in the years to come.
The latest of its futuristic devices come in the form of Morph, a joint project between the Nokia Research Center and the University of Cambridge. As its name suggests, Morph is a nanotechnology concept that shows how mobile devices in the future will be made of flexible materials which can be stretched and flexed to any shape the user desires. It is also used to demonstrate how nanotechnology can ultimately deliver "transparent electronics and self-cleaning surfaces".
According to the joint press release, the various technologies developed in the Morph project are expected to be integrated into handheld devices within seven years. The Morph concepts are currently showcased at the "Design and the Elestic Mind" exhibition at The Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) in New York.
The joint research partnership between Nokia and the University of Cambridge was first announced about a year ago.

Yep, possible military contract(s) coming, coming to the US and Canada soon. Big things ar on the horizon here.
It's coming. That dumbfuk Geitner screwed the pooch yesteday with tht dumbfuk speech he made. Bring back "mark to market" and the "uptick rule" and we will get a nice rally not another trillion in spending and not even know how or what they are going to do with it.
Morning people. Maybe we get an update here soon.
Morning IH and all. Getting some SFI this AM. Still holding some ZLC.
I'm in. Let's see if we can get a good bounce here on this one.
Good morning people.
Indeed and anyone else that may fall into a survival situation.
Will be interesting to see how the US and Canada trip went.
Majority of the people do not want it passed, so much for representing the peolpe who elected you huh? Sorry F'ers, everyone one of them should be voted out and term limits set for everyone.
If we can land just 1 millitary contract this will blow up and open the doors to bigger and better contracts down the road. Big things can happen here on this one and I think I will jut sit right here and see how they do.
We believe we are in the right place at the right time with a line of products that are uniquely suited to fulfill the needs of a grossly underserved segment of the marketplace. At a time when the words "green energy" are on everyone's lips, we are introducing a suite of products that are environmentally friendly in the extreme, completely non-polluting in their operation and designed for durability and long operational life. There is a great demand today in the marketplace for compact, user-friendly manpowered chargers for portable electronics devices to ensure their operation in circumstances in which conventional power sources are not accessible. We are ready to meet that demand with a line of manpowered chargers that will lead the industry in ergonomics, economy and power output relative to input effort.
I believe the CEO is right on the money here.
Anyone else see an infomercial coming soon? I think it would be a great way to enter the market here in the states.
Seems the people don't like what Obama and his team are proposing. As if that's a suprise LOL. Morons, every one of em'!!
