Coming to you soon me thinks.
Will do.
Getting close bud.
Indeed it is. Says a lot IMO.
If it operates as said, then I have no doubt it will sell it self. especially when there is NO viable product on the market now.
WorldWide
Indeed it is. Nice to have a CEO who is willing to repsond to your questions.
Me too LL, I like the transparency they are willing to provide. At this point I cant anything to complain about.
We'll see. He is good about responding to my emails So I am sure he will.
same Sh!%^ different day
Was wondering the same thing myself. Will reply later tonight or tomorrow and see if he can clarify that one.
Agreed, if they can get full blown prodcution started on schedule that will be very telling.
I received an email from Shawn earlier today about some questions I had for him (He said he will get back to me by friday on those). He has been out of town the last few days and he is playing catch up right now.
Indeed it is. email from Mr. Ofir.
Hi John,
The status of our Yogen Patent is that we submit a PCT application which will protect our rights for another 18 months (until the middle of 2010). You should also be noted that we did not get any comments yet from the US patent Office Department and it is very good. The PCT application is going to protect us world wide.
Regards my trip to the USA, the main goal is to have a serious negotiations with potential distributors for our products and of course meetings with brokers. If you have another q please do not hesitate to contact me anytime.
Regards,
Guy Ofir
No kidding semi. Markets are SOOOOOOO F'ed up right now.
LOL, SSDD here.
It's time for a viable product like this to come out. Currently the ones avaialble are hard to use and has other short comings that keeps them from becoming widely popular. If the Yogen line of products can overcome what the products that are now out, then they will be a HUGE success.
Sounds like the CEO will be very close to meeting his goals listed int eh update.
I have good reason to believe, with the reasonable success of our in-progress marketing discussions, that Easy Energy's revenues for 2009 could reach $10,000,000 with resulting earnings of $3,000,000 or better.
More and more uses will continually pop up in this time and age.
Thansk bud. All we need is some good volume.
What? Showing 05x09.Need to restart i guess. Thansk.
Yeah, until this spread tightens up we are not going anywhere. Someone wants this to stay to put fro some reason.
YoGenT Charger design and technical advantages:
For power capability and ergonomic design, for operation without fatigue and the most effective charging, three major design innovations have been incorporated:
1. A high power, disk alternator; designed as a very compact, low-profile device in a flat smooth housing. A novel, patented design of the combination of coreless permanent magnet rotor and stator coils, integrated with electronic circuit attached to mechanical transmission providing high power and efficiency of the charger .
2. For ease of use over extended periods of charging, the YoGenT mechanism is a masterpiece of mechanical engineering. To keep the unit flat, simple speed multiplication mechanism is designed instead of complex gear mechanism used in other hand chargers. Further, the alternator rotors are "flywheels", which with built-in ratchet extend the effective generation cycle even after the pulling cycle has ceased.
3. The YoGenT Charger high power capability is complemented by the innovative charging and protection circuit providing proper consumer (e.g. cell-phone) charging and monitoring SOC of internal battery.
Power needs and charging times:
Cellphones: typical talk-transmission power is about 0.5-1W. With the 3.7V lithium-ion batteries, discharge current can reach 130-270mA. Standby current is much lower and when the screen is off it is less than 10mA.
Most available cell-phone batteries are of 750-1300mAh capacity. Typical charging times, with wall chargers, are from 3 to 5 hours, providing up to 400mA. YoGen under intensive operation may supply up to 1 A and thus to provide a tenfold talk time in relative to cord pulling time.
Would be nice. Will have to see how EOD is, lately they always take it down at that time.
I would not be suprised if they did.
I would say so.
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.
At this stage we are only taking orders for the YoGen® as well as from distributors and wholesale purchasers. If you are interested in retailing YoGen®, please contact us at sales@easy-energy.biz for details.
-We have advanced with the development of the YoGen® to the point where we will be initiating mass production. The first pilot run of 100 units is scheduled for March 11, 2009, with the start-up of full mass production scheduled for April 9, 2009.
- We have finalized the design of the YoGen MaxTM and will soon be initiating the process to prepare that product for mass production
- In 2008, we executed an agreement with Al-Sadeef Trading Company in Jordan to handle distribution of our products in the Middle East, in which they have agreed to purchase 300,000 ($3,000,000) YoGen®s per year.
- We are currently in negotiations with substantial distribution firms for other territories and are confident that several additional agreements will be finalized in the very near future.
- we will be executing a marketing plan that will include efforts in the United States and Canada.
- I have good reason to believe, with the reasonable success of our in-progress marketing discussions, that Easy Energy's revenues for 2009 could reach $10,000,000 with resulting earnings of $3,000,000 or better.
- We expect to be making progress reports on a regular basis in the near future
- The company further announced that it is in negotiations with procurement officials of the military of one nation (unnamed for reasons of security and confidentiality), with the goal of developing an agreement to supply their forces with a military version of the YoGen(R) charger, and is looking forward to entering discussions with representatives of the military of a second country in early February.
Agreed, and the ease of use that the Yogen provides makes it an ideal unit for any situation.

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.

Sounds good to me bud.
Without a doubt. This is the ground floor for ESYE.
Patent info.
On August 20, 2007, we filed a provisional patent application (Application No.:
11/841,046) with the United States Patent and Trademark Office, which is still pending. In order to extend the potential patent protection beyond the U.S., we were required to file an international patent application via the Patent Cooperation Treaty ("PCT") no later than August 19, 2008. Indeed, on June 30, 2008, we filed the international patent application via the PCT (application No. PCT/IL2008/000882) with the Israeli patent office. This patent application covers the man-powered charger solution for battery powered small hand-carried devices.
On January 29, 2008 we announced the completion of the fully working prototype of the man-powered charger solution for battery powered small hand-carried devices designed mainly to charge cellular phones ("YoGen").
On June 29, 2008 we filed a patent application with respect to a new product we are currently developing, which is a foldable charger with two axial flux alternators designed to charge laptop computers (the "Laptop Charger"). The patent application (Application No. PCT/IL2008/000908) was filed with the Israeli patent office. The technology of the Laptop Charger, like the technology of the YoGen, was invented by Alexander Sromin and Michael Fridhendler during the course of their work for Pipera Technologies Ltd. ("Pipera"), a company wholly owned and fully funded by our president and director, Guy Ofir. Mr. Sromin and Mr. Fridhendler have been assisted by Mr. Roman Lanzet that serves as production manager at Pipera. Mr. Sromin, Mr. Fridhendler and Mr. Lanzet together with Pipera assigned all of their rights in the Laptop Charger to our company for no consideration. The Laptop Charger prototype, like the YoGen, is being developed by Pipera, mainly by Mr. Sromin and Mr. Fridhendler.
Good morning.
Morning everyone.
Morning people.
Good morning everyone.
You see that BS!!! These markets are so F'ed up.
Sure is.
