Zeev - from an admiring lurker -- USMG may be one to check --
has had a great run and broke out today on huge volume:
SAN FRANCISCO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Feb. 25, 2004--U.S. Home & Garden Inc. (OTCBB: USHG.OB - News) today announced that it has entered into a definitive agreement pursuant to which U.S. Home & Garden Inc. ("USHG") will merge with Ionatron Inc.
Ionatron Inc. is a privately held development stage company that has developed and tested a proprietary new Directed Energy Weapon technology, which in the non-lethal mode can direct electrical discharges, through the atmosphere, to disable vehicles, such as cars, trucks or boats, without harming the vehicle occupants. The discharges will also shutdown electronic and communications equipment. When fully developed, this technology also has the capability of stunning personnel, in a manner similar to a common TASER (R) --- but is wireless and capable of much longer ranges. Ionatron is starting to produce a limited number of prototypes for customer evaluation and testing for their specific environments and missions. Ionatron believes its technology is superior to many of the existing Directed Energy technologies in development, due to its low average power requirements and potential compact size. Ionatron's technology is multifunctional in capability for various military, homeland defense and law enforcement applications. Ionatron has recently secured a limited number of US Government contracts, as well as had the technology funded as a line item in the 2004 DOD Defense Budget. Ionatron expects to use the cash from the merger to accelerate technology development and prototyping activities.
