I got to the OPXS party late, or early depending on the time frame :-) I am a buyer of OPXS shares at these prices.

It is amazing that so many "we are gonna do something big" OTC-pink stocks reach such massive silly valuations, while a real US OEM-defense contractor with cash, back orders, sales, revenues, gross profits, patents and a strong future, that is so near break even, sells for a fraction of the book value.

Israeli seals just used night vision (core OPXS technology) to enter Gasa last night to take out Hamas missiles, the entire middle east, Syria, Iraq..... ISIS, .....south China sea are getting worse, and US military spending will get increased.....

There is no safer, severely undervalued fully operating penny stock defense contractor on the OTC markets that I know of!!!!!

That particular version takes the sunlight heat directly to high temperature water/steam, so the cost for overnight power storage would be thermal storage tanks for well insulated high pressure, high temperature water.

Ambient temperature storage of formic acid would be far cheaper and longer lasting for later use as fuel cell power at night to the grid, and could be shipped to vehicle markets.

High pressure storage tanks and insulation get more costly on an exponential curve as the tank diameter increases (hoop stress), so at some point the MVTG-ERC-MRFC energy storage would be more cost effective.

There is another design that uses molten salt storage (instead of water) at ambient pressure at 3000 F to store the heat that has future potential for overnight use.

Wind power has non of those options, they need an MVTG-ERC-MRFC solution badly. I like the thermal solar plants as a source for making vehicle fuel out of waste CO2 using the MVTG-ERC process.

$ OPXS MEGA DD POST !!!


Optex Systems Holdings, Inc., (OTCBB:OPXS) through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Optex Systems, Inc is a well positioned defense company with an established history in the industry, a strong customer base and a backlog of contracts moving forward.

Optex Systems, Inc. was founded in 1987, as an ISO 9001:2000 certified concern that manufactures optical sighting systems and assemblies primarily for Department of Defense (DOD) applications.

Optex products are currently marketed in the military and related government markets. Since 1998, American military spending has increased over 225% on an annual basis to over $600 billion per year. As the American presence overseas continues, this level of spending should continue to exist. Also, the market for replacement parts for existing military equipment is significant.

Optex meets the U.S. military requirements in its product lines:
• Reliability - failure can cost lives
• Cost effectiveness
• Ability to deliver on schedule
• Armed forces need to be able to see to perform
• Mission critical products.
Optex products are currently sold exclusively to military and related government markets. We believe we have significant potential retail opportunities to commercialize various products we presently manufacture. Our initial focus will be directed in three product areas.


Big Eye Binoculars - While the military application we produce is based on mature military designs, Optex owns all castings, tooling and glass technology. These large fixed mount binoculars could be sold to Cruise Ships, Personal Yachts and Cities/Municipalities.

Night Vision Goggles - Optex presently manufactures the Optical System for the NL-61 Night Vision Goggles for the Ministry of Defense of Israel. This technology is based on the IR Squared design and could be implemented for retail commercial applications.

Infrared Imaging Equipment - Optex manufactures and assembles Infrared Imaging Equipment for Textron and components for Raytheon's Thermal Imaging M36 Mount product. This equipment and technology has potential to be assembled for border patrol, police and security agencies.
Optex products are installed on a majority of types of U.S. military land vehicles, such as the Abrams and Bradley fighting vehicles, Light Armored and Advanced Security Vehicles and have been selected for installation on the Stryker family of 10 vehicles. Optex also manufactures and delivers numerous periscope configurations, rifle and surveillance sights and night vision optical assemblies. Optex delivers its products both directly to the military services and to prime contractors.

Specific product lines include:
• Electronic sighting systems
• Mechanical sighting systems
• Laser protected glass periscopes
• Laser protected plastic periscopes
• Non-laser protected plastic periscopes
• Howitzer sighting systems
• Ship binoculars
• Replacement optics (e.g. filters, mirrors)

Mantra Venture Group Launches Investor Relations App VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA -- (Marketwired) -- 07/18/14 -- Mantra Venture Group Ltd. (OTCQB: MVTG) announced today the release of its investor relations app for iPhone, iPad and Android mobile devices.

About Mantra Venture Group Mantra Venture Group Ltd. (OTCQB: MVTG) is a clean technology incubator that takes innovative emerging technologies and moves them towards commercialization. The Company, through its subsidiary Mantra Energy Alternatives, is currently developing two groundbreaking electrochemical technologies designed to make reducing greenhouse gas emissions profitable, ERC (Electro-Reduction of Carbon Dioxide) and MRFC (Mixed-Reactant Fuel Cell).

ERC is a form of "carbon capture and utilization" (CCU) that converts the polluting greenhouse gas carbon dioxide into useful, valuable products including formic acid and formate salts. By utilizing clean electricity, the process offers the potential for an industrial plant to reduce emissions while generating a salable product and a profit.

[b[color=red]]The MRFC is an unconventional fuel cell that uses a mixture of fuel and oxidant, thereby greatly reducing the complexity and cost of the fuel cell system. Ideal for portable applications, the MRFC is cheaper, lighter, and more compact than conventional fuel cell technologies. [/color]
