Please read the last pages our forum for article and pictures! Hybrid Technologies, Inc. (HYBR) is committed to using its resources for the development and marketing of lithium-powered vehicles and products, as well as commercial and residential properties. The Company has successfully converted scooters, bicycles, mopeds, motorcycles, cars and homes into zero-emission, lithium-powered vehicles and facilities. The Company’s products have received massive attention from CNN, Forbes, Popular Mechanics, and Wired magazine as well as from other broadcasters. Marketing Trend forecasters believes that its all-lithium BMW AG Mini Cooper will become the new “it” car among the Hollywood crowd, who are no strangers to the company. Because Hybrid Technologies’ vehicles are not run on gas, they require very low maintenance and can save users hundreds of dollars. Hybrid Technologies has signed contracts with NASA, the Canadian Ministry of Transportation, the City of New York, the US Navy, and Paratransit, a New York transportation company, among others. The media, government and public are taking note of the company’s vehicles and the demand could become very strong in the near future. The Company was recently given a $5.30 target price by SISM Research as well as a ‘Speculative Buy’ Rating. SISM Research analyst Ernest C. Schlotter stated, “Electric powered vehicles will quickly gain meaningful share in the worldwide light vehicle market due to rising energy costs and increased emissions regulations. Hybrid Technologies is an emerging leader in the development and marketing of lithium-powered products worldwide and could benefit from this trend. Currently, the market is limited because of high prices, but this technology has the potential to become mainstream as production volume increases. Subsequently, vehicle prices should decline.” LITHIUM POWER ADVANCED DRIVE SYSTEM TECHNOLOGY The power system consists of an integrated network of high performance components that are adaptable to multiple energy sources and is capable of powering a wide variety of end-user product applications. PLUGIN VEHICLE FACTS *Battery Electric Vehicles (EVs) are by far the most efficient vehicles in the world. *According to the Department of Energy, enough excess generating capacity exists at night in the U.S. to charge 180 million EVs without adding any new capacity. *All of our electricity is domestic except for a small percentage from Canada. *Most people worldwide waste more electricity in their homes than they would use to drive their cars. *We will never fight a war over electricity. *Driving on electricity from the U.S. grid is far cleaner than driving on oil. *A survey of EV owners found that 48% of them used solar energy to power their houses and cars. *EVs by the millions could be built today. *Plug-in cars capable of 50 miles per day would meet the needs of 80% of the American driving public.

") From the Greek word for stone, lithos. strtoupper(" Say what? ") Lithium is pronounced as LITH-i-em Lithium was discovered in the mineral petalite (LiAl(Si2O5)2) by Johann August Arfvedson in 1817. It was first isolated by William Thomas Brande and Sir Humphrey Davy through the electrolysis of lithium oxide (Li2O). Today, larger amounts of the metal are obtained through the electrolysis of lithium chloride (LiCl). Lithium is not found free in nature and makes up only 0.0007% of the earth's crust. Many uses have been found for lithium and its compounds. Lithium has the highest specific heat of any solid element and is used in heat transfer applications. It is used to make special glasses and ceramics, including the Mount Palomar telescope's 200 inch mirror. Lithium is the lightest known metal and can be alloyed with aluminum, copper, manganese, and cadmium to make strong, lightweight metals for aircraft. Lithium hydroxide (LiOH) is used to remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere of spacecraft. Lithium salts are used to synthesize cathode material for lithium ion batteries. In primary lithium metal battery it is used as anode. Lithium stearate (LiC18H35O2) is used as a general purpose and high temperature lubricant. Lithium carbonate (Li2CO3) is used as a drug to treat manic depression disorder. HOW BATTERIES WORK Electrons polarize on the negative terminal of the battery. If a wire is connected between the negative and positive terminals, the electrons will flow from the negative to the positive terminal as fast as they can (wearing out the battery very quickly - this also tends to be dangerous, especially with larger batteries, so it is not recommended). Normally, you connect some type of load to the battery using the wire. The load might be something like a light bulb, a motor, or an electronic circuit like a radio. Inside the battery itself, a chemical reaction produces the electrons. The speed of electron production by this chemical reaction (the battery's internal resistance) controls how many electrons can flow between the terminals. Electrons flow from the battery into a wire, and must travel from the negative to the positive terminal for the chemical reaction to take place. That is why a battery can sit on a shelf for a year and still have plenty of power - unless electrons are flowing from the negative to the positive terminal, the chemical reaction does not occur. However, once you connect a wire, the reaction begins.
