mPhase Technologies, Inc. (OTCBB:XDSL)
today announced that it has completed the first functional prototype of its
Lithium Reserve Battery that will function in the AlwaysReady Emergency Flashlight.
The prototype is the first time the mPhase battery technology has come together
in a "ready for production" prototype.
The mPhase Lithium Reserve Battery stores energy until it is literally "turned
on." It is manually activated by a unique triggering mechanism that rapidly
releases and distributes the liquid electrolyte inside the battery. The electrolyte
immediately contacts the solid electrode materials to produce 3 volts. The reserve
battery is perfect for backup power and emergency applications. With a shelf
life of over 20 years, the mPhase Lithium Reserve Battery will allow the AlwaysReady
Emergency Flashlight to function as a reliable emergency light source in countless
situations.
"The completion of a 'first of its kind' manually activated lithium reserve
battery is essential to a timely launch of the AlwaysReady Emergency Flashlight
and marks a major achievement," said mPhase CEO Ron Durando. "This
prototype has been carefully designed to ensure reliability when power is absolutely
needed."
mPhase Technologies, Inc. (OTCBB:XDSL), through its wholly owned subsidiary
AlwaysReady, Inc., is focused on developing and commercializing a new battery
technology based on a well-patented phenomenon known as electrowetting, which
provides a unique way to store energy and manage power that will revolutionize
the battery industry.
