: LTHU) hosted yesterday an exposition of the Company's breadth of power solutions and unveiled a retrofitted Toyota Prius The Toyota Prius is a hybrid electric vehicle developed and manufactured by the Toyota Motor Corporation, and one of the first such vehicles to be mass-produced and marketed. The Prius first went on sale in Japan in 1997, and worldwide in 2001. , with plug-in capabilities allowing for 125+ miles per gallon Noun 1. miles per gallon - the distance traveled in a vehicle powered by one gallon of gasoline or diesel fuel
unit, unit of measurement - any division of quantity accepted as a standard of measurement or exchange; "the dollar is the United States unit of
 fuel efficiency, which is powered by the Company's unique battery technology. The battery for the Prius utilizes LTC's new product line of lithium iron phosphate Lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO4) is a compound used in lithium iron phosphate batteries (related to Li-Ion batteries). It is targeted for use in electric vehicles and some laptops.  (LiFePO4) cells, the largest cells of their kind in the world, which are considered to be the technology of choice for the American car manufacturers.

"We are delighted to demonstrate and deliver the technology that the automotive industry The automotive industry is the industry involved in the design, development, manufacture, marketing, and sale of motor vehicles. In 2006, more than 69 million motor vehicles, including cars and commercial vehicles were produced worldwide.  has been searching for today," commented Dr. Klaus Brandt, chief executive officer of LTC. "While others have estimated up to a year to deliver the technology, we are proud to show the world that we have the technology and are committed to making hybrid, plug-in hybrid and electric vehicles a reality for all consumers in the safest way."

The 7 kWh battery comprised of 63 of LTC's iron phosphate cells has achieved 125+ MPG. LTC's large format technology allows for more reliable battery systems with a significantly lower number of cells. The battery management system (BMS BMS

) is more precise monitoring fewer cells, keeping them in balance for best performance and preventing damage to the battery due to over voltage, under voltage, over temperature and short circuit.

From our highways, to the depths of the ocean and up into space, LTC is powering the world in extraordinary ways. Key partners and customers joined in the event to demonstrate a range of vehicles from the automotive and military markets. Phoenix International representatives were on hand with one of the xBot Remote Operated Vehicles used on to explore the RMS TITANIC The RMS Titanic, a British Olympic-class ocean liner, became famous as the largest ocean liner built in her day and also for sinking on her maiden voyage in 1912 with a huge loss of life. . The batteries powering the vehicles are amongst the safest lithium-ion batteries in the world for their energy density

"We are proud of our strategic partnerships which continue to afford us the opportunity to explore and develop new technologies and to break new ground," remarks Brandt. "Through partners including Phoenix International, Penn State, Phostech and University of Delph n. 1. Delftware.
