Research Group Develops Radiation Safe Mobile Phone Antenna.

UTICA, N.Y.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Jan. 25, 2001

The Electronics Research Group, a division of Life Energy & Technology Holdings Inc., has been specializing in the development of Phased Grid Antenna's to replace traditional mobile phone aerials in order to significantly reduce the risks associated with radiation exposure for the mobile phone user.

The Company has assembled and tested a series of phased grid antenna's, which can be designed to any shape as printed lattices on, for example, the external surface of automobiles, aircraft, on any building or structure, within the body of a traditional mobile phone, or within the casing of a mobile phone battery. These proprietary and highly flexible lattices can be adapted to any shape and size, without reducing their ability to receive or transmit mobile phone signals. The new lattices are designed to reduce the electro-magnetic radiation emissions of mobile phones by up to 80%. Recent reports have indicated the possibility of a link between such radiation emissions and certain forms of cancer. Based on similar military devices deployed successfully by the Russian Navy to counteract interference from naturally occurring electromagnetic radiation associated with, for example, the Aurora Borealis, the performance of these lattices has been comparable to traditional aerial components in all trials conducted to date.

Given the perceived public health risk now associated with the use of mobile phone handsets, licensing discussions have already been initiated with several mobile phone manufacturers. Management believes that once these discussions are completed the adoption of the new lattices and their rapid deployment replacing traditional mobile phone aerials will proceed without delay.

One of the key advantages of these new lattices is that they are to expected to both be incorporated into completely new phone designs, and to reduce emissions from existing mobile phones by incorporating the new lattice aerials into replacement batteries. Management believes that this new technology provides a viable means to both eliminate the problem of radiation emissions in new phones and to offer an easy solution for the millions of phones already in use.

Further developments within the Electronics Research Group are directed towards the deployment of the lattices as communication aerials in several other applications where public health is a priority concern.

Announcing the development at Life Energy's Romanov-Reynolds Research Institute in Dundalk Ireland, Dr Chris McCormack, President and Chief Executive Officer stated "This is an exciting development for the Life Energy Group. Not only have our researchers developed a world class product, but we have again confirmed our commitment to EcoTech(TM)(1) technologies, sustainable development and the improvement and protection of the quality of our everyday lives"
