Earth'sEnergy Pack for Light Vehicles
- Longer Lasting Battery System for Hybrid Cars and Golf Carts
Final Decision Maker: Hybrid car owners, Golf cart owners
Earth'sEnergy Pack is the newest battery pack technology that provides a safe, reliable power supply when no power supply is available. They can be used as a supplement to a battery in a hybrid vehicle or golf cart. Earth'sEnergy Packs are considered a green energy technology and will provide power longer than current battery systems. Earth'sEnergy Packs provide 2 times the longevity, and 3 times the power density compared to other batteries. Earth'sEnergy is water activated and requires no additional power to charge a vehicle battery to keep an engine running longer. The battery has a recyclable fuel card and after each use, the unit only needs to be cleaned out and refilled. The battery uses high surface area nanotechnology to achieve increased efficiency and can be designed to fit any size system and application. When applied to a battery in a hybrid car, Earth'sEnergy Pack extends the vehicle's miles per gallon from 40 mpg to 100 miles per gallon! The technology has been tested extensively and the results were sent to a lab in California for verification from a PhD certified scientist. Results have been confirmed and documented.

| Inventor(s) Sales Goals |
| Minimum Goal |
$- |
Current GOAL |
$- |
Earth'sEnergy Pack can more than double the number of miles a hybrid car can drive per gallon. |
Inventor(s) Commentary:
My battery can be applied to any power consuming device. It can operate as a primary or back-up system. My company envisions larger, more powerful units. Calculations show that units can be built that would last as long as one year without having to service the unit. The market for batteries is worldwide, and our battery is non-toxic, safe, and reliable. |
