Yugster.com Will Feature Medis Fuel Cell Power Emergency Kit NEW YORK, June 23 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Medis Technologies Ltd. (NASDAQ:MDTL) announced that its Fuel Cell Power Emergency Kit will be featured on Yugster.com this week. Yugster, an online retailer that sells "cool stuff" at attractive pricing, offers a new product at 6AM ET every morning and "when it's gone, it's gone." Simply log onto yugster.com and follow the simple instructions on Wednesday, June 24, 2009, in order to upgrade your own personal emergency preparedness. The Fuel Cell Power Emergency Kit is the world's first personal fuel cell power system that delivers emergency lighting and mobile phone power when a user needs it most. The Yugster offering is timed for the hurricane season -- which officially runs from June until the end of October -- but the kit can be used in any power emergency: blackouts, brownouts, cyclones, tornadoes, floods or falling trees that cut power lines. Based on the Medis Direct Liquid Fuel Cell Technology, the Fuel Cell Power Emergency Kit is a personal fuel cell power system that delivers instant emergency light and power to portable devices without batteries or pre-charging. The ideal 'Plan B,' with a simple shake of the product, the Kit can power a cell phone, mp3 player or flashlight for many hours over several days when grid power is not available due to natural disaster or other instances when batteries have given up or faded out. "We are happy that Yugster will be making our Emergency Kit available at precisely the time of year when people are going to need emergency power," said Jose Mejia, Medis CEO. "The Fuel Cell Power Emergency Kit offers an instant power source in a time of need, keeping your flashlights on and cell phone working. And since it is not a battery, the fuel cell is a convenient power option that creates 'new' electricity when and as it is needed." The Fuel Cell Power Emergency Kit is a clean and safe-to-use energy source, supplying multiple charges to an array of devices including mobile phones, smart phones, and other handheld electronic products, in addition to powering the included 14-LED flashlight for many hours. Simply shake the Fuel Cell Power Pack and it will create 20 watt-hours of electricity -- with no measurable heat -- in the palm of your hand. Medis fuel cells have no carbon footprint, no emissions, are easily recyclable, and contain no toxic or hazardous substances. Mejia added, "Our Fuel Cell Power Emergency Kit is right on the money with the Department of Homeland Security's Resolve to be Ready 2009 campaign. When it comes to natural disasters, an ounce of preparedness is worth a pound of remedial help." The Resolve to be Ready 2009 campaign urges people to have "an emergency supply kit, a family emergency plan, and being informed about the different types of emergencies that could occur and their appropriate responses."
