Enable IPC Ultracapacitor Exceeds 1 Million Cycles
Exclusive License Expands Fields of Use for Both Consumer and Industrial
Applications; Opens $600 Million Potential Market
VALENCIA, Calif. – December 18, 2007 – Enable IPC Corporation (OTCBB: EIPC) announced today that its
ultracapacitor technology has matched or exceeded the cycle life of commercially-available devices.
“As a point of reference, many rechargeable batteries have a useful life in the 1000s of cycles,” explained
researcher Kevin Leonard, one of the inventors of the Enable IPC ultracapacitor. “That is, you can charge
and discharge them at most a few thousand times before they are no longer useful.
“Ultracapacitors, on the other hand, can generally be charged and discharged hundreds of thousands of
times. In our laboratory testing, on the morning of December 13th, our ultracapacitor surpassed 1 million
cycles while still maintaining over 80% of its initial capacity, which matches some of the best performance
reports we’ve seen in ultracapacitor life cycle testing.”
The company is continuing the testing to determine how many cycles the devices can withstand.
Enable IPC CTO, Dr. Mark Daugherty, said, “We are very pleased with the pace of our ultracapacitor
development. We’ve met our performance milestones and are actively developing exciting new applications
to take advantage of these recent improvements.”
Separately, Enable IPC recently announced that they had completed and signed the final license agreement
with the University of Wisconsin, exclusively securing the ultracapacitor technology for consumer and
industrial applications for the useful life of the patent.
About Enable IPC Corp. (Intellectual Property Commercialization)
(www.enableipc.com)
Enable IPC Corporation is developing power devices using advances in thin films and nanotechnology. Our
products include microbatteries for very low power applications (utilizing nanowires as small as 1/1000th the
diameter of a human hair) and ultracapacitors for a wide range of power applications (utilizing nanoparticles
on carbon). These complimentary products will be ideal for use in a variety of applications. The microbattery
is targeted for use in healthcare products, RFID tags, smart cards and many other applications while the
ultracapacitor is to be used in consumer electronics.
