Hello,
I have a 4 person Switlik Rescue pod for sale. It was inflated and inspected recently before we decided to go with an offshore life raft for a upcoming trip. This one is in Ideal condition and just needs its 5 year repacking/recertification (Costs about $300). The Rescue Pod is a very high quality inflatable flotation platform with canopy that supports four people and offers basic protection from the elements. The compact size of its fiberglass container allows it to be carried aboard the smallest open fishing boat, day cruiser or sail boat. The inflatable canopy provides better hypothermia protection than the single layer used on standard life rafts. FEATURES: 4 person capacity 3 sq. ft. floor area/person Buoyancy: 205 lbs./person Hand laid fiberglass container Insulating heat sealed double wall canopy Heat sealed urethane coated nylon buoancy chamber Water activated exterior locator light Automatically deployed sea anchor 25 ft. painter/static line Rectangular ballast pockets Manual topping off valve Retro-reflective tape Pressure relief valve CO2 inflation system Inner and outer lifelines Floating knife Utility bag 24"L x 13"W x 12"H (wt. 44 lbs.) |

BYD E6 – Next Gen Electric Car battery technology
Sun, 03 May 2009Chinese car maker BYD are using revolutionary battery technology in the BYD E6 The biggest problem with electric cars (or one of them, at least) is that the battery technology is not really up to the ambitions of car makers. Chevrolet’s Volt (aka Opel Ampera) is a good case in point. Tellingly, a Toyota tecchy referred to the science behind the Chevvy Volt as ‘Vaporware’, and the whole project is founded on the expectation that the technolgy will develop quickly enough to make the car a reality.
