To assist vehicle owners, including commercial and municipal fleet operators, with additional technical support, Extreme Energy Solutions Inc., has released a new mobile app for their automotive emissions reduction technology, the Smart Emissions Reducer.

Roseburg, Oregon (PRWEB) April 25, 2017

Many commercial and municipal fleets have attempted to go green with their same machine, choosing the SMART Emissions Reducer as an alternative technology in serving their vehicle fleets, in order to reduce harmful toxic vehicle emissions because of the use of fossil fuels. As a result, many fleets which tried the SMART Emissions Reducer also saved on fuel, noting their vehicles gained in fuel efficiency, with results varying fleet to fleet.

Extreme Energy Solutions Inc., the provider of the SMART Emissions Reducer technology launched its latest mobile app to further support vehicle fleet owners and operators in the field; keeping at the touch of a screen, providing additional support materials and resources for fleets that have adopted the innovation.

The SMART Emissions Reducer mobile app is now available for download and use at the iTunes Apple Store at: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/smart-emissions-reducer/id1220536576

The SMART Emissions Reducer mobile app also is available for Android platforms via the Google Play Store at: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.BargainMobileApps.SER

The SMART Emissions Reducer has been tried and tested in industry recognized labs, including Roush Industries, Keshi Group and Free-Col Labs; showing consistency in the technology’s ability to deliver fewer vehicle emissions while providing the side benefit of fuel economy gains.

The SMART Emissions Reducer has also been vetted by scholars from Clarkson University, KAUST, a former member of the Department of Physics, University of California Santa Cruz, and the World Green Energy Symposium.

A series of commercial and municipal fleet owner-operators both domestically and internationally have taken a serious look at the SMART Emissions Reducer, providing a green tech solution with the opportunity to prove its form and functionality.

Commercial fleets that found success with the SMART Emissions Reducer include Go Green Inc. (Washington DC), Taxi Cabs in New York City and Southern California, and NASCO (Amman, Jordan).

Many municipal fleets enjoyed the duel benefits the SMART Emissions Reducer provided in the areas of environmental mitigation and fuel savings. The Philadelphia Parking Authority, County of Winnebago Highway Department and the City of Rockford all expressed their satisfaction in the device’s performance and ability to deliver.

The SMART Emissions Reducer has been known to reduce emissions up to 65% and increase fuel economy up to 10% with results available as much as third party labs and field testing could demonstrate. Results varied based on a number of variables; vehicle usage, types of vehicles, types of engines, types of fuel, driver habit and road conditions.

With much of the research, development and testing of the device completed, Extreme Energy Solutions was able to re-adjust the price of the technology so that the SMART Emissions Reducer can be in reach for the average vehicle owner or fleet operator; with price cut by almost half in some cases.

Most passenger cars, light duty pick-up trucks, vans, and SUV’s can be retrofitted with the SMART Emissions Reducer for as little as $249 per vehicle, while heavier duty trucks and buses can see the device under the hood for as little as $995 installed.

Extreme Energy Solutions has opted not to be left behind in the mobile app movement. They are now joining the ranks of the majority of businesses that are seizing the opportunity to increase customer engagement, revenue and brand awareness.

Communications Director of Extreme Energy Solutions, Jeff Smith shared, “With the rapid market adoption of the SMART Emissions Reducer, the next logical step was to create a mobile app for the product to enhance the consumer experience. This new tool allows us to offer our customers additional ease and convenience of service as well as providing a platform for us to increase customer engagement, which helps foster community and build more brand loyalty.”

The SMART Emissions Reducer mobile app is expected to be utilized vigorously this year by fans of the brand. Extreme Energy Solutions plans on maximizing the use of this tool by creating several exciting new vehicle information tools to help vehicle owners track and keep record of fuel mileage/usage and emissions results for its mobile app users in 2017. For now, the app provides SMART Emissions Reducer clients access to test data, product service information, and the latest news from the technology’s parent company.

You can find out more about the SMART Emissions Reducer by watching their latest premiere video on YouTube, which has over 1 million views or visit their corporate website at: http://www.ExtremeEnergySolutions.net

These manufacturers’ reputations rely on their quality, service and supply chain reliability.

The multi-language enhancement, managed inside Gather Digital's content management system, makes it easy for meeting planners to define the base and supplemental languages for each event.

Chapel Hill, NC (PRWEB) April 26, 2017

Gather Digital is further advancing its leadership role in the mobile event app industry by enhancing its ability to support different languages across multiple events within a single app.

Event planners can now load content for multiple events into the Gather Digital mobile app and each event can offer a customized set of language options. Planners can easily manage those languages, and attendees can easily control their options. For each relevant event, the app will present to the user a list of the languages available; multilingual users can select and prioritize as they wish.

Managing all of this inside Gather Digital’s powerful content management system makes it easy for event planners to define the base and supplemental languages. And changes can be made very quickly. If, for example, a session’s room should shift at the last minute, the CMS provides one place to make a single change that is reflected in all languages.

Gather Digital is one of the few mobile event app providers to offer this service.

“We’re now able to provide an enhanced level of power and flexibility to our global clients who are offering multiple languages per event and are managing multiple events within a single app,” said Gather Digital CEO Jon Phillips. “Users can proactively choose the languages they wish to see within our app and move seamlessly between events.”

ABOUT GATHER DIGITAL

The new pricing tiers and plans options for Dash include ultra-competitive Basic Plan and Enhanced Feature Sets for Enterprises

San Jose, California (PRWEB) April 26, 2017

VirtualPBX is unrolling several new plans to compliment the success of their flagship VoIP for business platform, Dash. A team that focuses heavily on an open feedback loop with their customer base, VirtualPBX based the decision to increase their VoIP options in developing the new Basic, Pro, and Unlimited Dash Plans.

“We’re constantly researching the needs of our customers to perfect the features and functions of our VoIP products and network services,” said Lon Baker, VirtualPBX’s COO. “Much of the user feedback we generated while developing various features also proved to be illuminating on how we present our Dash Plans, as well.”

Dash was launched with the simple concept that enterprise-grade hosted telecommunications shouldn’t have to rely on enterprise-grade engineering knowhow to operate them. Furthering that concept of simplicity was the driving factor of introducing these new Dash Plan options, too. The Dash Pro and Dash Unlimited plans come with more value than any other Dash Plans before with new pools of minutes available and the most formidable array of features ever compiled in a Dash Plan. Additionally, the introduction of the Dash Basic plan represents a whole new level of service that addresses an often overlooked or underserved market.

“We invested a great deal of resources to make Dash Pro and Dash Unlimited the unparalleled leaders for exceedingly capable and value-packed hosted phone service,” Baker added. “We also dedicated an equal amount of time to ensure Dash Basic users couldn’t possibly find more features or better service for their budgets anywhere else.”

The new Dash Plans are available now and can be tailored to fit the budgets of any company with several pricing options, as well. By toggling between annual plans, monthly plans, and annual plans with monthly payment on any of the three new Dash Plans, customers can isolate precisely the right level of service and price that works for them.

For more information about the new Dash Plans and VirtualPBX hosted business phone service in general, visit VirtualPBX.com.

About VirtualPBX

VirtualPBX was founded in San Francisco in 1997 and brought some of the first commercially available hosted PBX service to market for small business owners. Born from the advent of the hosted telecom industry and driven by the innovative vision of its founders, VirtualPBX continues to deliver leading edge telephony products for business. Backed by award-winning, local, in-house support teams, VirtualPBX offers an array of services including disaster recovery, network monitoring and optimization, and professional system management.

Patent Estate has Also Expanded for Pyralux® Black Flexible Circuit Material

RESEARCH TRIANGLE PARK, N.C. (PRWEB) April 26, 2017

DuPont Electronics & Communications (DuPont) announced today that it has expanded its worldwide patent estate related to DuPont™ Kapton® black polyimide film, and DuPont™ Pyralux® black flexible circuit material, both sought after for applications such as mobile devices, computers, automotive and military electronics.

“Our Kapton® black polyimide film and Pyralux® black flexible circuit material enable high-reliability and top performance for leading edge and thin electronics,” said Avi Avula, global business director, DuPont. “As World Intellectual Property Day today celebrates, patents are a critical tool in protecting innovation and we are very proud that we continue to significantly add to our worldwide patent estate in this area.

The granted patent estate covers three key currently available products:

• DuPont™ Kapton® B and DuPont™ Kapton® MBC black polyimide films - homogeneous opaque films that can be used as substrates or coverlays.
• DuPont™ Pyralux® HXC and DuPont™ Pyralux® HXI flexible circuit materials - pre-coated coverlays with an epoxy adhesive coated on one side, ready to be bonded.
• Pyralux® LF-B - the acrylic coverlay variety of matte black polyimide film.

The matte black color of these products provides a uniform, aesthetically pleasing appearance to flexible printed circuit materials without diminishing key physical properties such as dielectric strength, tensile strength and dimensional stability. In addition to the aesthetics of the black film, the low-gloss black film can provide functional benefits in applications where color-control or light absorption are important. These products are available in a broad range of thicknesses, including ultra-thin versions as thin as 6μm.

Building on patents originally issued in the United States entitled “Matte Finish Polyimide Films and Methods Relating Thereto,” patents have now been granted in Europe, China, Japan and Taiwan. A related U.S. patent entitled “Pigmented Polyimide Films and Methods Relating Thereto,” has now been granted in China, Japan and Taiwan. Additionally, three patents entitled “A Multilayer Film” relating to ultra-matte black polyimide films were recently granted in the United States.

Kapton® polyimide film is manufactured only by DuPont and Du Pont-Toray Co.

DuPont (NYSE: DD) has been bringing world-class science and engineering to the global marketplace in the form of innovative products, materials, and services since 1802. The company believes that by collaborating with customers, governments, NGOs, and thought leaders we can help find solutions to such global challenges as providing enough healthy food for people everywhere, decreasing dependence on fossil fuels, and protecting life and the environment.

Karen Kalliopi Papagapitos tells all in her new memoir, "Bright Friends."

NEW YORK (PRWEB) April 27, 2017

In “Bright Friends: The First Twenty-Five Years of Visitations Tucson, Arizona 1947-1972” (published by Balboa Press), author Karen Kalliopi Papagapitos details 25 years of visitations by “otherworldly beings” who influenced her life journey with their valuable lessons about love and Earth.

Papagapitos shares that she was 4 when she was visited by otherworldly beings who told her they were her family. She could come to refer to these beings as her “Bright Friends.”

“I have kept silent about these visitations by my benevolent Bright Friends. … for sixty-five years,” says Papagapitos. “I can no longer maintain my silence.”

Through a lifetime of open exchanges, Papagapitos reveals how her Bright Friends imparted wisdom that inspired her to believe in and ultimately share with the world the power of their goodness as well as their mission to care for and preserve the planet.

Papagapitos hopes her book will shed a light on the link between humankind and her Bright Friends: “My Bright Friends … are scientists and explorers from another world that is connected to our own,” she explains. “They are also our relatives. … Whatever constitutes a ‘Gold Particle’ in the universe, we all possesses it; both my Bright Friends and humans. It is given (to) us by our creator, our God, from whom all things follow.”
