weak to medium currents. Mass production com- mences in August 2011. The SDDH Series is a waterproof switch compatible with weak to medium currents between 10mA and 4.5A. Setting mechanical parts of contacts within a seamless casing, sealing with adhesive, and cove- ring the knob (the moving part) with rubber ensures excellent water resistance. Water resistance is IP68- equivalent, indicating the switch can even be opera- ted submerged in water. Insulation is improved with a 9.2mm pitch between tab terminals.

LPS ELECTRIC has developed the SDDH Series waterproof switch, which is compatible with

• Revenues decreased to $0.5 million from $1.5m; • Gross margin of $(0.2) million compared to $0.4m; • Operating expenses of $3.8 million compared to $5.5 million;

• Net loss of $3.0 million compared to $4.9 million; • Year-to-date cash burn excluding financing activities of $9.1 million compared to $9.7 million.

Altairnano‘s cash and cash equivalents decreased by $2.1 million, from $4.7 million at December 31, 2010 to $2.6 million at June 30, 2011.

Moreover, Altairnano has signed a contract with the Hawai‘i Natural Energy Institute (HNEI) of the University of Hawai‘i at Manoa to supply a one-megawatt ALTI-ESS energy storage system for a test of solar energy integration. Under the contract, Altairnano will provide the ALTI-ESS battery-based power management system to be tested on Hawaiian Electric‘s electric system to smooth the voltage and load profile with the aid of dynamic voltage controls and fast charge/discharge abilities.

“Altairnano technology was selected for this project based on its long cycle life and very rapid charge and
