Company description::
(San Luis Obispo, CA) --It's a story that is unique in every way. A successful invention/product
development veteran creates an innovative new technology that converts
typical engines into pollution free motors - novel and newsworthy in and of
itself. However, what this creative entrepreneur plans to do with his
patented-pending technology is what makes the story even more unique.
About Ron Meritt/Meritt International, Inc.
Ronald R. Meritt of Meritt International in San Luis Obispo, California is a
successful inventor and product development specialist who may be best known
as the inventor of the original portable car video player - Video Traveler:

Meritt's concept for mobile video units is currently being used in thousands
of vehicles worldwide. Meritt is now using that expertise to bring new
products to market and is adding a focus of developing "green products" that
are environmentally friendly.
About the Meritt International Pollution-Free Alternative Fuel Motor
Conversion Kit:
When installed on a gas combustion motor, the conversion kit allows the
motor to run on a
variety of alternate fuels or gasses and be virtually pollution free. Meritt
has designed the conversion kit to allow motors to run on either flammable
or non-flammable fuels, meaning that a properly converted motor using this
technology may run on just about any gas or liquid, including water.
Meritt actually began working on this technology back in the 1970's when the
gasoline crisis was at its peak. But the uncompleted project was set aside
as Meritt pursued other ventures. However, now, with gas prices potentially
rising to as much as $3 per gallon and the United States' increasing
dependence on foreign oil, this technology has new significance and
potential. So Meritt recently resurrected the project and after months of
fine-tuning he now has finalized a working prototype. Unlike the highly
publicized fuel-cell or hydrogen technologies that are in development right
now, this motor conversion kit is different because it is an upgrade kit
that potentially could be installed on almost any gas combustion engine used
in cars, trucks, boats, garden equipment, etc.
As evidenced on the downloadable video link above, Meritt successfully
installed his invention on a small 100 cc motorcycle engine to prove its
functionality and capabilities. The prototyped motor, which was recently
evaluated at a fully licensed motor vehicle smog inspection station in
California, emits a measured exhaust that is 99% pollution free. What's
more, the conversion kit allows the motor to actually exhaust high levels of
oxygen, making it possible to literally breathe the engine exhaust.
The design of the pollution-free motor is protected by a pending patent, and
many of the modifications are trade secrets known only to Meritt and his
development team. As far as providing additional information on the
technology, what can be mentioned is that there have been extensive internal
and external mechanical and electrical modifications to the prototype motor.
With further development, this first-stage technology has extensive market
potential for use in cars, trucks, boats, tractors, gas powered garden
equipment, generators and any other gas powered products.
Unique Marketing of the Technology - eBay Is The Way (May 10 - May 20, 2004)
Instead of the typical licensing avenues that similar technologies might be
subjected to, Meritt has decided to try a somewhat unorthodox yet creative
marketing angle. He will sell the rights to the technology and a working
prototype on eBay to the highest bidder, with no minimum bid. The online
auction start date will run from May 10 - May 20, 2004. The bids will be for
the
one-time technology transfer fee that includes pending patents, trade
secrets, a fully functional prototype engine, and all documentation
associated with this invention. It will give the buyer full profit making
capabilities with no future royalties going to Meritt International. Once
purchased, the buyer is free to further develop the technology for as many
industry applications as possible.
Meritt is confident that a corporation, university or entrepreneur will be
able to acquire his technology and take it to the next level. "Some day we
will deplete the global supply of oil, and when that happens, millions of
gas combustion engines will be waiting for an alternative fuel. Whoever owns
this technology owns the rights to a possible solution, and the opportunity
to generate a lot of money," says Meritt.
When asked why he is selling the rights and not developing this potentially
lucrative technology himself, Meritt responds, "It will require more
development
to take this technology to the next level. I have already managed a very
successful
company, and frankly, I need to keep my focus there rather than starting
another new company from scratch. I really want to see this technology
developed into a mainstream product that will help the environment, and I
feel this is the best way."
