RESEARCH TRIANGLE PARK, N.C., June 26 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ — Cyberlux
Corporation (OTC Bulletin Board: CYBL) announced today that the Company posted
record revenues of $137,284 for the week ending June 20, 2008. The Company
produced and shipped BrightEye Dual Lighthead System orders in record time for
immediate deployment to Iraq with National Guard units from New York, Indiana
and Minnesota. In addition, the Company verified that its production and
distribution processes will support the output needed to fulfill the United
States Air Force production requirements.
Over the last year, Cyberlux has supplied BrightEye systems to state-level
National Guard and Air National Guard units, generating $650,000 in revenue
thus far in 2008. The National Guard and Air National Guard revenue is
incremental to the 2008 Department of Defense Appropriations legislation that
allocates $8.0 million for the equipping of the United States Air Force with
Cyberlux Portable Illumination Systems.
“We are excited to achieve this new revenue milestone as we scale the
Company’s operations to meet the growing demand for our Portable Illumination
Systems within the U.S. Armed Services, including the National Guard and Air
National Guard. As the use of our BrightEye systems continues to expand across
the state-level National Guard and Air National Guard units, our position as
the leading provider of portable solid-state LED lighting solutions is
solidified,” said Mark Schmidt, president and chief operating officer for
Cyberlux. “Satisfying these orders is the next step in deploying our BrightEye
tactical lighting solutions within the National and Air National Guard’s
operations, but this is truly just the beginning of a longer-term lighting
technology transition from incandescent-based lighting to solid-state LED
lighting within the U.S. Armed Services. With the fulfillment of these initial
BrightEye system orders, there are still more than 40 additional states that
have requirements for light-weight, rapidly deployable lighting systems.”
The Cyberlux Portable Illumination System products are designed as visible
and night-vision compatible illumination systems for general mission tactical
lighting, force protection, maintenance lighting, expeditionary base
protection, disaster first responders, and other rapidly deployable
high-intensity lighting applications. Using advanced optics, advanced
solid-state lighting technology and light-weight Li-On battery power, all
contained in an easily transportable wheeled case, the Cyberlux tactical
lighting systems are capable of eliminating the space-consuming bulk, noise
and energy consumption of the current generator-powered incandescent lighting
systems. Unique to the marketplace, the Cyberlux Portable Illumination Systems
provides both white and night-vision compatible covert lighting, a capability
not available in traditional lighting systems.
The Cyberlux Portable Illumination System products are available through
the General Services Administration (GSA) Federal Supply Schedule 56 for
Specialty Lighting products under Cyberlux GSA Contract GS-07F-9409S. In
addition, Cyberlux Portable Illumination Systems have National Stocking Number
designations which make these products available to all purchasing
organizations within the U.S. government as well as the global military
community.
