The Suppression of Fuel Savers and Alternate Energy Resources 517
started a test engine. At the end of the test, the battery had made the fantastic
total of 606,969 consecutive starts! This is equivalent to starting
your car thirty times every day for fifty years!
The Life-Long Battery was also subjected to extreme heat and cold
tests. For example, it was frozen in a block of ice for 48 hours at 70°
below zero. The moment it was broken out of its icy prison, it performed
with its usual efficiency!
The secret of the Life-Long 10-Year Battery's great power and long life
is the sintered Cadalloy plates (derived from Cadmium); indestructible
capillary separators which keep plates moist and active; and the special
mild-type electrolyte eliminating the strong acids that ordinarily corrode
the inside of a battery.The Life-Long Battery differs from ordinary leadacid
batteries in other ways as well.
What does the Life-Long Battery do for you It makes your car lights
up to 50 percent brighter. You get faster, surer starts in all weather which
means more efficient use of gasoline. You need add water only once a
year, giving you a truly attention-free battery. Most important advantage
is the 10-year service period, guaranteed by the factory. The bonded guarantee
is backed by a state licensed company and remains in effect no matter
how many times you transfer your battery from car to car, for the serial
number of each Life-Long Battery is permanently registered for your
protection.
Surprisingly enough, Life-Long Batteries cost no more than ordinary
premium batteries. 6-volt Life-Long Auto Batteries are just $29.95 and
12-volt, $34.95.
INVENTOR'S MYSTERIOUS MOTOR RUNS ON POWER
DRAWN PROM ATMOSPHERE
From Popular Science, October 1952
When Cmdr. Ivan Monk, who designs big turbines for the Navy, is
pestered by inventors of perpetual-motion machines, he points to a device
on his desk that goes them one better—for it works. It is a wheel that spins
with no apparent source of power. Commander Monk built it in his spare
time, and patented it, since it may find use in clocks, toys and advertising
displays.
Actually it is a rotary heat engine, run by temperature difference between
its parts. The wheel is at room heat; the long cloth-covered hub,
kept dampened with water, is cooled by evaporation. A low-boiling-point
liquid, Freon, circulates between wheel and hub, vaporizing in the wheel
and condensing in the hub. Valves maintain an unequal weight of liquid
on opposite sides of the wheel and gravity does the rest, to turn it.
