New Hand Held Device Makes Finding 
Distance Between Cities Faster and Easier
 

Quick Mile, an innovative electronic device manufacturer, has announced the release of Quick Mile for retail sale. Quick Mile is a stand-alone hand held solution for calculating mileage between two cities in the US and Canada.

The Quick Mile mileage calculator is the first product of its kind to include the continental U.S. along with some cities in Canada. Quick Mile has over 110,000 mileage combinations, which include small and large towns. The destinations included in Quick Mile are listed alphabetically and the hand held device has a fast and slow scroll. This innovative device as described by one of the inventors is a must have for truckers, RV’s, the business traveler, vacationers and motorcycle riders.

“I wanted to design and build a small hand held device that would list a “From City and a To City” mileage in large readable characters to real places I wanted to go.” said Larry Coulter, the inventor of the Quick Mile.

Bobby Wright, a principle with Quick Mile said, ”It is a must have for anyone who travels. It is fast, miles to most cities in 15 seconds or less, can fit in your shirt pocket, doesn’t cost much, and if you know your ABC’s you can operate it. It will help you make planning a trip and calculating travel related expenses easy by providing accurate mileage and a more complete list of cities.”

Quick Mile has a suggested retail price of $19.95. Distributor and dealer inquires are requested.

Stabilus’ New Lift-O-Mat® INOX 
Combines Maximum Functionality with Corrosion Resistance
  

Stabilus, the world market leader in the design and manufacture of gas springs and hydraulic vibration dampers, introduces the Lift-O-Mat® INOX stainless steel gas springs for a variety of industries, including marine, medical, food processing, RV’s, kitchens and more. The Lift-O-Mat provides effortless opening and closing of doors and lids, and can securely hold a door in an open or closed position. With a compact and attractive design, the Lift-O-Mat is maintenance-free and easy to install.

The Lift-O-Mat INOX gas spring is constructed from 316 stainless steel to ensure a high level of protection against corrosive environments. Careful material selection of the components have resulted in a nearly iron-free product, with almost no effect on magnetic fields, such as those used in medical technology. Stabilus only uses environmentally friendly oils that are biodegradable and classified as “no hazard to water,” which is particularly important for the water supply and environmental industries.

Gas springs are a proven and reliable method of counterbalancing large covers and objects. They offer ideal capabilities for safely lifting, lowering and positioning heavy or cumbersome objects. More versatile than mechanical springs, gas springs offer the advantages of speed-controlled dampening, cushioned end motion, simple mounting, compact size, flat force curve, and a wide range of available forces.
