Axis Technologies Receives Unprecedented Interest and Qualified Leads in Company's Daylight Harvesting Ballasts at Lightfair International 2008
Axis Ballasts Displayed in Other Booths by Fixture Manufacturers and Distributors
Axis Technologies Group, Inc. (PINKSHEETS: AXTG), a designer, manufacturer and marketer of a proprietary line of
energy saving and daylight harvesting electronic dimming ballasts for the
commercial lighting industry, has just returned from a highly successful
demonstration of the company's patented daylight harvesting fluorescent
light ballasts in the Daylighting Pavilion at the Lightfair International
Trade Show & Conference. Axis was one of only 27 companies that displayed
in the Daylighting Pavilion which is reserved for those select companies
that qualify to showcase their "green" daylight harvesting products.
Lightfair is one of the world's largest lighting tradeshows and took place
at the Las Vegas Convention Center in Las Vegas, Nevada on May 28-30. The
show was attended by more than 18,000 lighting distributors, lighting
engineers, architects, building facility managers, manufacturers'
representatives, government officials, "Green" building officials, lighting
fixture manufacturers, Energy Service Companies, etc. The Axis ballasts
were also included in several other company's display booths as part of
their new fixture line-up.
Kip Hirschbach, CEO of Axis Technologies, Inc., said, "This was our fifth
year of displaying at Lightfair, and this show drew far and away the most
interest from attendees in our ballasts. There were many times that all
five of the Axis personnel at the display booth were busy talking to
interested attendees. The fact that several fixture manufacturers showed
their new 'energy-efficient' fixtures with Axis ballasts installed was
especially noteworthy, and shows that the Axis dimming ballasts are being
accepted as the ballast of choice for daylight harvesting applications. A
preliminary review showed a total of over 500 leads for follow-up by Axis
distributors and reps." Hirschbach emphasized, "This burgeoning interest
has contributed to Axis sales in 2008 already surpassing all of 2007 sales
and we look forward to a record year in both revenue and profitability."
Investors interested in being included in the company's e-mail database for

About the Axis Ballast:
A standard "ballast" is an electronic component that regulates voltage in
light fixtures. Axis Technologies Group, Inc. has developed an innovative
new ballast with the aim of expanding daylight harvesting into mainstream
lighting applications. The patented Axis Dimming/Daylight Harvesting
Ballast is a new technology that transforms the ballast, a once standard
lighting industry staple, into a dynamic energy saving system that can
reduce lighting energy costs by up to 70%. The Axis Ballast utilizes an
individual photo sensor to automatically adjust the amount of electrical
current flowing to the light fixture and then dims or increases lighting in
conjunction with the amount of available sunlight. The Axis Ballast
avoids "over-lit" conditions that increase energy costs by harvesting and
utilizing free daylight from windows or skylights. As the amount of
available daylight fluctuates, the Axis Ballast keeps lighting
"tuned" to the desired level in a designated area.
