It is very clear that we are using considerably
less fuel this year as a result of the Fitch
Fuel Catalyst’s installation as we have
had the opportunity to review similar results
in June, 2002 for the Boiler Operation, in which
we have recorded 64.5% Occupancy (June 2002)
, however, consumed 102,840 Liters of Diesel
Fuel for the same period.

This therefore equates to an improvement in
Boiler Efficiencies of approximately 33.9 %.
The continual support is deeply appreciated
as further advancements and improvements are
still in progress with the Generator Plant as
we expect to see some very good results this
month.

| After three weeks testing the Fitch
Fuel Catalyst on our Mangsang Water Treatment
Plant power generator, we have experienced over
10% reduction in fuel usage......This is in addition
to the engine running much smoother and producing
almost no smoke while running. Thank you for the
opportunity to test this unit and provide us the
potential of cost savings and reduced emissions
on all our liquid fueled equipment. |

"Dear Fitch, Just a few words to let you know
that we have completed our test using kerosene,
gasoline, and old BioDiesel, using the same
Fitch Fuel Catalyst. These catalysts are designed
to be used for a lifetime, by the way, so no
need to remove and replace them. Simply leave
it in your tank. Testing of all the fuels (kerosene,
gasoline, & biodiesel) we noticed the following:
1. Shorter pre-heating time. Knocked off 10
- 15% of the preheating time.
2. Bright light. Just looking at it, you will
see a much brighter light. Totally, amazing!!
3. With old biodiesel (very thick - over 3
yrs. old) the lantern worked, flawlessly as
though the biodiesel was brand new. Worked more
like kerosene easier startup, bright/white light,
and with no odor.
4. Decreased odors, and, in some cases, no
odor. 5. Pumping time was decreased for all
three fuels. . We did not have to add pressure
to the lantern, for approx. 2 - 4 hrs. During
the initial run-time of 8 hrs. Eddie only had
to apply pressure to the lanterns 1 - 2 times.
6. Cleaner burn, around the mantle (glass did
not fog up or build up) & no "pulsating" was
observed.
7. Fuel Efficiency Increase: 1-Quart of fuel
ran 1 - 2 hours longer, than normal.
Eddie uses these lanterns, while fishing,
so he takes the opportunity to test new products,
during that time. Lucky, fella!!!! Needless
to say, BriteLyt, Inc. is extremely impressed,
with the overall performance of the Fitch Fuel
Catalyst.
Overall, I would recommend this product to
be used in the lanterns we sell, as our testing
was based on periods of testing the lantern
for a 3-day period, at 8-hr and 12-hr. intervals.
We used Fitch Fuel Catalyst in old fishing lanterns
too, with excellent results.
Thank you and God Bless"

CARLSON OIL AND HEATING

| This year I decided to become involved
with the Fitch in my everyday business. I own
and operate an Oil Burner/Heating Service company.
I bought one Fitch in-line unit to test efficiency
on my Becket oil burner. I was happy to see an
increase in combustion efficiency from 83% to
85% and the boiler came up to temperature quicker
just by installing the Fitch unit. An increase
of over 1.5% combustion efficiency is significant
in my business. I recommend the Fitch Fuel Catalyst
to my customers through a mailer and have sold
and installed numerous units. We conduct the efficiency
tests before and after the Fitch installations
and in every case improvement is achieved. Thanks
for the great product. |

Slant Fin Furnace, Riello 40 Burner.
We have run 3 sessions of production with the
Fitch unit and have found about a 15% savings
in fuel consumption. This has translated into
about a $900.00 savings during the combined
three sessions period.There is no doubt that
the Fitch Fuel Catalyst has performed as well
if not better than you said it would. We now
plan to install units on all of our other furnace's
through out our whole operation.

50 HP Volcano Starfire Biolers with Weishaupt
Burners.
When comparing the brightness of the flame
with the Fitch catalyst to that of the furnace
without, the Fitch equipped burner burns much
brighter. When it came time to clean the furnace
this year, the furnace equipped with the Fitch
had far less burner residue and what little
residue there was, cleaned away easily.

| Application: Propane....at the end
of the session we compared the numbers again and
found that the cost of operation showed a savings
difference of $565.19 less for barn#1 than barn#2.
A noticiable difference. This translates into
about a 18% to 20% savings in fuel not to mention
the extra size of barn#1. We are very pleased
with the results from using the Fitch Fuel Catalyst.
I would recommend this product to all who wish
to save fuel and cut down on emissions.. |

| I have used over 700 liters less
this past winter and the sooting problem has been
pretty well eliminated. The unit has paid for
itself in the first year and saved me money besides.
Now it will continue to make me money, so to speak,
for the next 4 years! |

HB Boiler with a power flame burner
You can produce the same stack temperature
as before the Fitch in 33% less time. You should
show oil savings of at least 10%. Also, since
the oil burner is burning cleaner and over a
shorter period of time, the maintenance cost
should be lowered.
