What's going on with our sp?

[tini5] 07/8/2018 09:52

Sofa raided...

[woodpeckers] 07/8/2018 09:47

It's another exchange Andy. Our shares are traded on both.

[tini5] 07/8/2018 09:44

Time to raid the sofa.

Andy, presuming your ??? was aimed at my post, VRS>GB is the NEX market, just go to AddShare at the top of your monitor and put in VRS.GB and you will get a new section below your LSE list of shares headed NEX.

£1 beckons for this grossly overvalued stock. Should get there by Friday.

[andymoore07] 07/8/2018 09:21

????? What is that??

[pshevlin] 07/8/2018 09:15

Looks like the seller is back and prepared to take a bit less.

[spike_1] 07/8/2018 09:15

Andy - blue not broken, simply resting ;0)

[woodpeckers] 07/8/2018 09:11

Andy, look at VRS.GB - much prettier colour ;-)

[andymoore07] 07/8/2018 09:01

I think the Blue is broken on my ADVFN!

[adejuk] 07/8/2018 09:00

we know this is a paradigm change
what we need now is deals with £ attached
nr knows this

Hadn't really looked at the WMG website before (surprisingly as I know we have a close relationship with them).

Just found this page there....would be surprised if we aren't involved based on the fact that Neill has mentioned Range Rover a few times too...

ULTRAN: Ultra Lightweight Rear Drive Unit (RDU)



“An innovation project that sets out bold and high risk engineering goals is exactly the type of R&D we want to see. This project achieves 25% lower mass than the current production unit which is absolutely incredible!”

Huawei batteries/WMG -could that be linked to our rns 02/07/18 ?

"Versarien has been working with WMG (Warwick Manufacturing Group) and their partner companies and scientists at the universities of Warwick and Cambridge to collaborate on the production of power storage devices such as batteries and supercapacitors using Versarien's proprietary Nanene graphene nano platelets. Significant advances have been made through incorporating the Company's high quality graphene into these devices and the Company looks forward to commercial products becoming available in due course."

Precious Invisibility: using graphene.

How do you become invisible to a device that doesn’t need visible light to see you?
Thermal imaging cameras, which can be useful in daylight as well night, work by detecting infrared radiation. As the name hints, infrared radiation begins just beyond the red end of the visible light spectrum. It ranges from a wavelength of 700 nanometers (nm) all the way to a wavelength of 1 millimeter (mm).
At normal body temperature, humans give off heat in the form of infrared radiation at wavelengths of around 10 micrometers (μm). Consequently, when viewed with a thermal camera, we light up quite spectacularly against an often cooler background. Moreover, that background temperature can itself be quite variable. As such, a thermal camera is an incredibly difficult to fool.
An effective thermal camouflage requires an engineering hat-trick. You need a material that is flexible, can adapt to different temperatures, and can do so extremely quickly. Some of the difficulties encountered in the development of thermal camouflage so far include poor temperature variability, slow response times, and the requirement for rigid materials, to name a few.

Now Coskun Kocabas at University of Manchester in the UK, along with colleagues at MIT as well as Bilkent University and the Izmir Institute of Technology in Turkey, have developed a flexible camouflage system that blends with background temperatures within seconds.
To achieve this, they needed graphene, a few ions, some nylon and a little gold.
The system involves two flexible electrodes: the top electrode is made up of layers of graphene while the bottom electrode is made of heat-resistant nylon coated with gold. Between them sits a liquid of positively and negatively charged ions. In the presence of a small voltage, the ions travel into the graphene, which is then able to absorb infrared radiation being emitted by the wearer.

Altogether, the ultra-flexible material is less than 50 micrometers thin, which is in the ballpark of a human hair. Moreover, the material is adaptable, and can emit heat when needed to match its surroundings.
“By combining active thermal surfaces with a feedback mechanism, we demonstrate realization of an adaptive thermal camouflage system which can reconfigure its thermal appearance and blend itself with the varying thermal background in a few seconds,” the authors explain in their paper, which has been published in the journal Nano Letters.
“Furthermore, we show that these devices can disguise hot objects as cold and cold ones as hot.”
The material could be incorporated into fabrics for wearable camouflage, but it also has potential uses beyond thermal invisibility and could be quite useful in the development of better heat shield coatings for satellites and other space-craft.

Jumped in at 121.9

[haz101] 07/8/2018 08:01

Being quoted 122.5

[spike_1] 07/8/2018 07:53

Boring I know - but Singer yet to show on the MM's. My bet is they show at 121 bid again which suggests to me that either they no longer have a big seller OR
that the big seller will only sell on a rising price from here, in other words will wait for more news to get the volume that suits them. sg?

Edit: Singer now there at 121 - open is not down .5 it is as close yesterday 121 - 124

6 hours ago on Twiitter NR has been asked this "@neillricketts having listened to last weeks j.Waite interview would ask U NOT to go anywhere nr. 'China 4 manufacturing' unless U are absolutely 100% happy VRS processes/IP protected. .. They'll copy anything .. USA instead?"........Neills answer "We aren't going to do anything unless the deal is right anywhere, we have a lot of options and only the right ones will get through. Funding, support, ip and route to market are just some of the factors in no particular order. A lot of work has been achieved, a lot still to do."

The California info you posted is inorganic chemicals so not graphene - too much time wasting speculation on here
