Technical Writing Services in English
This service is intended for Chinese, Japanese and other foreign companies. Manuals can be sent either in
approximate English or in the original Japanese or Chinese (other languages available on request).  We will
turn these into clear and perfect English using the services of Barbara Soutar, BA English. She specializes in
technical writing and works with our electronic and technical staff to get scientific and technical specifications
correctly translated. 

We charge  $100 per hour for this work.  Short manuals can be completed in only one or two days, often costing
less than $1000 each.  We rely on foreign engineering students from the University of Victoria for the translation
services.   Free updates are offered for one year on our documentation if errors are discovered later.

Other services include supplying local North American contacts for your company.  We also offer product design
services, with an English technical manual included in the price of the design. 

All work is carried out using OpenOffice.org which is a free software package that can be used to create both
Microsoft Word documents and Adobe Acrobat formats.  This software is also free of virus vulnerabilities that
Microsoft Word is famous for.   Sample documentation available on request ... please email isoutar@microsec.net.

Radiation Hormesis Experimentation Samples
We are offering calibrated low level radioactive beads for biologists or medical workers working
with the beneficial effects of low level radiation in biological systems.   The beads selected give
off 1 microsievert/hour and are classified as safe for use in jewellery.

Calibrated Uranium Glass Beads for Sale

Beads under normal light    /     Beads under UV light

Microsec is offering calibrated uranium glass beads for researchers.   The uranium
is locked into the glass matrix and cannot escape unless you crush the glass to a fine
powder.   Even then the uranium content is less than 2% of the glass.  

The small bead cluster shown puts out 1.1 microsieverts/hour.  Each set of beads is
calibrated with a geiger counter prior to shipping.
   These are jewellery grade uranium
beads which have been popular for almost
200 years and are safe both to wear and to ship
in the mail.


Here are the prices for our bead clusters based on nuclear radiation output.
The beads are rated based on the microsievert / hour readings from a geiger
counter. 

The following are the strengths offered for a necklace:


1 uSv/hour $20 / set of 2 beads on string.
2 uSv/hour $22 / set of 3 beads on string.
3 uSv/hour $24 / set of 4 beads on string.
4 uSv/hour $26 / set of 5 beads on string.

Electric Tour Boat Building in Victoria BC

Microsec R&D Inc wants to collaborate with a local boat builder to create boats similar to the plug-in
electric boat featured at the Chicago World's  Fair of 1893.   This amazing fleet
of 55 36 foot long
boats carried during two years over a million passengers in an almost
silent powered electric boat. 
They made a profit of over $300,000 in 1893 to 1894.   In
today's money that is 30 million!  


historic electric boat from 1893

We would like to collaborate with an established local boat builder in Victoria  BC  to  bring
this kind of silent tour boat into existence once again.    Smaller format boats 
could be
created for family use in the inner harbour or in lakes that have outlawed
gasoline engines.  
Our work with hydrogen and solar technologies allows
hybrid energy sources to be added.
a plug-in electric design.   For many people
the plug in electric is the ultimate in simplicity
and silent operation.  

We envision using a submerged electric engine for absolutely silent boating.   Our experience
with hydrogen and solar opens up the possibilities for on route charging and
increasing the
range of such boats.   The plug in electric version however is the ultimate
in simplicity for tour
boats. Modern battery technology will improve the range
as compared to what was possible in
1893.

If you are a boat builder in Victoria ... please consider working with us to create electric boats
for Canadian waters.   We thought we were pioneers in electric boats but historical
research
has shown that the concept is simple and was popular a century ago!
